SNOW THROWING TIPS

• Always operate the snow thrower with the engine at

full throttle. Full throttle offers the best performance.

•

Go slower in deep, freezing or heavy wet snow. Use the

drive speed control, NOT the throttle, to adjust speed.

• It is easier and more efficient to remove snow im me-

di ate ly after it falls.

•

The best time to remove snow is the early morning. At

this time the snow is usually dry and has not been ex-

posed to the direct sun and warming tem per a tures.

• Slightly overlap each successive path to ensure all

snow will be removed.

• Throw snow downwind whenever possible.
• Ad

just the skid plates to proper height for current snow

con di tions. See “TO ADJUST SKID PLATES” in this

section of this manual.

• For extremely heavy snow, re duce the width of snow

removal by over lap ping previous path and moving

slowly.

•

Keep engine clean and clear of snow during use. This

will help air flow and extend engine life.

•

After snow-throwing is completed, allow engine to run for

a few minutes to melt snow and ice off the engine.

• Clean the entire snow thrower thoroughly after each

use and wipe dry so it is ready for next use.

WARNING: Do not operate snow

thrower if weather conditions im pair

visibility. Throwing snow dur ing a

heavy, windy snowstorm can blind you

and be hazardous to the safe operation

of the snow thrower.
