WARNING: This snow thrower is capable of amputating hands and feet and throwing objects.
Failure to observe the following safety instructions could result in serious injury.
TRAINING
1. Read this operating and service instruction manual carefully. Be thoroughly familiar with the controls and the
proper use of the snow thrower. Know how to stop the snow thrower and disengage the controls quickly.
2. Never allow children to operate the snow thrower. Never allow adults to operate the snow thrower without
proper instruction.
3. Keep the area of operation clear of all persons, particularly small children and pets.
4. Exercise caution to avoid slipping or falling especially when operating in reverse.
PREPARATION
1. Thoroughly inspect the area where the snow thrower is to be used and remove all doormats, sleds, boards,
wires, and other foreign objects.
2. Disengage all clutches before starting the engine (motor).
3. Do not operate the snow thrower without wearing adequate winter outer garments. Wear footwear that will
improve footing on slippery surfaces. Avoid loose fitting clothing that can get caught in moving parts.
4. Handle fuel with care; it is highly flammable.

d. Replace fuel cap securely and wipe up spilled fuel.
e. Never store fuel or snow thrower with fuel in the tank inside of a building where fumes may reach an open
flame or spark.
f. Check fuel supply before each use, allowing space for expansion as the heat of the engine (motor) and/or
sun can cause fuel to expand.
g. Never fill containers inside a vehicle or on a truck or trailer bed with a plastic liner. Always place containers
on the ground, away from vehicle, before filling.
h. When practical, remove gas-powered equipment from the truck or trailer and refuel it on the ground. If this
is not possible, then refuel such equipment on a trailer with a portable container, rather than from a
gasoline dispenser nozzle.
i. Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel tank container opening at all times, until refueling is
complete. Do not use a nozzle lock-open device.
j. If fuel is spilled on clothing, change clothing immediately.
5. Let engine (motor) and snow thrower adjust to outdoor temperatures before starting to clear snow.

inspect snow thrower for any damage, and repair the damage before restarting and operating the snow
thrower.
6. If the snow thrower should start to vibrate abnormally, stop the engine (motor) and check immediately for the
cause. Vibration is generally a warning of trouble.
7. Stop the engine (motor) whenever you leave the operating position, before unclogging the auger/impeller
housing or discharge chute and when making any repairs, adjustments, or inspections.
8. When cleaning, repairing, or inspecting, make certain the auger/impeller and all moving parts have stopped
and all controls are disengaged. Disconnect the spark plug wire and keep the wire away from the spark plug
to prevent accidental starting.
