GENERAL SAFETY
1. Read the operating and service instruction
manual carefully. Be thoroughly familiar
with the controls and the proper use of the
equipment. Know how to stop the unit and
disengage the controls quickly.
2. Never allow children under 16 years old to
operate the equipment. Never allow adults
to operate the equipment without proper
instruction.
3. Thrown objects can cause serious injury.
Keep the area of operation clear of all
persons, particularly small children,
and pets. Plan your snow discharge pattern
to prevent throwing material toward cars,
structures, roads and people.
4. Exercise caution to avoid slipping or falling,
especially when operating in reverse.
5. Keep in mind that the operator or user
is responsible for accidents or hazards
occurring to other people or their property.
6. Never use the snowblower under the
influence of alcohol or medication, or if you
are tired or ill.
PREPARATION FOR USE
1. Thoroughly inspect the area where the
equipment is to be used and remove all
doormats, sleds, boards, wires, and other
foreign objects.
2. Disengage all clutch handles before starting
the motor.
3. Do not operate the equipment without
wearing adequate winter garments. Wear
footwear which will improve footing on
slippery surfaces.
4. Adjust the auger housing height to clear
gravel or crushed rock surface.
5. Never attempt to make any adjustments
while the engine is running (except where
specifically recommended in the manual).
6. Let engine and machine adjust to outdoor
temperatures before starting to clear snow.
7. The operation of any powered machine
can result in foreign objects being thrown
into the eyes. Always wear safety glasses
or eye shields during operation, or while
performing an adjustment or repair.
8. Inspect the auger and impeller before
starting to ensure that there is no ice build
up.
SAFE HANDLING OF GASOLINE
To avoid severe injury or property damage use
high levels of care while handling gasoline.
Gasoline is an extremely flammable substance
and the vapours are explosive. Serious personal
injury can occur when gasoline is spilled on
yourself or your clothes, which can ignite. If you
come into contact with gasoline, wash affected
areas of skin and change clothing immediately.
1. Use only an approved gasoline container.
2. Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes and
other sources of ignition prior to working
with or near gasoline.
3. Never refuel machine within closed spaces.
4. Never remove gas cap or add fuel while the
engine is hot or running.
5. Allow engine to cool at least two minutes
before refueling.
6. Do not over fill fuel tank. Keep fuel level at
least ½ in. (1.27 cm) below bottom of filler
neck to provide space for fuel expansion.
7. Replace gasoline cap and tighten securely.

5
SAFETY INFORMATION
8. If gasoline is spilled, wipe it off the engine
and equipment. Move machine to another
area. Wait 5 minutes before starting the
engine.
9. Never store the machine or fuel container
inside where there is an open flame, spark
or pilot light (e.g. furnace, water heater,
space heater, clothes dryer etc.).
10. Allow machine to cool at least 5 minutes
before storing.
11. 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 your vehicle before filling.
12. If possible, 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.
13. Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of
the fuel tank or container opening at all
times until fueling is complete. Do not use
gas cans with nozzle lock-open devices.
OPERATION
1. Do not put hands or feet near or under
rotating parts. Keep clear of the discharge
opening at all times.
2. Exercise extreme caution when operating
on or crossing gravel drives, walks, or roads.
Stay alert for hidden hazards or traffic.
3. After striking a foreign object, stop the
engine, remove the spark plug, thoroughly
inspect the snowblower for any damage,
and repair the damage before restarting
and operating the snowblower.
4. If the unit should start to vibrate
abnormally, stop the engine and check
immediately for the cause. Vibration is
generally a warning of trouble. Vibration
typically indicates a mechanical problem
has occurred.
5. Stop the engine whenever you leave the
operating position, before unclogging the
auger housing or discharge guide, and when
making any repairs, adjustments,
or inspections.
6. Before cleaning, inspecting or repairing any
parts of the snowblower ensure the auger
has stopped moving. Disconnect the spark
plug wire and keep it away from the plug to
prevent accidental starting.
7. Before leaving the machine unattended,
disengage all control levers, stop the engine
and remove the safety key.
8. Do not run the engine indoors. Exhaust
fumes are dangerous.
9. Do not clear snow across the face of slopes.
Exercise extreme caution when changing
direction on slopes. Do not attempt to clear
steep slopes.
10. Never operate the snowblower without
proper guards, plates or other safety
protective devices in place.
11. Never operate the snowblower near glass
enclosures, automobiles, window wells,
etc., without proper adjustment of the
snow discharge angle. Keep children and
pets away.
12. Do not overload the machine capacity by
attempting to clear snow at too fast a rate.
13. Never operate the machine at high
transport speeds on slippery surfaces.
Use care when reversing.

14. Never direct discharge at bystanders or
allow anyone in front of the unit.
15. Disengage power to the impeller when
snowblower is transported or not in use.
16. Use only attachments and accessories
approved by the manufacturer of
snowblower.
17. Never operate the snowblower without
good visibility or light. Always be sure of
your footing, and keep a firm hold on the
handles. Walk; never run.
18. Take all possible precautions when leaving
the machine unattended. Disconnect the
power take-off and stop the engine.
19. Keep all nuts, bolts and screws tight to
be sure the equipment is in safe working
condition;
20. Replace worn or damaged parts for safety;
Use only genuine replacement parts and
accessories.
21. This snowblower is not intended for use by
persons (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities,
or lack of experience and knowledge,
unless they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of the appliance
by a person responsible for their safety.
22. Be careful while working on the machine or
clearing a blockage in the auger or impeller
to ensure that fingers and hands do not
become crushed or cut.
23. Do not touch hot engine components like
the muffler, muffler guard or engine block
during operation of the snowblower as they
will cause burns.
24. Should the unit stop discharging snow
for any reason, release the controls to
stop and inspect for any lodged items or
damaged parts in the auger housing.
CLEARING A CLOGGED DISCHARGE CHUTE
Hand contact with the rotating impeller inside
the discharge chute is the most common cause
of injury associated with snowblowers. Never
use your hand to clean out the discharge chute
or auger assembly.
To clear the chute:
1. SHUT THE ENGINE OFF!
2. Wait 10 seconds to be sure the impeller
blades have stopped rotating.
3. Always use a clean-out tool. DO NOT use
your hands.
MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
1. Check shear bolts, engine mounted bolts,
etc., at frequent intervals for proper
tightness to sure the equipment is in safe,
working condition.
2. Never store the machine with fuel in the
fuel tank inside a building where ignition
sources are present such as hot water
heaters, space heaters, clothes dryers or
any open flame sources. Allow the engine to
cool before storing in any enclosure.
3. Always refer to owner’s guide instructions
for important details if the snowblower is
to be stored for an extended period.
4. Maintain or replace safety and instructions
labels, as necessary.
5. Run the snowblower for one minute to clear
out packed snow and ice to prevent freeze-
up during storage.
