roads and surfaces around house and in the
garden.
13

•in accordance with the descriptions and safety
instructions mentioned in these Operating
Instructions.
Any other use is in conflict with the designation!
Appliance use in conflict with the designation or any
changes made to the appliance shall make the
manufacturer's warranty void.
The user warrants for damages caused to third parties and
their property by using the appliance.
Being the user of the appliance, you should carefully read
these Operating Instructions before the appliance is used
for the first time. Proceed in accordance with these
instructions and keep them for future reference or if the
appliance owner is changed.
Persons using the appliance must not be under the
influence of addictive drugs such as alcohol, drugs or
pharmaceuticals.
Young persons under 16 years of age must not handle the
appliance (local provisions may stipulate the user's
minimum age).
Persons, especially children, and pets should be kept
outside the dangerous area.
Never use the appliance inside rooms; to be used
outdoors only. Covered and high wall-enclosed paths may
only be worked on if safe operation can be provided. Pay
especially attention to windows and persons in the
immediate vicinity to prevent material and personal
damage.
Do not directly aim the appliance at persons.
Do not use the snow blower near glass, cars, windows,
etc. without setting the right snow throw-away angle.
Wear gloves, protective glasses, closefitting winter clothes
and solid shoes with a rough sole when working and
providing maintenance.
Never put parts of your body and clothes near rotating
parts.
Use the appliance only when appropriate lighting is
provided. The appliance and handles should always be
held tightly. Never run with the appliance.
Use the appliance only for removing light and loose snow
(fresh snow) up to the maximum snow height of app. 10
cm.
Icy snow and ice must not be removed by the snow
blower.
Put the appliance out of operation and store it in a closed
room only after the engine has cooled down.
Use the appliance only when it is in a perfect state
specified by the manufacturer.
Use only original spare parts of the manufacturer or spare
parts of other manufacturers approved by the
manufacturer.
Have the appliance repaired by an authorised shop only.
Do not adjust the appliance when the engine is running
(except for settings directly recommended by the
manufacturer).
The safety distance from the rotating tool given by the
sliding posts always needs to be kept.
Switch off the engine before running on surfaces such as
footpaths and court entrances on which you do not wish to
remove the snow. The appliance should always be used
when in a perfect and safe state.
Check the ground on which the appliance is going to be
used and remove any items that might be caught or thrown
off by the appliance.
Possible damage to the appliance: When the appliance
hits a foreign item (e.g. stones) or when there are
abnormal vibrations the appliance must be switched off
and checked for any damage. Have any detected damage
removed and resume working with the appliance only after
the damage has been removed.
The appliance should only be used when in a perfect state.

reach of the place of your work.
14

Being careful prevents slipping or falling, especially when
reversing.
Safety operation instructions
Do not put your hands and legs near the rotating parts.
Keep a safe distance from the eject hole.
Be extremely careful when running over or removing snow
off brash entrances, footpaths and paths. Be prepared for
unexpected risks or moving vehicles.
When you hit a foreign item, switch the engine off,
disconnect the cable from the spark plug and check
thoroughly the snow blower for any damage and remove it
if necessary – the snow blower can be put into operation
again and worked with now.
If the appliance starts abnormally vibrating, switch the
engine off and search for the cause immediately.
Generally, vibrations are a warning against operating
failure.
Switch the engine off every time you stop operating the
appliance, clean the working screw/rotor can/eject tube
and when executing repairs, adjusting and inspecting the
appliance.
When cleaning, repairing and checking the appliance,
make sure that the working screw/rotor and all moving
parts are stopped. Disconnect the spark plug cable and
secure it in a way to ensure it cannot touch the connector
and cause unwanted engine starting.
Pull the cable out of electric motors.
Do not remove snow across slopes. Be extremely careful
when changing movement direction on slopes. Never try to
remove snow on steep slopes.
Never use the snow blower when guards, sheets and other
protection components are not installed properly.
Never use the snow blower near glass surfaces, cars,
windows, pits, etc.; set the eject tube angle properly.
Children and pets must be in a sufficient distance from the
appliance.
Do not overload the appliance; do not try to remove snow
too quickly.
Never use the appliance at a high travelling speed on a
slippery surface. Be careful when reversing.
Never aim the eject tube at bystanders. Do not allow
anyone to stand before the appliance.
Disconnect the working screw/rotor drive when the snow
blower is to be transported or when not being used.
Use only extensions and accessories approved by the
snow blower manufacturer (e.g. wheel weights,
counterweight, cabins, etc.).
The snow blower must only be used when appropriate
visibility or good lighting is provided. Stand fast on the
ground and hold the handle tight by hands at all times.
Walk, never run.
Do not allow anybody to stand on the appliance.
Use the snow blower only when appropriate visibility or
good lighting is provided.
Take all safety measures when leaving the appliance
unattended.
Stop the output shaft drive, lower the extensions, shift into
neutral, apply the parking brake, switch off the engine and
pull out the key.
Caution!
At less powerful networks there might be short voltage
fluctuations when the appliance is switched on. This may
influence the function of other appliances, e.g. there might
be light intensity fluctuations. Where there is network
impendance of Zmax < 0.997 Ω, these negative influences
need not be expected (more information can be obtained
from your local energy supplier if necessary).
Use as designated
The product you have bought (electric snow blower) has
exclusively been designed for the following range of use:
Proper removal of snow from private footpaths, entrances
and parking places unless they fall within the general road
traffic regulation (e.g. public footpaths or entrances; for
that, permit specific for the given country needs to be
requested from appropriate authorities if necessary).
Only fresh snow is used as the processed material.
Any other use is in conflict with the designation. The
manufacturer is not liable for any indirect damages and
injuries. Please be sure to know that our appliances have
not been designed for industrial use.
Installation
Caution! The appliance needs to be switched off and
unplugged before maintenance, cleaning and installation.
The same must be done if the feeder cable is damaged,
incised or entangled.
Respect the system voltage: current source voltage must
correspond to the details on the appliance type label.
An extension cable with a too small wire cross section
significantly reduces the appliance performance. For
cables within a length of 25 m at least 3 x 1.5mm²; for
cables of more than 25 m of length at least 2.5mm².
Caution! Extension cables not approved must not be used.
The extension cable, plug and clutch must be watertight
and approved for outdoor use.
Cable communications must be dry and must not lie on the
ground.
If a cable drum is used, it needs to be unwound.
Some parts of the snow blower are not installed when
being transported to the buyer.
Screws, manual wheels, cable clips and screwdriver can
be found in a separate plastic bag. Installation is simple if
instructions below are followed.
Eject tube
Take the appliance and all components out of the box.
Remove all the 4 screws on the front cover and the front
part (pic. 2). Now insert the eject tube to the front hole of
the cover. Then, using the 4 screws, mount the front part
to the cover and tighten the screws in a way to make sure
the eject tube is in a safe position that can be freely turned
by 180°. Finally, using the 2 supplied wing screws, mount
the upper return flap to the eject tube.
Lower upper of the sliding post
Pull the other end of the adjusting rodding (coming from
the eject tube) on the lower part of the sliding post and
then push the lower part of the sliding post down to both
cover holes (pic. 3). Make sure that both supporting
clamps clicked into the bottom end of the lower part of the
sliding post on the cover.
Upper part of the sliding post
Bring the cable pull strain relief equipment for the
extension cable to the upper part of the sliding post (pic.
4). Make sure the cable pull strain relief equipment does
not later get in contact with the 2-point safety switch to
prevent undesirable blocking (pic. 11). Now connect both
post halves and screw them to each other using the
supplied screws with manual wheels. The adjusting
rodding is used to change the eject tube direction.
Mount the 2-point safety switch to the upper part of the
sliding post, using two screws, to the appropriate hole
unless the switch is already assembled to the upper part of
the sliding post (pic. 6).
15

Adjusting rodding for ejection opening
Put the eye bolt on the rodding (pic. 8-1).
Hook the rodding end on the pivot point and turn the
rodding to fix it to the post (pic. 8-2).
Secure the eye bolt on the bottom post with the wing nut
(pic. 9-1).
Wooden rod (pic. 10)
The wooden rod is primarily used to release the
accumulated and stuck ice remains in the eject tube.
Before removing the stuck material, the snow blower must
always be switched off and unplugged. Otherwise there is
a risk of amputation and getting jammed!
Before you start working
Check carefully the entire area you are going to work in
and remove all items such as mats, sledges, boards,
cables and other foreign items. Before starting the engine,
declutch the appliance and shift into neutral.
Wear appropriate winter clothes when working with the
appliance.
Wear shoes that adhere well to the slippery surface.
Use a grounded socket with three wires for all units with
electric driving engines or electric starters.
Set the working screw height so that it does not touch the
surface with rubble or road metal.
Never try to adjust the appliance when running (except
when it has been specifically recommended by the
manufacturer).
Let the engine and appliance adapt to the outside
temperature and then start removing snow.
There is a risk of items being thrown off at eyes when
working with power appliances.
Protective glasses or a shield should always be used when
operating, adjusting or repairing the appliance.
Operation
Switch-on and starting
To prevent unintentional appliance switch-on, the 2-point
safety switch is fitted with a safety pressure switch (pic.
11-A). This switch must be pressed before the switch lever
(pic. 11-B) is pressed. If the switch lever is released, the
safety pressure switch gets back to its starting position and
the engine stops immediately. Make sure the extension
cable is not within rake's reach and is properly connected
with the switch (pic. 5, 11).
