3 ELECTRICAL SAFETY
• Design of the connection cable according to IEC 60245 (H 07RN‐F) with a core
cross‐profile section of at least:
- 1.5 mm2for cable lengths up to 25m
- 2.5 mm2for cable lengths over 25m
• Long and thin connection lines result in a potential drop. The motor does not reach any
longer its maximal power; the function of the device is reduced.
• Plugs and coupler outlets on connection cables must be made of rubber, nonrigid PVC
or other thermoplastic material of same mechanical stability or be covered with this
material.
• The connector of the connection cable must be splash proof.
• When running the connection line observe that it does not interfere, is not squeezed,
bended and the plug connection does not get wet.
• Wind off completely the cable when using a cable drum.
• Do not drive the device across the extension cable. Make sure that it is behind you in a
secure position. Place the cable on a path or area that has already been thatched.
• Do not use the cable for purposes for which it is not meant. Protect the cable against
heat, oil and sharp edges. Do not use the cable to pull the plug from the socket.
• Protect yourself against electric shocks.Avoid touching earthed parts with your body (e.g.
pipes, heating apparatus, cookers, fridges etc.).
• Do never connect a damaged cable to the mains. Do not touch a damaged cable before
it is disconnected from the mains. A damaged cable may cause contact with live parts.
• Do not use any defective connection cables.
• When working outdoors, only use extension cables especially approved and
appropriately labeled for out-door use.
• Do not set up any provisional electrical connections.

• Never bypass protective devices or deactivate them.
• Only hook up the machine by means of a fault‐current circuit breaker (30 mA).
• The electrical connection or repairs to electrical parts of the machine must be carried out
by a certified electrician or one of our customer service points. Local regulations ‐
especially regarding protective measures must be observed.
• Damaged mains must be replaced by the manufacturer or one of their service
workshops or a similar qualified person to prevent dangers.
• Repairs to other parts of the machine must be carried out by the manufacturer or one of
his customer service points. Use only original spare parts, accessories and special
accessory parts. Accidents can arise for the user through the use of other spare parts. The

6 STARTING
Intend use
This appliance is only intended for sweeping of snow on steps, patios and decks in private
domestic and hobby gardens.
It is not designed for use in public areas, parks, sports areas, and in agriculture and
forestry. Using the application only on hard, flat surfaces free of sad, stone and debris,
wires and any other objects.
For any other purpose is considered incorrect and unapproved. The manufacturer is not
liable for any damage or injury resulting from such use. The user is entirely responsible for
any associated risks.
On/Off switch (Fig. 4)
Warning! The auger starts rotation immediately after switch on! Keep hands and
feet away from auger.
To switch on, hold the appliance firmly with two hands and press the safety lock off button
while press the On/Off switch trigger. Keep the switch trigger hold while release the button.
To stop the appliance, release the switch trigger and it automatically returns to its start
position.
7 REMOVING SNOW
• Before starting work, make sure that the area to be clear is free of stones, debris, wires
and any other objects.
• Make sure all fasteners (screws, nuts, etc.) are always fully tightened so that you can
work safely with the appliance.
• Check the auger for wear and tear at regular intervals.
• Position discharge chute in safe direction and angle, away from operator and
bystanders.
• Clearing snowfall often, before it gets too deep. Snow is best removed as soon as
possible after snow falls.
• Lift the auger off surface slightly before switch on.
• Switch on and tilt the appliance forward until the scraper blade contacts the ground.
Push the appliance forward at a comfortable rate of speed, yet slow enough to clear the
path completely. The width and depth of the snow determines your forward speed.
• Direct the snow to the right or to the left by holding the appliance at a slight angle. For
the most efficient snow removal, throw the snow downwind, and slightly overlap each
swath.
• The appliance can remove snow up to 15 cm deep in one pass. When clearing deeper
drifts, hold the appliance by the upper and lower handles and use a swinging or sweeping

motion. Shaving off the top layer and making multiple passes (Fig. 5). For large areas, a
definite pattern of operation is required to thoroughly clean an area of snow. These
patterns will avoid throwing snow in unwanted places as well as eliminating a second
removal of snow. (Fig. 6) Pattern A: Throw the snow to the right or left side where it is
possible, as on a long driveway it is advantage to start in the middle. Plow from one end to
the other, throwing snow to both sides. Pattern B: If the snow can only be thrown to one
side of the driveway or sidewalk (above), start on the opposite side.
• Scraping the snow all the way down to the pavement will wear out the scraper and auger.
To spare the machinery, one or two inches of snow can be left behind, to be handled with
de‐icing salt or a shovel.
• After clearing the snow, let the motor run for a few minutes so that the ice doesn’t freeze
any moving parts.
Then switch off the motor, wait for all moving parts to stop, and wipe the ice and snow off
the appliance.
Warning! To avoid serious personal injury, do not use hands or feet to unclog
chute.
8 MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
Before carrying out any maintenance operations, cut off the electric power supply by
disconnecting the plug from the extension cable.
• Regular cleaning and maintenance of your appliance will ensure efficiency and prolong
the life of your appliance.
• After each operation, take apart and clean out the ice and debris from the ventilator and
its slot, auger and housings.
• Only use a cloth soaked with hot water and a soft brush to clean the application. Never
wet or spray water on the machine! l Do not use detergents or solvents as these could
cause irreparable damage to your appliance. Chemicals can destroy the plastic parts.
• To protect the application from corrosion when storing for a longer period, treat the metal
parts with harmless oil to the environment.
• Store the appliance in a dry room out reach of kids.
• Maintain or replace safety and instructions labels as necessary.
