Throttle Control - MTD 300 Serie Manual Del Operador

Chute Handle
The direction of snow throwing corresponds to the direction
of the chute opening. Use the chute handle to turn the chute
assembly in the direction you wish to throw the snow.
Chute Knob
The distance snow is thrown can be adjusted by either raising
or lowering the upper chute. Loosen the chute knob on the side
of the upper chute to adjust. Pivot the upper chute to desired
position, and retighten the chute knob.
Shave Plate
The shave plate maintains contact with pavement as the snow
thrower is propelled, allowing snow close to pavement's surface
to be discharged.
Skid Shoes
Position the skid shoes based on surface conditions. Adjust
upward for hard-packed snow. Adjust downward when
operating on gravel or crushed rock surfaces.
Gas Cap
Remove gas cap to add fuel. This unit runs on regular gas.
Oil Fill
Engine oil level can be checked and oil added through the oil fill.
NOTE: The engine is shipped with oil in it. Check the oil level
before the first use and add if necessary, as specified in the
separate engine manual packed with your snow thrower. Always
check the oil level prior to each use.
Choke
The choke control is found on the rear of the engine and is
activated by rotating the knob clockwise. Activating the choke
control closes the choke plate on the carburetor and aids in
starting the engine.
Primer
Pressing the primer forces fuel directly into
the engine's carburetor to aid in cold-weather
starting.

Throttle Control

The throttle control is located on the rear of the
engine. It regulates the speed of the engine and
will shut off the engine when moved into the STOP
position.
Chute Clean-Out Tool
The clean-out tool is conveniently fastened to the
rear of the auger housing with a mounting clip.
When snow and ice collect in the chute assembly
during operation, use this tool to safely clean the
chute and the chute opening.
