Electric Starter
Determine that your home's wiring is a three-wire grounded system.
Ask a licensed electrician if you are not certain.
If you have a grounded three-prong receptacle, proceed as follows:
1.
Plug the extension cord into the outlet located on the engine's
surface. Plug the other end of extension cord into a three-prong
120-volt, grounded, AC outlet in a well-ventilated area See Figure 11.
2.
Push the choke lever to the CHOKE
3.
If the engine is warm, place the choke in the RUN
instead of CHOKE
.
4.
Push the primer three (3) times, making sure to cover the vent
hole when pushing.
5.
If the engine is warm, push the primer button only once.
6.
Push starter button to start engine.
7.
Once the engine starts, release starter button.
8.
Allow the engine to warm up several minutes, adjusting choke
toward RUN
position. Wait until engine runs smoothly before
each choke adjustment.
9.
When disconnecting the extension cord, always unplug the end
at the three-prong wall outlet before unplugging the opposite end
from the snow thrower.

STOPPINg THE ENgINE

1.
Run the engine for a few minutes before stopping to help dry off
any moisture on the engine.
2.
To stop the engine remove the key and store it in a safe place.
3.
Wipe all the snow and moisture away from the engine controls
area.
Muffler, engine and surrounding areas become hot and can cause a
burn. Be careful and do not touch when they are hot.
ENgAgINg THE AUgER
Engage the auger by squeezing the auger control against the upper
handle. Release the control to stop the auger.
ENgAgINg THE DRIVE
Lift up slightly on the handle to allow the rubber paddles on the auger
to contact the pavement and propel the snow thrower forward. Pushing
downward on the handle will raise the auger off the ground and stop
the forward motion.
NOTE: Excessive upward pressure on the handle will result in
premature wear to the rubber auger paddles, which will not be covered
by the warranty.
CLEARINg A CLOggED DISCHARgE CHUTE
Hand contact with the rotating impeller inside the discharge chute
is the most common cause of injury associated with snow throwers.
Never use your hand to clean out the discharge chute.
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 or stick, not your hands.
