THE FOLLOWING PRECAUTIONS:
• RELEASE AUGER DRIVE AND TRACTION
DRIVE LEVERS.
• MOVE THROI3FLE LEVER TO STOP POSI-
TION,
• REMOVE (DO NOT TURN) IGNITION KEY,
• DISCONNECT SPARK PLUG WIRE.
• DO NOT PLACE YOUR HANDS IN THE
AUGER OR DISCHARGE CHUTE. USE A
PRY BAR°
TO START ENGINE (Recoil Starter)
Be sure that the engine has sufficient oil. Belore starting
the engine, be certain that you have read the following
information:
COLD START (See Fig. 14)
•
Be sure the auger drive and the traction drive levers
are in the disengaged RELEASED position
Move the throttle controlto RUN position

O
Pull the starter handle rapidly Do not allow the handle
to snap back, but allow it to rewind slowly while
keeping a firm hold on the starter handle.
•
As the engine warms up and begins to operate eve nly,
rotate the choke knob slowly to OFF position If the
engine falters, return to FULL choke, then slowly
move to OFF choke position
NOTE: Allow the engine to warm up for a few minutes
because the engine will not develop full power until it
reaches operating temperature
•
Run the engine at or neat thetop speed whenthrowing
snow
WARM
START
If restarting a warm engine alter a short shutdown, rotate
choke to OFF instead of FULL and do not push the
primer button.
FROZEN
STARTER
If the starter is frozen and will not turn engine:
@ Pull as much rope out of the starter as possible.
@ Release the starter handle and let it snap back
against the starter.
If the engine still fails to start, push the primer button two
or three times again and repeat the two previous sleps
until the engine starts Then continue with the directions
for cold start
To help prevent possible freeze-up of recoil starter and
engine controls, proceed as follows after each snow
removal job
•
With the engine running, pull the starter rope hard
with a continuous full arm stroke three or four times
Pulling of starter rope will produce a loud clattering
sound. This is not harmful to the engine or starter.
•
With the engine not running, wipe all snow and
moisture from the carburetor cover in area of control
levers Also move throttle control choke control, and
starter handle several times.
SNOW THROWING TIPS
®
For maximum snow thrower efficiency in removing
snow, adjust ground speed, NEVER the throttle= Go
slower in deep, freezing, or wet snow. If the track
slips, reduce forward speed The engine is designed
to deliver maximum pedormance at full throttle and
should be run at this power setting at aUtimes.
•
Most elficient snow throwing is accomplished when
the snow is removed irnmediately after it falls..
•
For complete snow removal, slightly overlap each
path previously taken
•
The snow should bedischarged down wind whenever
possible.
•
For normal usage, set the skids so that the scraper
baris 1/8" above the skids. Forexlremely hardpacked
snow surfaces, adjust the skids upward so that the
scraper bar louches the ground
•
On gravel or'crushed rock surfaces, set the skids at
1-1/4" below the scraper bar (see To Adjust Skid
Height paragraph on page 18) Stones and gravel
musl not be picked up and thrown by the machine.
•
After the snow throw!ng job has been completed,
allow the engine to idle for a few minutes, which will
melt snow and accumulated ice off the engine.
®
Clean the snow thrower thoroughly after' each use.
•
Remove ice and snow accumulation and all debris
from the entire snow thrower, and flush with water (if
possible) to remove all salt or other chemicals Wipe
snow thrower dry
