Check clutch and brake operation frequently. Adjust and service
as
required. All motion
of
drive wheels and auger/impeller must
stop quickly when control levers are released.
Let engine and machine adjust
to
outdoor
temperature
before
starting
to
clear snow.
Stay alert
for
hidden hazards
or
traffic.
Do
not
overload machine capacity by attempting
to
clear snow
at
too
fast
of
a rate.
Do
not
throw
snow any higher than necessary.
Adjust
auger housing
height
to
clear
gravel
or
crushed
rock
surfaces. Exercise extreme caution when operating.
Exercise
caution
to
avoid
slipping
or
falling, especially
when
operating in reverse. Never operate machine
at
high
transport
speeds on slippery surfaces. Always look down and behind before
and while backing.
Do
not
operate on steep slopes. Do
not
clear snow across
the
face
of
slopes. Keep all movement on slopes slow and gradual. Do
not
make sudden changes in speed
or
direction. Use a slow speed
to
avoid stops
or
shifts
on slopes. Avoid

to
a complete stop before unclogging
the
chute
assembly, making any adjustments,
or
inspections.
Hand
contact
with
the
rotating
impeller
inside
the
discharge
chute
is
the most common cause
of

running.
Shut
off
engine and remain behind handles until all moving parts
have stopped
