• Let engine and machine adjust to outdoor temperatures before starting to clear snow. Danger • The operation of any powered machine can result in foreign objects being thrown into the eyes. Always wear safety glasses or eye shields during operation or while performing an adjustment or repair. When the snowthrower is in operation, the impeller and auger can be rotating and cut off or injure hands and feet.
Maintenance and Storage • Before leaving the operator’s position, stop the engine, remove the key, and wait for all moving parts to stop. • Check fasteners at frequent intervals for proper tightness to be sure the equipment is in safe working condition. • Do not wear loose fitting clothing that could possibly get caught in moving parts. • Always refer to the operator’s manual for important details if the snowthrower is to be stored for an extended period.

• The snowthrower is designed to clean snow down to the contact surface, but there are times when the front of the snowthrower may tend to ride up. If this happens, reduce forward speed. 2 • Discharge snow downwind whenever possible, and overlap each pass to ensure complete snow removal. If wheels slip, reduce forward speed. 1 • Run the snowthrower for a few minutes after clearing snow so moving parts do not freeze. • Do not overload the snowthrower by clearing snow at too fast a rate.
Adjusting the Skids 2. Check the level of oil in the gear box. The oil must be at the point of overflowing in the filler opening. The distance between the scraper blade and the ground is controlled by skids on each side of the housing. The height can be adjusted so the scraper blade will not catch on uneven surfaces 3. If the oil level is low, add SAE 90 EP GL-4 transmission oil to the gear box. 4. Install the pipe plug in the gear box. 1.
Storage 1. Raise the snowthrower a foot off of the ground and stop the engine. 1. Before long term storage, wash the snowthrower with mild detergent and water to remove dirt and grime. 2. Remove the nuts, washers, carriage bolts, and scraper blade (Fig. 11). 2. Check the condition of the scraper blade; refer to Replacing Scraper Blade, page 10. 3. Replace the scraper blade and secure the new blade with the previously removed hardware (Fig. 11). 3.
