For removal of snow in normal con di tions, such as a paved driveway or side walk, place skid plates in the highest position (lowest scraper clear ance) to give a 1/8" clearance between the scraper bar and the ground. Use a middle position if the surface to be cleared is uneven. NOTE: It is not recommended to operate the snow thrower over gravel or rocky surfaces. Objects such as gravel, rocks or other debris, can easily be picked up and thrown by the impeller, which can cause serious personal injury, property dam age or damage to the snow thrower. • If snow thrower must be operated over gravel surface, use extra caution and be sure skid plates are adjusted to lowest (highest scraper clear ance) position. 1. Shut off engine and wait for all moving parts to stop. 2. Adjust skid plates by loosening the hex nuts, then moving skid plate to desired position. Be sure both plates are adjusted evenly. Tighten securely. SKID PLATE LOW POSITION (HIGH GROUND CLEAR ANCE) HEX NUTS HIGH POSITION (LOW GROUND CLEARANCE) AUGER HOUSING SCRAPER BAR Fig. 17 SCRAPER BAR (See Fig. 17) The scraper bar is not adjustable, but is reversible. After con sid er able use it may become worn. When it has worn almost to the edge of the housing, it can be reversed, providing additional service before requiring replacement. Replace a dam aged or worn scrap er bar. BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE CHECK ENGINE OIL LEVEL (See Fig. 18) The engine on your snow thrower has been shipped from the factory already filled with oil. 1. Check engine oil with snow thrower on level ground. 2. Remove oil fill cap/dipstick and wipe clean, reinsert the dipstick and screw tight, wait for a few seconds, remove and read oil level. If necessary, add oil until “FULL” mark on dipstick is reached. Do not overfill. • To change engine oil, see “TO CHANGE ENGINE OIL” in the Main te nance sec tion of this manual. ADD GASOLINE (See Fig. 18) • Fill fuel tank to bottom of tank filler neck. Do not overfill. Use fresh, clean, regular unleaded gasoline with a minimum of 87 octane. Do not mix oil with gasoline. Purchase fuel in quan ti ties that can be used within 30 days to assure fuel freshness. WARNING: Wipe off any spilled oil or fuel. Do not store, spill or use gasoline near an open flame. FIG. 18 CAUTION: Alcohol blended fuels (called gas ohol or using ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture which leads to separation and for mation of acids dur ing storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of an engine while in storage. To avoid engine problems, the fuel system should be emptied be fore stor age of 30 days or longer. Empty the gas tank, start the engine and let it run until the fuel lines and carburetor are empty. Use fresh fuel next season. See Storage In struc tions for ad di tion al information. Never use engine or car bu re tor cleaner products in the fuel tank or per ma nent damage may occur.

PRIM ER SAFETY IG NI TION KEY ON / OFF SWITCH STARTER BUTTON RECOIL STARTER HANDLE 12 OPERATION TO START ENGINE • Be sure fuel shut-off valve is in the “OPEN” position. Your snow thrower engine is equipped with both a 120 Volt A.C. electric starter and a recoil starter. The electric starter is equipped with a three-wire power cord and plug and is designed to operate on 120 Volt A.C. household current. • Be sure your house is a 120 Volt A.C. three-wire ground ed system. If you are uncertain, consult a li censed electrician. WARNING: Do not use the electric start er if your house is not a 120 Volt A.C. three-wire grounded system. Se rious per son al injury or damage to your snow thrower could result. COLD START - ELECTRIC STARTER 1. Insert safety ignition key (tied to recoil start cord) into ignition slot until it clicks. DO NOT turn the key. Keep the extra safety ignition key in a safe place. 2. Place ON / OFF switch in “ON” position. 3. Move choke control to “FULL” position. 4. Connect the power cord to the engine. 5. Plug the other end of the power cord into a three-hole grounded 120 Volt A.C. receptacle. NOTE: Do not use primer when start ing en gine with the electric starter. 6. Push starter button until engine starts. IMPORTANT: Do not crank engine more than five con tin uous seconds between each time you try to start. Wait 5 to 10 seconds between each attempt. 7. When the engine starts, release the starter button and slowly move the choke control to the “OFF” position. 8. Disconnect the power cord from the receptacle first, then from the engine. Allow the engine to warm up for a few minutes. Engine will not develop full power until it has reached normal operating temperature. WARM START - ELECTRIC STARTER Follow the steps above, keeping the choke control in the “OFF” position. COLD START - RECOIL STARTER 1. Insert safety ignition key (tied to recoil start cord) into ignition slot until it clicks. DO NOT...
