BEFORE OPERATION Check the General Conditionof the Snowblower: Look around and underneath the snowblower for signs of oil or gasoline leaks. Checkthe augerhouse and the discharge chute for accumulation of packed snow or ice. Clean the auger housing and discharge chute before starting the snowblower. Look for signs of damage. Check each control for proper operation. Check the auger and blower for loose or broken bolts,If broken, replace them with new ones (page49). Check the skid shoes and scraper bar for wear. Replace them if necessary (page 50). Check that all nuts, bolts, screws are tightened. Check the Engine Check the oil level (page 40). Check the fuel level (page 38). Starting with afull tank will help to eliminate or reduce operating interruptions for refueling. Check the hydrostatic fluid level in thereservoir (page 43). Useonly HONDA HYDROSTATIC FLUID. 19 BEFORE OPERATION CHECK YOUR WORK AREA For your safety and the safety of others, always inspect the area before operating the snowblower. Objects Anything which can be picked up by the augers and thrown is a potential hazard to you and others. Look for things like stones, sticks, bones, nails, and wire, and remove them from the work area. People and Pets People and animals near the work area can move into your snowblowers path or into a position where they could be struck by thrown objects. Clear the area of people, especially children and pets. Their safety is your responsibility. Work Area Check the condition of the snow. Adjust your snowblower ground speed (not engine speed) and snowblowing swath accordingly. Check the skid shoes for proper adjustment. Adjust the skid shoes to obtain the auger ground clearance for the type of surface the snowblower will be operated over (page 51). OPERATION SNOWBLOWING PRECAUTIONS Before operating the snowblower for the first time, please review both the SNOWBLOWER SAFETYchapter (page 5) and the BEFORE OPERATION chapter (page 18). Even if you have operated other snowblowers, take time to become familiar with how this snowblower works, and practice in a safe area until you build up your skills. Never tamper with, oralterany of the controls or safety devices on the snowblower. For your safety, avoid starting or operating the engine in an enclosed area such as a garage.
