yourself with the location of various controls and
adjustments.
How To Control
The Discharge Of The Snow
WARNING: Never direct the dis-
charge of snow toward bystanders.
WARNING: Always stop the engine
before unclogging the discharge
chute or the auger housing and be-
fore leaving the snow thrower.
1. (Figure 1) Turn the crank assembly (2) to
change the discharge direction of the snow.
2. Push the remote chute lever (20) forward to
discharge the snow high and far. Pull the re-
mote chute lever (20) back to discharge the
snow down.
How To Stop
The Snow Thrower (Figure 1)

drive lever (5).
2. To stop the wheels, release the traction
drive lever (1).
3. To stop the engine, push the stop switch
(13) to the OFF position..
CAUTION: To stop the engine, do not move
the choke control to CHOKE position. Back-
fire or engine damage can occur.
How To Go Forward or Backward
(Figure 1)
1. To change the ground speed, first release the
traction drive lever (1) and then move the
speed shift lever (6) to the desired speed.
2. Ground speed is determined by snow condi-
tions. Select the speed by moving the speed
shift lever (6) into the appropriate notch on
the shift lever plate.
Speed 1, 2
Wet, Heavy
Speed 3
Light
Speed 4
Very Light
Speed 5, 6

3. To go forward, engage the traction drive
lever (1). Maintain a firm hold on the handle
as the snow thrower starts to move forward.
Guide the snow thrower by moving the han-
dle either left or right. Do not attempt to push
the snow thrower.
4. To go backward, release the tractor drive
lever (1).
5. Move the speed shift lever (6) into either
first or second reverse.
6. Engage the traction drive lever (1).

WARNING: The operation of any
snow thrower can result in foreign
objects being thrown into the eyes,
which can result in severe eye damage.
Always wear safety glasses or eye shields
while operating the snow thrower. We rec-
ommend standard safety glasses or use a
wide vision safety mask over your glasses.
How To Use The Wheel Lockout Pin
(Figure 13)
1. The right hand wheel is secured to the axle
with a klick pin (1). This unit was shipped
with this klick pin (1) through the wheel hole
in the locked position (2).
2. For ease of maneuverability in light snow
conditions, change the klick pin (1) to an
unlocked position (3).
3. Disconnect the klick pin (1) from the wheel
locked position (2). Push the klick pin (1)
through the unlocked axle hole only. The unit
is now in the single wheel drive unlocked
position (3).
Before Starting The Engine
1. Before you service or start the engine, famil-
iarize yourself with the snow thrower. Be
sure you understand the function and loca-
tion of all controls.
2. Check the tension of the clutch cable before
starting the engine. See "How To Adjust The
Clutch Cable" in the Maintenance section of
this manual.
3. Make sure that all fasteners are tight.
4. Make sure the height adjust skids are proper-
ly adjusted. See "How To Adjust The Height
Of The Skids" in the Maintenance section of
this manual.
5. Check the air pressure in the tires. The cor-
rect air pressure is 14 PSI (1 BAR) to 17 PSI
(1.25 BAR). Do not exceed the maximum
amount of air pressure shown on the side of
the tire.

How To Start The Engine (Figure 1)
Models equipped with an Electric Starter
NOTE: An electric starter kit can be added to
recoil start engines. Electric starter kits are
available from your nearest authorized ser-
vice center.

WARNING: The starter is equipped
with a three- -wire power cord and
plug and is designed to operate on
220 volt A.C. household current. The power
cord must be properly grounded at all times
to avoid the possibility of electrical shock
which can injure the operator. Carefully fol-
low all instructions in the "How To Start The
Engine" section. Make sure that your house
wiring is a three- -wire grounded system. If
you are not sure, ask a licensed electrician.
If your house wire system is not a
three- -wire grounded system, do not use
this electric starter under any conditions. If
your system is grounded but a three- -hole
grounded receptacle is not available to start
the engine, have a three- -hole grounded re-
ceptacle installed by a licensed electrician.
To connect a 220 volt A.C. power cord, al-
ways connect the power cord to the switch
box (11) on the engine first. Then, plug the
other end into the three- -hole grounded re-
ceptacle. When disconnecting the power
cord, always unplug the end from the
three- -hole grounded receptacle first.
