STORING AND MAINTENANCE

WARNING: Before performing any maintenance or cleaning work, switch off the engine and
wait until the paddle has come to a stop.
Cleaning
General cleaning
The snowblower should be cleaned thoroughly every time after it has been used. Always clean your
snowblower immediately after use.
Do not allow snow and other debris to become dry and hard on any of the snowblower surfaces.
Dried snow remnants and dirt may impair the snow clearing operation.
Check that the snow chute is free of any residual snow. Remove any such residue. Check the
underside of the snowblower and the blade mount. When checking, tilt the snowblower onto its left
side (opposite the oil filler neck).
NOTE: Before placing the snowblower on its side, fully drain the fuel tank using a gas
'suction pump' was used on page 27.
Do not tilt the snowblower by more than 90 degrees.
Maintenance of the spark plug

1. Once the engine has cooled, pull off the
spark cover with a twist.
2. Remove the spark plug using a spark plug
wrench (not supplied).
3. Clean the spark plug with a wire brush (not
supplied).
4. Using a feeler gauge, set the gap to
0.7~0.8mm.
