Operating Tips

WARNING
The auger can throw stones, toys, and other foreign
objects and cause serious personal injury to the
operator or to bystanders.
• Keep the area to be cleared free of all objects
that the rotor blades could pick up and throw.

Remove the snow as soon as possible after it falls.

If the machine does not propel itself forward on slippery
surfaces or in heavy snow, push forward on the handle,
but allow the machine to work at its own pace.

Overlap each swath to ensure complete snow removal.
•
Discharge the snow downwind whenever possible.
