SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Careful operation is your best insurance against an accident. Read this section carefully before operating the vehicle
and accessory. This accessory is capable of amputating hands and feet and throwing objects. Failure to observe the
following safety instructions could result in serious injury. All operators, no matter how experienced they may be,
should read this and other manuals related to the vehicle and accessory before operating. It is the owner's legal
obligation to instruct all operators in safe operation of the accessory.
GLOSSARY:
In this manual, right and left sides are determined by
sitting on the seat of the vehicle facing forward.
In this manual, "accessories" means attachments
(snowblower, rotary broom, blade etc.) that you install
on the vehicle (lawn tractors, A.T.V. s etc).
TRAINING:
This symbol, "Safety Alert Symbol", is used
throughout this manual and on the
accessory’s safety labels to warn of the
possibility of serious injury. Please take
special care in reading and understanding
the safety precautions before operating the
vehicle and accessory.
1. Read this owner's manual carefully. Be thoroughly
familiar with the controls and proper use of the
vehicle and accessory. Know how to stop the unit
and disengage the controls quickly.
2. Never allow children to operate the vehicle nor the
accessory. Never allow adults to operate the vehicle
nor the accessory without proper instructions.
3. No one should operate the vehicle nor the
accessory while intoxicated or while taking
medication that impairs the senses or reactions.
4. Keep the area of operation clear of all people,
particularly small children and pets.
PREPARATION:
1. Thoroughly inspect the area where the accessory
is to be used and remove door mats, all foreign
objects and the like.
2. For motorized accessories, disengage all clutches
and shift into neutral before starting engine.
3. Do not operate the accessory without wearing
adequate winter outer garments. Avoid loose fitting
clothing that can get caught in moving parts. Wear
footwear that will improve footing on slippery
surfaces.
4. Handle fuel with care, it is highly flammable.
a) Use approved fuel container.
b) Never add fuel to a running engine or hot engine.
c) Fill fuel tank outdoors with extreme care. Never fill
fuel tank indoors.
d) Never fill containers inside a vehicle, or on a
truck or a trailer bed with a plastic liner. Always
place containers on the ground, away from your
vehicle, before filling.
e) When practical, remove gas-powered
equipment from the truck or trailer and refuel it
on the ground. If this is not possible, then refuel
such equipment on a trailer with a portable
container, rather than from a gasoline
dispenser nozzle.
f) Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the
fuel tank or container opening at all times, until
refueling is complete. Do not use a nozzle lock-
open device.
g) Replace fuel cap securely and wipe up spilled
fuel.
h) If fuel is spilled on clothing, change clothing
immediately.
5. Never attempt to make any adjustments while the
engine (motor) is running (except when specifically
recommended by manufacturer).
6. Let the vehicle and accessory adjust to outdoor
temperatures before using.
7. Never use an accessory without proper guards,
plates, or other safety protective devices in place
8. Always make sure to wear the appropriate safety
equipment required (glasses, muffs, mask…) for
each type of product. See operation section.
9. Always make sure of having safe traction on the
vehicle by using the recommended accessories
(chains, A.T.V. tracks, counterweights…). See
operation section.
10. Never modify the accessory or any part without
the written consent from the manufacturer.
4
OPERATION:
1. Do not put hands or feet near, under or inside rotating
parts.
2. Exercise extreme caution when operating on or
crossing gravel drives, walks or roads. Stay alert for
hidden hazards or traffic. Do not carry passengers.
3. After striking a foreign object, stop the engine (motor),
disconnect the wire from the spark plug(s) and keep
wire away to prevent accidental starting. Thoroughly
inspect the accessory for any damage and repair
damage before restarting and using the accessory.
4. If the unit should start to vibrate abnormally, stop the
engine (motor) and check immediately for the
cause. Vibration is generally a warning of trouble.
5. Take all possible precautions when leaving the
vehicle unattended. Disengage the power take-off,
lower the attachment, place the transmission into
neutral, set the parking brake, stop the engine and
remove the contact key.
6. Do not run the engine indoors, except when starting
the engine and for transporting in or out of the
building. Do not operate or let motor run in a storage
area without ventilation because gas contains
carbon monoxide which is odorless, colorless and
can cause death.
7. Never use the accessories across the face of
slopes, go from top to bottom. Exercise extreme
caution when using equipment on slopes. Do not
attempt to clear a steep slope.
8. Never tolerate bystanders in the working zone.

flames.
MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
1. When cleaning, repairing or inspecting the vehicle
and accessory, make certain that all moving parts
have stopped. Disconnect wire from the spark
plug(s) and keep wire away to prevent accidental
starting.
2. Check all the bolts and components at frequent
intervals to make sure that they are properly
tightened.
3. Never store a motorized accessory with fuel in the
fuel tank inside a building where ignition sources are
present such as hot water and space heaters,
clothes dryers, and the like. Allow the engine to cool
before storing in any enclosure.
4. Always refer to the owner’s manual when you store
the accessory and vehicle for a prolonged or an
unspecified length of time.
5. Maintain or replace safety and instruction labels, as
necessary.
6 For winter accessories, (if applicable), let the engine
run for a few minutes after clean snow in order to
prevent the rotary parts from freezing.
7. Inspect the vehicle’s and accessory’s air filter every
day. Clean it or replace it as necessary. Change the
oil more often when working in dusty conditions.
