Check the condition of the snow thrower before operating
it to ensure that the auger turns freely.
Check the auger for wear and tear at regular intervals.
Make sure all fasteners on the snow thrower (screws,
nuts, etc.) are fully tightened.
Position the discharge chute so that snow will discharge
in a safe direction. Do not direct the discharge towards
people or areas where property can be damaged. Keep
children, pets and others away for the work area. Do not
walk in front of the snow thrower when it is running.
Direct the discharge to the right or left by turning the
discharge chute with the chute crank. The chute can be
adjusted up to 180 degrees.
The chute deflector on the top of the discharge chute
controls the height of the discharge. Loosen both of the
knobs to raise or lower the deflector to the desired height
and tighten the knobs to secure the deflector.
NOTE: Do not over-tighten the knobs.
For the most efficient snow removal throw the snow
downwind and slightly overlap each swath.
Push the snow thrower forward at a comfortable rate of
speed, yet slow enough to clear the path completely. The
width and depth of the snow determines your forward
speed.
When turning at the end of a swath, use the wheel on
one side as the pivot point. Slightly tilt the snow thrower
on this pivot point while turning.
The snow thrower can remove up to 12 inches deep in
one pass. To shave down larger banks of snow, lift the
snow thrower by the primary and auxiliary handles and
place the snow thrower on the bank. Let the weight of
the snow thrower shave down the bank by rocking it in a
back-and-forth motion.
When clearing steps, hold the snow thrower by the
primary and auxiliary handles and use a swinging or
sweeping motion.
Clear snow often, before it gets too deep. It is best to
remove the snow as soon as possible after it falls.
Some parts of the snow thrower may freeze under
extreme temperature conditions. If parts freeze while the
snow thrower is in use, stop the snow thrower, remove
the battery and inspect for frozen parts. Free all parts of
ice before restarting or operating the snow thrower. Do
not attempt to operate the snow thrower with frozen parts
or try to force controls that are frozen.
OPERATING

ON/ OFF BUTTON
OPERATING
After clearing the snow, continue to run the snow thrower
for a few minutes to prevent ice from freezing on moving
parts. Then switch off the motor, wait for all moving parts
to stop, and wipe the ice and snow from the snow
thrower with a clean rag.
WARNING: To avoid serious personal injury, do not use
hands or feet to unclog the chute.
Before unclogging the chute, shut off the snow thrower
and remove the battery pack. Wait for the auger to stop
turning. Clean out the chute with a wooden stick such as
a broom handle.
If the snow thrower should start to vibrate abnormally,
immediately stop the motor and check for the cause.
Vibration is generally a warning of trouble.
Look behind and use care when backing up with the
snow thrower.
For large areas a definite pattern of operation is required
to thoroughly clean an area of snow. These patterns
will avoid throwing snow in unwanted places as well as
eliminating a second removal of snow.
Pattern A: Throw the snow to the right or left side where
it is possible. For areas such as a long driveway it is
advantageous to start in the middle. Plow from one end
to the other, throwing snow to both sides.
Pattern B: If the snow can only be thrown to one side of
the area to be cleared, start on the opposite side.
Overload Protection
The over current controller will automatically turn off the
snow thrower within 2 seconds when the current is over
25A. If the motor stops, you can restart the snow thrower
immediately if needed.
