OPERATIOSNOW THROWING TiPS

o For maximum snow thrower efficiency in removingsnow, adjust ground speed, NEVER the throttle Goslower in deep, freezing or wet snow If the trackslips, reduce forward speed The engine is designedto deliver maximum performance at full throttle andshould be run at this power setting at all times

@ Most efficient snow throwing is accomplished whenthe snow is removed immediately after it falls

@ For complete snow removal, slightly overlap eachpath previously taken Use more overlap in deepsnow to prevent overloading

O The snow should be discharged down wind when-ever possible

O For normal usage, set the skids so that the scraperbar is 1/8" above the skids For extremely hard-packed snow surfaces, adjust the skids upward sothat the scraper bar touches the ground

o On gravel or crushed rock surfaces, set the skids at1-1/4" below the scraper bar (see To Adjust SkidHeight paragraph on page 20) Stones and gravelmust not be picked up and thrown by the machine

O If the front of the snow thrower has a tendency toraise, reduce the ground speed and engage theweight transfer system

@ After the snow throwing job has been completed,allow the engine to idle for a few minutes, which willmelt snow and accumulated ice off the engine

O Clean the snow thrower thoroughly after each use

O Remove ice and snow accumulation and all debrisfrom the entire snow thrower, and flush with water (ifpossible) to remove all salt or other chemicals Wipesnow thrower dry
