Operating 
Your Snow 
Thrower
WARNING
The operation of 
any snow thrower 
can result in foreign 
objects being thrown 
into the eyes, which 
can damage your 
eyes severely. Always 
wear safety glasses 
while operating the 
snow thrower, or while 
performing any adjust-
ments or repairs on it.
Be sure no one other 
than the operator is 
standing near the snow 
thrower while starting 
engine or operating 
snow thrower. Never 
run engine indoors or 
in enclosed, poorly 
ventilated areas. En-
gine exhaust contains 
carbon monoxide, an 
odorless and deadly 
gas. Keep hands, feet, 
hair and loose clothing 
away from any moving 
parts on engine and 
snow thrower. 
Auger Control
The auger control is located on the left handle. Squeeze 
the control grip against the handle to engage the augers 
and start snow throwing action. Release to stop.
Drive Control/ Auger Control Lock
The drive control is located on the right handle. Squeeze 
the control grip against the handle to engage the wheel 
drive. Release to stop. 
The drive control also locks the auger control so you can 
operate the chute directional control without interrupting 
the snow throwing process. If the auger control is en-
gaged simultaneously with the drive control, the operator 
can release the auger control (on the left handle) and 
the augers will remain engaged. Release both controls to 
stop the augers and wheel drive. 
IMPORTANT: Always release the drive control before 
changing speeds.
Four-Way Chute Control™
The chute directional control is located on the left side of 
the dash panel.
•  To change the direction in which snow is thrown, 
squeeze the button on the joy-stick and pivot the 
joy-stick to the right or to the left.
•  To change the angle/distance which snow is thrown, 
pivot the joy-stick forward or backward.
Ignition Key
The ignition key must be inserted and snapped in place 
in order for the engine to start. Remove the ignition key to 
prevent unauthorized use of equipment. Do NOT attempt 
to turn the key.
Clean-Out Tool
WARNING: Never use your hands to 
clear a clogged chute assembly. Shut 
off engine and remain behind handles 
until all moving parts have stopped 
before unclogging.
1.  Release both the auger control and the drive/auger 
control lock.
2.  Stop the engine by moving the throttle to the stop 
position. 
3.  Remove the clean-out tool from the mounting clip. 
4.  Use the shovel-shaped end of the clean-out tool to 
remove any snow and ice in the chute assembly.
5.  Re-fasten the clean-out tool to the mounting clip on 
the rear of the auger housing and restart engine.
6.  While standing in the operator’s position (behind the 
snow thrower), engage the auger control for a few 
seconds to clear any remaining snow or ice from the 
chute assembly before continuing to clear snow.
Heated Handles Switch 
(If Equipped)
This switch is located on the right side of the snow 
thrower dash panel. To activate the heated handles, 
toggle the switch to the right to generate heat within the 
handle grips. Toggle the switch to the left to the OFF 
position after using the snow thrower.
NOTE: The heated handles grips are a compliment to, 
not a substitute for, proper cold weather outerwear for 
the operator’s hands. It is recommended that the snow 
thrower operator wear gloves/mittens to avoid extremities 
of winter while operating this equipment.
