Read, understand, and follow all 

instructions and warnings on the machine and in 

this manual before operating. 

 

The motor control lever is a safety 

device. Never attempt to bypass its operations. 

 

The motor control lever is located on the upper handle. The motor 

control lever engages and disengages the motor and auger.

The key is a safety device. It must be fully inserted in order for the 

motor to start. Remove the key when the snow thrower is not in use.

Rotate the discharge chute left or right using the chute handle.

The strain reliever is located on the middle handle of the snow 

thrower. The strain reliever reduces strain on the extension cord 

so that it does not come unplugged during operation.

When engaged, the auger rotation draws snow into the auger 

housing and throws it out the discharge chute. Rubber paddles 

on the auger also aid in propelling the snow thrower as they 

come in contact with the pavement.

The starter button is located on the upper handle of the snow 

thrower. Engaging the motor control lever with the starter 

button pressed will start the snow thrower.

The pitch of the discharge chute controls the angle at which the 

snow is thrown. Loosen the wing knob on the side of the discharge 

chute before pivoting the discharge chute upward or downward. 

Retighten the knob once the desired position has been achieved.

The snow thrower is equipped with an circuit breaker reset 

button, located on the motor control. This button may pop 

out when too much strain is placed on the motor. Refer to the 

Maintenance & Adjustments Section to reset this button.
