1. Press down on the handlebar to raise the front of the snowthrower 

slightly. Roll the snowthrower over to the snow area.

2. Use the chute guide handle (page10) to 

adjust the direction for the discharged 
snow to travel.

3. Engage the auger clutch lever. The 

auger will begin to spin.

4. Tilt the snowthrower forward 

slightly with handlebar to 
engage the auger into the 
snow. The auger will then pull 
the snowthrower forward and 
discharge the snow.

5. To stop, lower the handlebar 

slightly, then release the 
auger clutch lever.

For best efficiency, clear snow before it melts, refreezes and hardens. 
Do not reduce engine speed while clearing snow.

Operating tips for clearing hard or deep snow:

•

Clear snow with a back and forth motion. Release the auger clutch 
lever, then press down on the handlebar to raise the auger housing 
when pulling the snowblower backwards.

•

Clear a narrower swath. Make several passes with the auger 
overlapping the cleared areas.
