three-prong receptacle at all times to 
avoid the possibility of electric shock. 
Follow all instructions carefully prior 
to operating the electric starter.
1.  The electric starter is equipped with a grounded 
three-wire power cord and plug, and is designed to 
operate on 120 volt AC household current.
2.  Determine that your house wiring is a three-wire 
grounded system. Ask a licensed electrician if you 
are not certain. 
3. 
If your home wiring system is not a three-wire 
grounded system,
 do not use this electric starter 
under any conditions. 
4.
  If your home electrical system is grounded, but 
a three-hole receptacle is not available, one should 
be installed by a licensed electrician before using the 
electric starter.
5. 
If you have a grounded three-prong receptacle, 
proceed as follows:
6.  Move Choke Control to “Full” position.
7.  Push primer slowly, three (3) times, making sure to 
cover vent hole when pushing.

always unplug 
from the three-prong receptacle first, and then 
from the snow thrower.
