Once the engine is warm and running smoothly, the choke knob should be set to the off position to provide a normal air/fuel mix. STARTING THE ENGINE 1. Turn the fuel valve (located below the fuel tank) to the ON position. 2. Insert the engine key (F, Figure 1) into the engine key slot and push fully in to the RUN position. 3. Move the throttle lever (E) fully up to the FAST position. Figures 1. Engine Controls A. Electric Start Button B. Fuel Valve C. Starter Handle D. Primer Button E. Throttle Lever F. Engine Key G. Choke Knob 4. Turn the choke knob (G) fully clockwise if engine is cold. (Do not choke a warm engine.) 5. Push the primer button (D) two times if engine is cold. (Do not prime a warm engine.) 6. Engine Mounted Electric Start: Press the starter button to crank the engine. Manual Start: Pull starter handle (C) rapidly to start the engine. Do not allow the starter handle to snap back—let the starter rope rewind slowly—while keeping a firm grip on the starter handle. 7. As the engine starts and begins to operate evenly, turn the choke knob (G) slowly counter-clockwise to the OFF position, and set the Throttle Lever to SLOW. If the engine falters, turn the choke knob clockwise until the engine runs smoothly, and let it run briefly before returning the choke to the OFF position. NOTE: Allow the engine to warm up at SLOW throttle for a few minutes before operating the snowthrower at full speed. The engine will not develop full power until it reaches operating temperature. After warming up, always operate at full throttle. 11 Operation OPERATING THE SNOWTHROWER 1. Rotate the discharge chute to the desired direction. 2. Set the speed selector to the desired forward speed. 3. Fully press and hold the auger engage control (C, Figure 2) on the right-hand grip to begin auger rotation. Releasing the auger engage control will disengage the auger —unless the Free-Hand™ Control has been activated (See step 5 below). 4. Fully press and hold the traction & Free-Hand™ Control lever (B, Figure 2) on the left-hand grip to engage the traction drive and begin moving the snowthrower. To disengage the traction drive, completely release the lever. 5. When BOTH levers are depressed, the Free-Hand™ Control is activated. This allows Auger Engage Control to be released — YET AUGER ROTATION WILL CONTINUE — until the Free-Hand™ Control is released. 6. Select forward or reverse speeds as needed using the Speed Selector (A, Figure 2). Release both control levers before changing drive speeds. CLEARING A CLOGGED DISCHARGE CHUTE Hand contact with the rotating auger/impeller inside the discharge chute is the most common cause of injury associated with snowthrowers. DO NOT use your hand to clean out the discharge chute. To clear the chute: 1. Stop the engine. Remove the key 2. Wait 10 seconds to be sure the auger/impeller blades have stopped rotating. 3. Always use the clean-out tool. DO NOT use your hands. GROUND SPEED SELECTOR Use the speed selector (A, Figure 2) to control the drive speed of the snowthrower. There are five forward speeds and two reverse speeds. Use the lower speeds to blow deep or wet snow. Use the higher speeds to blow light snow or to drive the snowthrower without blowing snow. To change speeds, release both control levers (B, Figure 2), then move the speed selector to the desired setting. Fully depress the control levers to resume. ENGINE SPEED Always run the snowthrower at full throttle. rA WARNING- When BOTH levers are depressed, the FreeHand™ Control is activated. This allows Auger Engage Control to be released — YET AUGER ROTATION WILL CONTINUE — until the FreeHand™ Control is released. Figure 2. Controls (from operator’s position) A. Speed Selector B.

Remote Deflector Control 12 Operation DEFLECTOR The distance of the discharged snow is mainly controlled by the position of the deflector. (Engine speed also affects distance of discharge.) The more the deflector is tilted UP, the farther snow will be thrown. Models with Chute Deflector Knob See Figure 3. 1. Loosen the deflector knob, tilt the deflector UP or DOWN. 2. Retighten the knob when desired angle has been chosen. Models with Remote Deflector Control See Figure 4. 1. Turn the remote deflector control (C) counterclockwise to UNLOCK, and the spring (B) will pull the deflector to the maximum throwing position (A). Push the knob UP to decrease the throwing distance. 2. Turn the remote deflector control knob clockwise to LOCK in place when the desired angle has been chosen. SCRAPER BAR & SKID SHOES On smooth surfaces such as concrete or asphalt, the scraper bar (A, Figure 5) should scrape the surface. On surfaces such as gravel, the scraper bar should be high enough so that it will not pick up gravel or debris. The height of the scraper bar (A) is controlled by raising or low...
