poison gas. Breathing carbon monoxide can cause nau-
sea, fainting, or death.
Start and run the engine outdoors.
Do not run the engine in an enclosed area, even if
doors and windows are open.
WARNING
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the
presence of children. Children are often attracted to the
unit and the operating activity. Never assume that children
will remain where you last saw them.
Keep children out of the area during operation.
Children are often attracted to the equipment. Be
mindful of all persons present.
Be alert and turn the unit off if children enter the area.
Never allow children to operate the unit.

shrubs, trees, or other objects that may obscure vision.
Children may be present.
WARNING
Fuel and its vapors are extremely flammable and explo-
sive. Always handle fuel with extreme care.
Failure to observe these safety instructions can cause a
fire or explosion which will result in severe burns or death.
When Adding Fuel
Turn off engine and let cool at least 2 minutes before
removing the fuel cap and adding fuel.
Fill fuel tank outdoors or in a well ventilated area.
Do not overfill the fuel tank. To allow for the expansion
of gasoline, do not fill above the bottom of the fuel tank
neck.
Keep fuel away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights,
heat, and other ignition sources.
Check fuel lines, cap, and fittings frequently for cracks
or leaks. Replace if necessary.
Use an approved fuel container.
If fuel spills, wait until it evaporates before starting
engine.
When Starting Engine
Ensure that spark plug, muffler, fuel cap, and air clean-
er (if equipped) are in place and secured.
Do not crank the engine with the spark plug removed.
If fuel is spilled, do not attempt to start the engine, but
move the snowthrower away from the area of the spill,
and avoid creating any source of ignition, until the fuel
vapors have dissipated.
Do not over-prime the engine. Follow the engine start-
ing instructions in this manual.
If the engine floods, set choke (if equipped) to OPEN/
RUN position, move throttle (if equipped) to FAST
position and crank until engine starts.
When Operating Equipment
Do not tip the snowthrower at an angle which causes
the fuel to spill.

most common cause of injury associated with snowthrow-
ers.
Turn the engine OFF, wait for all moving parts to stop, and
remove the engine key before performing any maintenance
or repairs.
This snowthrower is equipped with two height adjust skids,
secured to the outside of the auger housing. These elevate
the front of the snowthrower.
When removing snow from a hard surface area such as a
paved driveway or walk, adjust the skids up to bring the front
of the snowthrower down.
When removing snow from gravel-covered or uneven sur-
faces, raise the front of the snowthrower by moving the skids
down. This will help to prevent rocks and other debris from
being picked up and thrown by the augers.
1. Determine how much clearance you want between the
scraper bar at the bottom of the auger housing and the
ground. If clearing a gravel surface, enough ground clear-
ance is needed to prevent the unit from picking up rocks.
2. Place a block equal to the desired ground clearance
under the scraper bar.
3. Loosen the skid shoe mounting nuts (A, Figure 11) and
push the skid shoe (B) down until it touches the ground.
Re-tighten mounting nuts.
4. Set the skid shoe on the other side at the same height.
WARNING
Thrown objects hazard
Objects such as gravel, rocks, or other debris, if struck
by the impeller, may be thrown with sufficient force to
cause personal injury, property damage, or damage to the
snowthrower.
Be sure to set the skid shoes at the proper height to main-
tain ground clearance for the type of surface being cleared.
If the unit will be stored for 30 days or more at the end of the
season, the following steps are recommended to prepare it
for storage. Always refer to the operator’s manual for impor-
tant details if the unit is to be stored for an extended period.
Please refer to the engine operator’s manual for engine stor-
age information.
NOTE: Fuel must be removed or treated to prevent gum
deposits from forming in the tank, filter, hose, and carburetor
during storage.
Off-Season Storage
WARNING
Fire and explosion hazard
Gasoline is highly flammable and its vapors are explosive.
Fumes may travel to a distant ignition source and an explo-
sion and/or fire may result.

the tank, indoors or in a poorly ventilated enclosure where
fuel fumes could reach an open flame, spark, pilot light,
such as a furnace, water heater, or clothes dryer.
Thoroughly clean the unit.
Lubricate all lubrication points (see Maintenance sec-
tion).
Make sure all nuts, bolts, and screws are securely fas-
tened. Inspect all visible moving parts for damage, break-
age, and wear. Replace if necessary.
Touch up all rusted or chipped paint surfaces; sand light-
ly before painting.

Control Lever Linkage Lubrication
WARNING
Amputation hazard
It is critical for safe operation of the unit that the controls
disengage when released. Under no circumstances should
the unit be used if the controls do not function properly.
See Safety Systems Tests to confirm correct operation.
The auger gear box is lubricated at the factory and should
not require additional lubrication. However, if lubricant has
leaked out or the auger gear box has been serviced, addi-
tional lubricant may be required.
To check the auger gear box grease level, remove the filler
plug (A, Figure 13). Using a piece of wire as a dipstick, check
to confirm the presence of grease in the gearbox. If grease is
visible, do not add. If grease is not visible, add the required
lubricant. Use the color of the remaining grease to determine
what type of lubricant to add. If the grease is white in color,
add Lubriplate GR132 Grease or equivalent. If the grease
is brown in color, add EP1 lithium grease or equivalent.
Gearbox lubricant capacity is 3-1/4 ounces (92 grams).
NOTE: Some auger gear boxes do not have a filler plug.
Please see your dealer for maintenance.
Lubricate Auger Gear Box
Auger Assembly Lubrication
Using a grease gun, lubricate the auger shaft fittings (B,
Figure 13). Refer to the Maintenance Schedule. Each time a
shear bolt or pin (C) is replaced, the auger shaft MUST be
greased.
For storage or when replacing shear bolts or pins, remove
the shear bolts or pins (C), lubricate the shaft fittings (B),
and rotate the augers several times to distribute the grease.
Reinstall the shear bolts or pins when complete.
NOTE: Some models are not equipped with grease fittings
and are exempt from these requirements.
Lubricate Auger Shaft Fittings
Lubricate the chute rotation gear (Figure 14) with grease, and
the deflector mechanism with automotive type oil. Refer to
