BEFORE OPERATION
CHECK YOUR WORK AREA
For your safety and the safety of others, always inspect the area
before operating the snow blower.
Objects
Anything which can be picked up by the augers and thrown is a
potential hazard to you and others. Thoroughly inspect the area where
the equipment is to be used and remove all doormats, sleds, boards,
wires, stones, and nails from the work area.
People and Pets
People and animals near the work area can move into your snow
blower's path or into a position where they could be struck by thrown
objects. Clear the area of people, especially children, and pets. Their
safety is your responsibility.
Work Area
Check the condition of the snow. Adjust your snow blower ground
speed (not engine speed) and snowblowing swath accordingly.
Check the skid for proper adjustment. Adjust the skid to obtain the
auger ground clearance for the type of surface the snow blower will be
operated over (see page 47).
Carefully check the area before operating the snow blower in reverse
or when backing up close to fences or walls.
