The roller wheels on each side of the rater housing? are
adjustable either .'up or dawn to suit the surface over which
the Sno-Away is to be operated- For smooth surface, loos¬
en the nuts and sot the shoes so that the lower edge of the
rotor housing rides near the surface.
For use over an
uneven or rough surface adjust the shoes for maximum lift.
When using the Soo-Away, adjust the discharge spout
bo
that the snow will be thrown with the wind and never into
the wind. Throwing snow Into the wind will be a source of
discomfort to the operator-
To alter the direction of
discharge, rotate the spout by means of the spout adjusting
handle.
The distance that the enow may be thrown maybe
actuated by loosening the two wing nuts on the discharge
spout extension and raising or lowering the extension to
give the desired angle- After adjusting, push the extension
snugly against the spout assembly to prevent snow from
being blown backwards against the engine and Operator-
Slotted holes beneath the wjtig nuts will allow this to be
done before tightening the wing nuts to hold the extension
in the desired position.
When operating the Sno-Away through heavy drifts of
anowT depress the handles and raieethe rotor housing while
taking the first pass through the drift. Then back off and
lower the rotor housing and go through again. After the
first path through the drift has been opened, it maybe
convenient to ufie only a portion of the width of the plow on
successive passes.
Naturally, efficient plowing methods
will vary from one snowfall to another and from location to
location. The operator will soon learn to judge which me¬
thods produce the beet results- When transporting the plow
from one location to another, disengage the rotor clutch
for safety.

After completion of plowing operation, allow the engine to
operate In a sheltered area for about 5 minutes to dry
Itself and prevent the formation of toe-
When possible,
store the Sho-Away In a cold are a so that clinging snow will
not melt and re-freeze into ice.
