INTRODUCTION
A FEW WORDS ABOUT SAFETY
Your safety and the safety of others is very important, and using this
snowthrower safely is an important responsibility.
To help you make informed decisions about safety, we have provided
operating procedures and other information on labels and in this
manual. This information alerts you to potential hazards that could hurt
you or others.
Of course, it is not practical or possible to warn you about all the
hazards associated with operating or maintaining a snowthrower. You
must use your own good judgment.
You will find important safety information in a variety of forms including:
• Safety Labels — on the snowthrower.
Safety Messages — preceded by a safety alert symbol  and
•
one of three signal words: DANGER, WARNING, or CAUTION.
These signal words mean:
 DANGER
 WARNING
 CAUTION
• Safety Headings — such as IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
• Safety Section — such as SNOWTHROWER SAFETY.
• Instructions — how to use this snowthrower correctly and safely.
This entire book is filled with important safety information — please
