WARNING!
Only operate the snow blower in conditions were you have clear
visibility in daylight or with adequate artificial lighting. Never snow
blow in darkness or in conditions where you cannot clearly see at least
100 yards in front and to the sides of the Power Unit and Snow Blower.
Make sure that you can clearly see and identify passersby, steep
slopes, ditches, drop-offs, overhead obstructions, power lines, debris
and foreign objects. If you are unable to clearly see these types of
items, discontinue snow blowing.
WARNING!
Extreme care should be taken when operating near loose objects such
as gravel, rocks, wire and other debris. Foreign objects should be
removed from the site to prevent machine damage and/or bodily injury
or even death. Any object that cannot be removed must be clearly
marked and carefully avoided by the operator. Stop snow blowing
immediately if the auger or fan strikes a foreign object. Repair all
damage before resuming snow blowing.
WARNING!
Many varied objects, such as wire, cable, rope, or chains can become
entangled in the operating parts of the Snow Blower. These items
could then swing outside the housing at high speeds. Such a situation
is extremely hazardous and could result in serious injury or even
death. Inspect the work area for such objects before snow blowing.
Remove any like object from the site. Never allow the auger to contact
such items.
WARNING!
Blow snow at the speed that you can safely operate and control the
Tractor and Snow Blower. Safe speed depends on terrain and snow
conditions. Normal ground speed range is from 0 to 5 mph. Use slow
speeds when operating on or near steep slopes, ditches, drop-offs,
overhead obstructions, power lines, or when debris and foreign objects
are to be avoided.
