DANGER!
Never direct discharge of snow towards people, pets, or property.
CAUTION!
Excessive speed of drop may cause damage or injury. Fully lowering
implement should require at least two seconds.
CAUTION! Do not operate the snow blower PTO drive in the fully raised position.
WARNING!
Stop engine, disengage power take-off, and remove ignition key whenever leaving tractor operating
position.
When implement is ready to snow blow do not use the snow blower to PUSH SNOW! Let the machine work its
way through deep drifts and hard packed snow. For best results keep the snow blower fan running at rated PTO
speed. If the tractor engine starts to labour, gear down.
Do not continously operate the snow blower in transport position, as this will shorten the life of the universal joints.
Tractor chains and weighted tires will increase traction and improve preformance especially in icy conditions.
The casting chute should not plug during normal operation. However, if fan RPM is allowed to drop drastically in
wet, sticky conditions, or if a sheat bolt breaks in the fan the casting chute may plug. If the chute should plug, try
raising the snow blower to transport position and the dropping it suddenly, if this fails to clear blockage, the casting
chute will have to be manually cleared.
CAUTION!
Do not allow snow ot ice to build up around the chute rotation mechanism
as this may cause damage to snow blower chute or the chute rotator
mechanism.
When operating the snow blower occasionally rotate the chute left then right to clear the front housing of snow.
