Operating the Auger/Impeller
Drive
1. To engage the auger/ impeller drive, squeeze the
right hand (auger/ impeller) lever to the handgrip
(Figure 28).
2. To stop the auger and impeller, release the right

traction lever locks the auger/impeller lever
down, freeing your right hand. To release both
levers, simply release the left hand (traction)
lever.
3. If the auger and impeller continue to rotate when
you release the auger/impeller lever, do not operate
the snowthrower. Check the auger/impeller cable
(refer to Checking and Adjusting the Auger/Impeller
Cable) and adjust it if necessary. Otherwise, take the
snowthrower to an Authorized Dealer for service.
If the auger and impeller continue to rotate
when you release the auger/impeller lever, you
could seriously injure yourself or others.
Do not operate the snowthrower. Take it to an
Authorized Service Dealer for service.
