ALL ADJUSTMENTS OR REPAIRS MUST BE DONE WITH THIS POWER TOOL DISCONNECTED FROM THE POWER SOURCE.
FAILURE TO COMPLY MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY!
GENERAL INFORMATION- 120V single phase operation
This snow thrower comes with a 13 Amp. 120V single phase motor.
WARNING!
YOUR SNOW THROWER MUST BE CONNECTED TO A 110V-120V, 15 AMP.
1 phase electrical supply. FAILURE TO CONNECT IN THIS WAY CAN RESULT IN
INJURY FROM SHOCK OR FIRE.
The snow thrower polarized plug (A) Fig.1 is intended for use with a polarized UL
outdoor rated extension cord (B) as illustrated in Fig.1.
DOUBLE INSULATION
Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (Fig.1- one blade is wider than the other).
This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse
the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install a polarized outlet. Do not alter
or change the plug in any way. Double insulation eliminates the need for three wire grounded power
cords and grounded power supply system.
EXTENSION CORDS
Always use UL or CSA listed 2-prong polarized extension cords rated for outdoor use. The use of
any extension cord will cause some loss of power. Use the table (Fig.2) to determine the minimum
wire size (A.W.G-American Wire Gauge) extension cord needed.
For circuits that are further away from the electrical circuit box, the wire size must be increased
proportionately in order to deliver ample voltage to the motor. Refer to Fig.2 for wire length and size.
WARNING!
Replace damaged cords immediately. Use of damaged cords can shock, burn or
electrocute.
CONNECTING EXTENSION CORD TO SNOW THROWER PLUG
To prevent the extension cord (A) Fig.3 from disconnecting during use, lock the
extension cord in the cord retainer (B) as shown before connecting the tools plug to
an extension cord.
Plug the female end of the extension cord (C) Fig.3 into the tool's polarized plug (D).
