Safety Instructions
All Operators Must Read These
Instructions Before Use
Any electrical appliance can be dangerous if used incorrectly.
Some of the safety precautions given in this manual apply
generally to many appliances. Other warnings are specific
to the use of this snow thrower. Keep this manual for future
reference.
General Safety WARNINGS!
You and any other operator of this snow thrower must read,
understand, and follow these instructions in their entirety, and
should reread them at the start of each snow season. Failure
to follow these instructions may result in ELECTRIC SHOCK,
FIRE, and/or serious PERSONAL INJURY.
Notice the personal safety alert symbol
manual to draw your attention to a WARNING given along
with the particular operating instruction. This means that
the operation requires special ATTENTION, CAUTION, and
AWARENESS.
1. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered, dark areas
invite accidents.
2. Do not operate the snow thrower in an explosive
atmosphere, such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases, or dust. Electrical appliances create sparks
that may ignite the dust or fumes.
3. Keep children, pets, and bystanders away from the
work area. Be aware that the normal noise of the
machine when turned on may make it difficult for you to
hear approaching people. Spectators should wear safety
glasses and be kept a safe distance away from the work
area. Do not let spectators touch the snow thrower or the
extension cord.
4. Electrical plugs must match the outlet. Never modify
the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with
grounded appliances. Unmodified plugs and matching
outlets will reduce the risk of electric shock.
5. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces
(i.e. upper and lower water pipes, radiators, ranges,
refrigerators, microwave ovens, and outer frames of
heating equipment). Take necessary precautions to avoid
