  • Page 6: Safety Rules

    Safety Rules WARNING This unit is a “two-stage” snowthrower. The first stage is the auger, which feeds the snow back into the impeller housing. The second stage is the impeller, which throws the snow out the discharge chute. If bodily contact is made with the auger or impeller when they are rotating, severe personal injury will occur.

The more the deflector is tilted back, the farther snow will be thrown. Loosen the knob (figure 3) to tilt the deflector back or forward, then retighten the knob.
