The rotating parts of this machine have been designed and tested for rugged use. However,
the blades and rotating members could fail upon impact with heavy, solid objects such as
metal guard rails and concrete structures. Such impact could cause the broken objects to
be thrown outward at very high velocities. To reduce the possibility of property damage,
serious injury, or even death, never allow the rotating blades to contact such obstacles.

Always keep a careful lookout and use extreme care when working around utility lines.
Heavy snow or ice storms can cause utility lines to sag or drop to the ground. Never allow
the Snow Bower within 10 feet of any Utility power or gas line. When working close to Utility
lines consult your electric or gas company for a safe code of operation.
Before dismounting to clear a clogged machine, place the transmission in the park position,
set the parking brake, shut down all power, including the PTO and the engine and remove
the key. Wait until all rotating motion has stop before dismounting.
Snow can cover and hide solid objects such as guard rails, curbs, concrete structures, large
rocks, utility boxes, fire hydrants, etc. DO NOT allow the rotating parts of the Snow Blower
to contact such items. Inspect the area before operating the Snow Blower. Mark all solid
items clearly with a pole or flag. To reduce the possibility of property damage, serious injury,
or even death, never allow the rotating blades to contact such obstacles.
Operating, servicing and maintaining this equipment can expose you to chemicals including
gasoline, diesel fuel, lubricants, petroleum products, engine exhaust, carbon monoxide, and
phthalates, which are known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or
other reproductive harm. To minimize exposure, avoid breathing exhaust, do not idle the
engine except as necessary, service your vehicle in a well-ventilated area and wear gloves
or wash your hands frequently when servicing your vehicle. Battery posts, terminals and
related accessories contain lead and lead compounds, chemicals known to the state of
California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information go
to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov. This website, operated by California's Office of Environmental
Health Hazard Assessment, provides information about these chemicals and how
individuals may be exposed to them.
The Implement can block the operators vision directly in front of the Implement. Inspect the
area before operating the Implement and make sure that there are no obstacles, passersby,
or coworkers in the path of the Implement.
