11. OPERATING THE SNOW BLOWER
When ready for field use, stop the snow blower and
set the chute deflector and drum chute to the
desired position. Make sure that the blade is
running at an even height at both ends. Ensure
scraper blade clearances of about 1/4" are set for
paved surfaces. Also when running over uneven or
gravelled surfaces keep blade clearance at about 1"
to avoid blowing rocks & debris.
Before operating the snow blower recheck that all
fasteners, nuts, bolts, screws and cotter pins are in
place and all bolts are torqued to specification.
Adjust skid shoes to desired blade height.
Only operate the snow blower in conditions were you have clear visibility in daylight or with
adequate artificial lighting. Never snow blow in darkness or in conditions where you cannot
clearly see at least 100 yards in front and to the sides of the Tractor and Snow Blower.
Make sure that you can clearly see and identify passersby, steep slopes, ditches, drop-offs,
overhead obstructions, power lines, debris and foreign objects. If you are unable to clearly
see these types of items, discontinue snow blowing.
DO NOT operate this Implement on a Tractor that is not properly maintained. Should a
mechanical or Tractor control failure occur while operating, immediately shut down the
Tractor and perform repairs before resuming operation. Serious injury and possible death
could occur from not maintaining this Implement and Tractor in good operating condition.
