Clearing Snow - Honda HS1336iAS Owner's Manual

OPERATION

CLEARING SNOW

For efficient operation, it is important to select an adequate engine speed for
the required snow discharge distance and clear the snow without lowering the
engine speed. If the engine speed keeps dropping by setting the main shift
lever in the slow position, clear the snow as follows.
 Clearing in narrow width
When the snow is deep or hard, set the main shift lever in slow and clear the
snow using a narrower clearing width (less than the width of the snow
blowing mechanism).
 Clearing with back and forth motions
If the snow is so hard that the snow blower tends to ride over the surface,
push it back and forth to remove snow gradually.
When the mode selector switch is in AUTO or POWER, the auger housing
automatically rises while going in reverse.
USA model only:
In case the auger clutch switch is in the ON position, the auger is automatically
returned to the original position when the snow blower is transporting forward
again.
