Functional description and purpose
This machine is designed to clean fresh snow on playgrounds, areas around houses, sidewalks,
parking lots, courtyards, paths, alleys, gardens and more. In accordance with the safety instructions
provided in this operating manual, the use of snowthrower for other purposes is considered to be
unsuitable and the manufacturer assumes no responsibility for any damages and damage incurred.
Making changes to the design of the machine on its own initiative relieves the manufacturer of any
liability for damage. Work with the machine is related to the possibility of injury and damage to third
parties and their property located in the work area.
Clearing a Clogged Discharge Chute
Hand contact with the rotating impeller inside the discharge chute is the most common cause of injury
associated with snow throwers. Never use your hand to clean out the discharge chute.
To clear the chute:
1. SHUT THE ENGINE OFF!
2. Wait 10 seconds to be sure the impeller blades have stopped rotating.
3. Always use a clean-out tool, not your hands.
Do not modify engine
To avoid serious injury or death, do not modify engine in any way. Tampering with the governor setting
can lead to a runaway engine and cause it to operate at unsafe speeds. Never tamper with factory.
