SNOW THROWING
TIPS
• For maximum
snow thrower efficiency in
removing snow, adjust ground speed,
NEVER the throttle. Go slower in deep,
freezing, or wet snow. If the tracks slip, re-
duce forward speed. The engine is
designed to deliver maximum perfor-
mance at full throttle and should be run at
this power setting at all times. Most effi-
cient snow blowing is accomplished when
the snow is removed immediately after it
falls.
• For complete snow removal, slightly over-
lap each path previously taken. Usa more
overlap in deep snow to prevent overload-
ing.
• The snow should be discharged down
wind whenever possible. In windy condi-
tions, lower the chute deflector to direct
discharged snow close to the ground,
where it is less likely to blow into un-
wanted areas.
• For normal usage, set the skids so that
the scraper bar is 1/8' above the skids,
For extremely hard-packed snow surfaces,
adjust the skids upward so that the
scraper bar touches the ground.
• On gravel or crushed rock surfaces, set
the skids at 1-1/4" below the scraper bar
(See To Adjust Skids Height paragraph
on page 17). Stones and gravel must not
be picked up and thrown by the machine.
• After the snow throwing job has been
completed, allow the engine to idle for a
few minutes, which will melt snow and
accumulated ice off the engine.
* Clean the snow thrower thoroughly after
each use.
.. _"
. Remove ice and snow accumulation and
all debris from the entire snow thrower,
and flush with water (if possible) to re-
move all salt or other chemicals. Wipe
snow thrower dry.
