10 Working instructions
10.1 Instructions for blowing snow
• It is easier and more efficient to clear snow immedi-
ately after is has fallen and before it gets too high.
• The angle when pushing the product affects the ejec-
tion width and the remaining snow height.
• Clear the top snow layer in several passes when
clearing greater snow heights.
• Allow the product to run for a few minutes after clear-
ing the snow so that the moisture dries and moving
parts do not freeze.
• Wait until all moving parts have come to a standstill.
• Remove the batteries after completing work.
