Specifications - Craftsman 536.886150 Owner's Manual

snow blowing is accomplished when the
snow is removed immediately after it
falls,
• For complete snow removal, slightly over-
lap each path previousJy taken Use
more overlap in deep snow to prevent
overloading
• 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 sur-
faces, 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
CUSTOMER RESPONSIBILITIES

move all salt or other chemicals. Wipe
