Operating
Tips
I. For most efficient snow removal, remove snow im-
mediately after it falls.
2. Discharge
snow downwind
whenever possible.
Slightly overlap each previous swath.
3. Set the skid shoes 114" below the scraper bar for
normal usage. The skid shoes may be adjusted up-
ward for hard-packed snow. Adjust downward (rais-
ing the scraper bar) when using on gravel or
uneven surfaces.
4. Be certain to follow the precautions
listed under
"To Stop Engine" on page 12 to prevent possible
freeze-up.
5. Clean the snow thrower thoroughly after each use.
