BEFORE OPERATION
CHECK YOUR WORK AREA
For your safety and the safety of others, always inspect the area before
operating the snowblower.
Objects
Anything which can be picked up by the augers and thrown is a
potential hazard to you and others. Thoroughly inspect the area where
the equipment is to be used and remove all doormats, sleds, boards,
wires, stones, and nails, and remove them from the work area.
People and Pets
People and animals near the work area can move into your
snowblowers path or into a position where they could be struck by
thrown objects. Clear the area of people, especially children, and pets.
Their safety is your responsibility.
Work Area
Check the condition of the snow. Adjust your snowblower ground
speed (not engine speed) and snowblowing swath accordingly.
Check the skid for proper adjustment. Adjust the skid to obtain the
auger ground clearance for the type of surface the snowblower will be
operated over (see page
42
).
Carefully check the area before backing the snowblower.
