STARTING THE SNOW THROWER
W A R N I N G
Avoid accidental start-ups. Verify that the operator is in the starting position when using the snow
thrower. In order to avoid serious injury, the operator and unit must be in a stable position when
starting the Snow Thrower.
USING THE SWITCH
This Snow Thrower is equipped with a special safety switch. In order to operate the switch, insert
one finger into the opening, and push the lever out so that it can be grasped along with the upper
handle. Pull the lever back in order to turn the Snow Thrower on, and hold it against the upper
handle in order to keep it running. To turn the Snow Thrower off, simply release the lever.
C A U T I O N
Do no attempt to override the operation of this safety switch.
OVERLOAD PROTECTION SWITCH
This Snow Thrower is equipped with an overload protection switch in order to protect the supply
circuit from short circuit overloads. Follow these steps if the switch pops out:
• Release the switch bar, and allow the Snow Thrower to stop and cool down for a minute.
• Press the overload switch in order to reset it. Resume operation (Fig. 2).
Follow these steps if the switch pops out again shortly after the first time:
• Allow the Snow Thrower to stop and cool down for 15 to 30 minutes.
• After the Snow Thrower has cooled down, press the overload switch in order to reset it.
Resume operation.
If the overload protection switch does not stay in, or if it continues to pop out during operation,
contact the Toll-Free Helpline, at 1-888-909-6757.
