W A R N I N G
In order to prevent electric shock, use an extension cord that is suitable for outdoor use.
• Inspect the extension cord and the power cord on a regular basis. Look for deterioration,
cuts, or cracks in the insulation. Inspect the connections for damage. Repair or replace the
extension cord or the power cord if any damage is found.
• Verify that the rotor and all moving parts have come to a complete stop, and disconnect the
Snow Thrower from the power supply in order to prevent accidental start-ups before cleaning
or performing any inspections or repairs.
• Do not abuse the extension cord. Do not carry the Snow Thrower by the power cord or pull on
the cord in order to disconnect it from the receptacle.
• Keep the extension cord away from heat, oil, and sharp edges in order to prevent damage.
• If the extension cord is damaged in any manner while it is plugged in, disconnect it from the
outlet immediately.
• Avoid accidental start-ups. Do not carry the Snow Thrower with a finger on the switch while
it is plugged in. Verify that the switch is in the "OFF" position before plugging in the Snow
Thrower.
• Unplug the Snow Thrower and allow it to cool down before putting it into storage. Store the
Snow Thrower indoors.
• Unplug the Snow Thrower when it is not in use and before performing any maintenance or
repairs.
