Know how to stop the snowblower quickly, and understand the opera-
tion of all controls.
Never permit anyone to operate the snowblower without proper instruc-
tion. If people or pets suddenly appear in front of the snowblower while
it is in operation, immediately release the auger and drive.clutch levers to
stop the snowblower and avoid possible injury from rotating auger
blades.
If the snow discharge chute becomes clogged, stop the engine and use a
wooden stick to unclog it. Never put your hand into the snow discharge
chute while the engine is running; serious personal injury could result.
Gasoline is extremely flammable and is explosive under certain condi-
tions. Do not smoke or allow flames or sparks where the snowblower is
refueled or where gasoline is stored. Refuel in a well-ventilated area with
the engine stopped. Do not overfill the fuel tank, and make sure the filler
cap is closed securely after refueling.
Never run the engine in a closed garage or confined area. Exhaust gas
contains poisonous carbon monoxide; exposure may cause loss of con-
sciousness and may lead to death.
The muffler becomes very hot during operation and remains hot for a
while after stopping the engine. Be careful not to touch the muffler while
it is hot. Let the engine cool beforestoring the snowblower indoors.
NOTE: While operating the snowblower, hold the handle firmly, and walk,
don't run. Wear suitable winter boots that resist slipping.
