SNOWBLOWER SAFETY

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Honda snowblowers are designed to clear snow from driveways and
walkways. Other uses can result in injury to the operator or damage to
the snowblower and other property.
Most injuries or property damage with snowblowers can be prevented
if you follow all instructions in this manual and on the snowblower.
The most common hazards, are discussed below, along with the best
way to protect yourself and others.
Avoid Rotating Auger
The snowblower auger can cause serious cuts and even amputate
fingers, hands, toes, or feet. Keep away from the auger whenever the
engine is running. If you need to work around the snowblower to clear
snow for any reason, always shut off the engine. If the snow discharge
chute becomes clogged, stop the engine and disconnect the spark
plug cap. Use the snow clearing bar or a wooden stick to remove the
obstructions. Never put your hand into the snow discharge chute
while the engine is running; serious personal injury could result.
Clear Operation Area
The snowblower can throw rocks and other objects with enough force
to cause serious injury. Before operating the snowblower, carefully
inspect the area and remove any visible stones, sticks, bones, nails,
pieces of wire, and other loose objects. Never use the snowblower to
clear snow from a gravel road or driveway, as rocks may be picked up
and ejected. They may cause injury to bystanders.
