OPERATION

NOTE
When first operating snow thrower give yourself ample time to acquaint yourself with the machine. Practice using ALL controls.

STARTING THE ENGINE (RECOIL START)

1. Turn ignition switch to “ON” position.

2. Pull choke.

3. Push primer button 1 to 4 times (depending on temperature}. In temperatures above +15°F (-10°C) use one or two primes. In temperatures below +15%F (-10°C) use three or four primes.
   To prime engine, fully depress primer bulb with your thumb (if primer bulb has a vent hole, be sure thumb covers hole when priming). Release and allow bulb to return to original position. An engine should be primed if it is new, cold, stored, unused for an extended period of time or has been run dry of fuel.

4. Start engine. Hot or cold start pull starter rope (see “STARTING INSTRUCTIONS” in engine manual).

5. When engine starts, push choke control in (if choking was necessary).

6. Pull up auger clutch control (if so equipped) to engage impeller. If adjustment is necessary refer to CARE AND MAINTENANCE section.

STARTING THE ENGINE (ELECTRIC START)

1. Plug cord into starter switch connector (H), Figure 6, and a convenient 120 volt outlet.

2. Follow steps 1,2 and 3 from recoil start engine starting instructions.

3. Press starter button (see “START ING INSTRUCTIONS” — Electric Start section in engine manual). Release as soon as engine starts.
   CAUTION
   DO NOT CRANK WITH ELECTRIC STARTER FOR MORE THAN 60 SECONDS. IF CRANKED FOR 60 SECONDS STARTER SHOULD NOT BE OPERATED AGAIN FOR 20 MINUTES TO ALLOW IT TO COOL.

4. After engine starts, push choke control in (if choking was necessary) and remove extension cord (from receptacle first).

5. Pull up auger clutch control (if so equipped) to engage impeller. If adjustment is necessary refer to CARE AND MAINTENANCE section.

STOPPING THE ENGINE

1. Turn ignition key to “OFF position.
   Remove key.

2. Be sure all moving parts have stopped before leaving the operator’s position.

** CAUTION**

STOP THE ENGINE BEFORE:

• Adding fuel.
• Leaving snow thrower unattended, if only for a minute.
• Clearing discharge opening.
• Making any repairs or adjustments to unit.

OPERATING TIPS

1. Before the first snowfall thoroughly inspect area where snow removal will take place. Remove all door mats, sleds, boards, wires, etc. that might be picked up and thrown by the impeller paddles.

2. Spray the inside of impeller paddle housing and directional vanes with Bolens silicone spray to help prevent srow build up. A coat of paste wax is also suitable.

3. All covers and guards must be in place and all nuts, screws and other fasteners tight.

4. Allow engine to warm up approximately five (5) minutes before using.

5. Removing snowfall as soon as possible produces the best results.

6. To obtain the greatest performance from snow thrower, place vanes in a vertical position, discharge snow down Wind and overlap each pass slightly.

7. The type of snow you are throwing will dictate to you how to use this machine. In light, fluffy snow the unit will propel itself if tilted forward slightly (fifting up on handle – as shown below) allowing the impeller paddles to contact the ground. In heavy wet snow the unit will propel itself forward without tilting.
   NOTE: The depth and weight of snow to be cleared will control forward speed of snow thrower.

8. In heavy, wet snow overlapping is essential to prevent overloading. Permit machine to work at a slow pace. If engine slows down due to overloading, pull unit back out of snow and/or release auger clutch control (if so equipped) until engine regains full  power. Then allow machine to propel itself back into snow.

9. To clear snow from steps or to cut down drifts, hold snow thrower by the upper and lower handles and use a side- to-side (swinging) motion.

10. Before storing unit, let engine run a few minutes to keep ice from forming on moving parts. Clear control panel of snow and/or water to eliminate passible freeze up of controls.

11. When storing unit, move vanes to vertical position to prevent possible distortion of vanes.
