Anleitung Zusammenfassung
IMPORTANT: Know how to operate all controls before adding fuel or attempting to start the engine. Filling the Fuel Tank Fill the fuel tank with fresh unleaded gasoline, do not exceed 87 octane rating (Figure 8). IMPORTANT: Do not add oil to the gasoline. IMPORTANT: Do not use E85 blended fuels. This engine is not E20/E30/E85 compatible. Alternative fuels with high alcohol content can cause hard starting, poor engine performance, and may cause internal engine damage. Checking the Engine Oil Level NOTE: 10W30 synthetic oil is acceptable for use in cold temperatures. 1. Move the snowthrower to a level surface. 2. Clean around the dipstick (Figure 9). NOTE: Dipstick location may vary depending on engine type. 3. Remove either side mounted filler cap dipstick or high oil fill dipstick and wipe it clean. 4. Insert the dipstick into the filler neck and turn clockwise until fully seated. Then remove the dipstick by turning it counter-clockwise. 5. Fill oil to "FULL" on dipstick with the recommended oil. 6. Securely screw in the oil filler cap/dipstick. NOTE: Running the engine with a low oil level can cause engine damage. Always check the engine oil before start up. NOTE: Running the engine with too much oil may cause engine damage and excess smoke in the exhaust. Always check the engine oil level before start up. NOTE: For best results, purchase only the quantity of gasoline that you expect to use in 30 days. Otherwise, you may add fuel stabilizer to newly purchased gasoline to keep it fresh for up to 6 months. Figure 8 1. Oil filler cap/dipstick Figure 9 1 Fill if oil is below letter “L” on the filler cap Fill if oil is below “Add” on the dipstick 8 Starting the Engine 1. Push key in (Figure 10). 2. Move choke lever to left position (Figure 11). 3. Firmly push in the primer 3 times with your thumb, holding the primer in a for a second before releasing it each time (Figure 12). NOTE: Remove your glove when you push in the primer so that air cannot escape from the primer hole. IMPORTANT: Do not use the primer or the choke if the engine has been running and is hot. Excessive priming may flood the engine and prevent it from starting. 4. Connect an extension cord to the snowthrower and plug the other end into a three-hole grounded 120 volt A.C. receptacle and push the electric-start button (Figure 13), or pull the recoil start handle (Figure 14). NOTE: Use only a UL-listed, 16-gauge extension cord recommended for outdoor use that is not longer than 50 feet (15 m). 1. Primer Figure 12 1 Figure 10 1. Key 1 Figure 13 1.

Disengaging the Auger Blades To disengage the auger blades, release the control bar (Figure 16). The electrical cord can become damaged, causing a shock or fire. Thoroughly inspect the electrical cord before plugging it into a power source. If the cord is damaged, do not use it to start the snowthrower. Replace or repair the damaged cord immediately. Contact an Authorized Service Dealer for assistance. IMPORTANT: Run the electric starter no more than 10 times at intervals of 5 seconds on, then 5 seconds off. Running the electric starter extensively can overheat and damage it. If the engine does not start after this series of attempts, wait at least 40 minutes to allow the starter to cool before attempting to start it again. If the engine does not start after the second series of attempts, take the snowthrower to an Authorized Service Dealer for service. NOTE: If you pull the recoil handle and feel no resistance, the starter may be frozen. Thaw out the starter before attempting to start the snowthrower. 5. While the engine is running, move the choke lever slowly to the right position. 6. Unplug the extension cord from the power source and the snowthrower (Figure 13). Unplug the power cord whenever you are not starting the snowthrower. Figure 15 1. Control bar 1 Figure 16 1. Control bar 1 1.

Adjusting the Discharge Chute and Chute Deflector To adjust the discharge chute, move deflector chute handle left or right to desired position (Figure 18). To raise or lower the angle of the chute deflector, loosen the chute deflector knob on the chute deflector and move the chute deflector up or down (Figure 18). 1. Chute deflector knob 2.

Stop the engine, wait for all moving parts to stop, and remove ice and snow from the snowthrower. • Clean off any snow and ice from the base of the chute. • Rotate the discharge chute left and right to free it from any ice buildup. • With the ignition key in the Off position, pull the recoil starter handle several times or connect the elec...
