SECTION 3: KNOW YOUR SNOW THROWER
WARNING: Read, understand, and follow
all instructions and warnings on the machine
and in this manual before operating.
Chute Tilt Control
The distance snow is thrown can be changed by
adjusting the angle of the chute assembly. Move the
chute tilt control forward to decrease the distance,
toward the rear to increase. See Figure 7.
Throttle Control
The throttle control is located on the engine. It regulates
the speed of the engine. See Figure 7.
Discharge Chute
The angle of the discharge chute controls the distance
that the snow is thrown. Tilt the discharge chute up for
greater distance; tilt down for less distance.
Skid Shoes
The space between the shave plate and the ground can
be adjusted by positioning the skid shoes. Refer to Skid
Shoe Adjustment on page 12.
