Auger

When engaged, the augers rotation draws snow into the auger

housing and throws it out the discharge chute. Rubber paddles

on the augers also aid in propelling the snow thrower as they

come in contact with the pavement.

Auger Control

Located on the upper handle, the auger control handle is used

to engage and disengage drive to the auger. Squeeze the control

handle against the upper handle to engage the auger; release it

to disengage.

Chute Assembly

Rotate the discharge chute to the left or right using the chute

handle. The pitch of the discharge chute controls the angle at

which the snow is thrown. Loosen the wing knob on the side of

the discharge chute before pivoting the discharge chute upward

or downward. Retighten the knob once the desired position has

been achieved.

Shave Plate

The shave plate maintains contact with the pavement as

the snow thrower is propelled, allowing snow close to the

pavement’s surface to be discharged.

Electric Starter Outlet

The electric starter outlet requires the use of a three-prong

outdoor extension cord and a 120V power source/wall outlet.
NOTE: The electric starter is mounted to the plastic shroud and is

shown in Fig. 4-1 attached to the engine for easier reference.

Electric Starter Button

Pressing the electric starter button engages the engine’s electric

starter when plugged into a 120V power source.
