9. Some parts of the snow thrower may freeze under
extreme temperature conditions. Do not attempt to
operate the snow thrower with frozen parts. If the parts
freeze while the snow thrower is in use, stop the snow
thrower, unplug the extension cord and inspect for frozen
parts. Free all parts before restarting or operating the
snow thrower. Never force controls that have frozen.
10. When working on pebbles, gravel or unpaved surfaces,
avoid throwing loose surface material along with the snow
by pushing down on the handle to raise the scraper bar at
the base of the unit above the pebbles or gravel.
Changing Throw Direction and
Throw Height
1. The discharge chute can be adjusted 180 degrees by
rotating the chute crank. Rotate the chute control crank
clockwise to move the discharge chute to the left (Fig.18)
and counterclockwise to move the chute to the right
(Fig.19).
NOTE: A little lubricant, such as WD-40, will provide a
smoother operation of the chute (spray at points A and B
as indicated in Fig. 18).
2. The chute deflector on the top of the discharge chute
controls the height of the snow stream. Loosen the knob
to raise or lower the deflector to the desired height of
snow you wish to throw. Tighten the knob to secure the
deflector (Fig. 20).

Never direct the snow discharge chute at the
operator, at bystanders, at vehicles or at nearby
windows. The discharged snow and foreign objects
accidentally picked up by the snow thrower can
cause serious damage and personal injury.
Always orient the discharge chute in the opposite
direction from where you, bystanders, surrounding
vehicles or windows are located.
