Chute Directional Control
The chute directional control is located on the left side of the
snow thrower.
•
To change the direction in which snow is thrown, crank
clockwise to discharge to the left and counterclockwise to
discharge to the right.
Auger Control
The auger control is located on the left handle. Squeeze the
control grip against the handle to engage the augers and start
snow throwing action. Release to stop.
Drive Control / Auger Clutch Lock
The drive control is located on the right handle. Squeeze the
control grip against the handle to engage the wheel drive.
Release the handle to stop.
The drive control also locks the auger control so that you can
operate the chute directional control without interrupting
the snow throwing process. If the auger control is engaged
simultaneously with the drive control, the operator can release
the auger control (on the left handle) and the augers will remain
engaged. Release both controls to stop the augers and wheel
drive.
NOTE: Always release the drive control before changing speeds.
Failure to do so will result in increased wear on your machine’s
drive system.
Two-Way Chute Control™
The two-way chute control is located on the left side of the dash
panel and is used to control the distance of snow discharge from
the chute.
•
To change the upper chute angle to control the distance
that snow is thrown, pivot the lever forward or backward.
• Move the lever forward to pivot the upper chute down and
reduce the distance snow is thrown.
• Move the lever rearward to pivot the upper chute upward
and increase the distance snow is thrown.
