1,2.. CONTROL LOCATIONS The information below briefly describes the function of individual controls. Starting, stopping, and driving require the combined use of several controls applied in specific sequences. To learn what combination and sequence of controls to use for various tasks see the OPERATION section. Speed Selector Selects forward speeds 1-5 and reverse speeds 1-2. No neutral position or gate is required, since the traction drive design automatically provides "neutral" (no forward or reverse movement), whenever the Drive Control is released. Traction Control / Free Hand™ Lock Engages traction drive to whe ...

9 Fuel Fuel tank filler cap (see illustration). Note: The fuel shut off valve is located under the fuel tank or on the front of the engine. Close the valve when the snowthrower is not in use. Open the valve before starting. Primer Button When pressed, the primer button provides initial fuel to help start a cold engine. Normally, pressing the primer button twice will provide enough fuel to start a cold engine. Throttle Lever Controls engine speed. Move toward the hare icon for faster engine speed, move toward the turtle icon for slower engine speed. Move the throttle all the way to STOP to stop the engine. Set throttle to FULL/ ...

1. Make sure all safety guards are in place and all nuts, bolts and clips are secure. 2. Check to make sure that the clean-out is attached to the handle on the machine. Do not operate the machine without the clean-out tool properly stored on the handle. 3. Check the engine oil level. See your engine owner’s manual for procedure and specifications. 4. Check to make sure spark plug wire is attached and spark plug is tightened securely. If necessary, torque spark plug to 15 ft. lbs. 5. Check the fuel supply. Fill the tank no closer than 1/4 to 1/2 inch of top of tank to provide space for expan- ...

cold. (Do not choke a warm engine.) 5. Push the primer button (D) two times if engine is cold. (Do not prime a warm engine.) 6. Engine Mounted Electric Start: Press the starter button to crank the engine. Manual Start: Pull starter handle (C) rapidly to start the engine. Do not allow the starter handle to snap back—let the starter rope rewind slowly—while keep- ing a firm grip on the starter handle. 7. As the engine starts and begins to operate evenly, turn the choke knob (G) slowly counter-clockwise to the OFF position, and set the Throttle Lever to SLOW. If the engine falters, ...

Fully press and hold the auger engage control (C, Figure 2) on the right-hand grip to begin auger rota- tion. Releasing the auger engage control will disen- gage the auger —unless the Free-Hand™ Control has been activated (See step 5 below). 4. Fully press and hold the tr ...

by the position of the deflector. (Engine speed also affects distance of discharge.) The more the deflector is tilted UP, the farther snow will be thrown. Models with Chute Deflector Knob See Figure 3. 1. Loosen the deflector knob, tilt the deflector UP or DOWN. 2. Retighten the knob when desired angle has been chosen. Models with Remote Deflector Control See Figure 4. 1. Turn the remote deflector control (C) counterclock- wise to UNLOCK, and the spring (B) will pull the deflector to the maximum throwing position (A). Push the knob UP to decrease the throwing distance. 2. T ...

TRACTION DRIVE LOCK While Clearing Snow: For easy turning when using the snowthrower, squeeze the Easy Turn™ lever (Figure 6). Engaging the Easy Turn™ lever releases the right traction wheel but allows the left wheel to continue driving (Figure 6). Releasing the Easy Turn™ lever automatically engages both drive wheels for full traction. NOTE: The Easy Turn™ lever will be more difficult to activate under a heavy load. Activate the lever before beginning a turn. When Pushing the Snowthrower: For easy turning when pushing the snowthrower, disen- gage the right wheel using the traction lock pin (See Fig ...

Normal use of the snowthrower may result in a build-up of packed snow in and around the starter cord housing and around engine controls. Heat from the engine will usually prevent the snow from freezing solid while the unit is running, but after the engine is shut down, some snow may continue melting from engine heat, and later freeze around some moving parts as the unit cools. After each period of use, follow these steps to prevent freeze-up caused by ice formation in and around the engine controls and external parts. 1. Before shutting off the engine, pull the starter rope out 2 - 3 times, and allow it to rewind slowly. This ...

1. Place the snowthrower on a level surface. 2. Remove the pipe plug (A, Figure 9). 3. Check the lubricant level. It should be level with the lower edge of the plug opening. If not, add The Dealer Line Winter Weight Worm Gear Oil (available from your dealer). 4. Re-install pipe plug, and tighten securely. Figure 9. Auger Lubrication A. Pipe Plug Figure 8. Checking Tire Pressure CHECKING TIRE PRESSURE The air pressure in each tire (Figure 8) should be 20 psi (136 kPa) and should be equal for both tires for best per- formance. Be sure to keep caps on valves to prevent entry of debris into the valve stem ...

Apply medium weight (10W) oil to points shown (See Figures 10-13). Apply 5W-50 synthetic motor oil to the friction disk drive hex shaft (A, Figure 11). Generally, all moving metal parts should be oiled where contact is made with other parts. Keep oil and grease off belts, pulley grooves, drive disc, and friction disc. LUBRICATION NOTES: Grease locations indicated by grease gun symbol. Use grease fittings when present. Disassemble parts to apply grease to moving parts when grease fittings are not installed. Oil locations indicated by oil can symbol. Do not allow oil to drip onto traction drive ...

LINKAGE Check the function of the Free-Hand controls: the con- trols should function as described in the CONTROLS section. It is critical for the safe operation of the unit that the controls disengage when released. If the controls do not function properly, lubricate them. If lubrication does not rectify the problem, see your dealer. Under no circumstances should the unit be used if the controls are not functioning properly. Figure 16.
