- Honda Snow Blower Owner's Manual

9. TRANSPORTING

Before loading

1. Loading the snowblower on a trailer should be performed on a firm,

level surface.

2. Use a loading ramp that is strong enough to support the combined

weight of the snowblower and the operator:

Weight of snowblower: 116 kg (253.4 lb)

(Operating weight)

3. The loading ramp must be long enough so that its slope is 15O or less:

Length of 1 2.5 m ( 3.0 m 1 3.5 m 1

4. If the truck bed has a low roof or cover, with less than 1.5 m (4.9 ft) of

headroom, lower the chute guide for better clearance, or remove the

chute assembly.

5. Check that there is sufficient fuel in the tank. Engine may stall on the

ramp if there is little fuel in the tank.

1. Step on the foot pedal, and raise the auger to the HIGH position (p. 14).

2. Maneuver the snowblower into line with the loading ramp.
