SNOWTH ROWER CONTROLS Auger Control A. Auger Control =This control engages and disengages the auger. Pull the control back against handle to engage the auger, (this will pull snowthrower forward if auger is in contact with the ground). Release the Auger Control to stop rotation of auger. Deflector Controls B. Chute Direction Control =The Chute Direction Control (B, Figures 4&5) allows the discharge chute to be rotated to throw snow in the desired direction.
Cofltrols& Operatm ENGINE & STARTING CONTROLS NOTE: Throttle = This snow thrower does NOT have a throttle for controlling operating speed of engine, The engine governor maintains operating speed for varying snow removal conditions. Electric A. Start Units Only Electric Start Button =The Electric Start Button (A, Figure 6) activates an electric starter mounted to the engine, eliminating the need to pull the starter handle.
Controls& Operation GENERAL OPERATION CHECKS . . BEFORE EACH START-UP ,A_ WARNING Make sure all safety guards are in place and all nuts, bolts and clips are secure.

Cofltrols& Operatm FUEL AND OIL MIXTURE FUEL TO OIL MIXTURE CHART (50:1) U.S. The snowthrower uses a two cycle engine that requires a mixture of fuel (gasoline) and oil for lubrication of engine bearings and other moving parts. Imperial Metric Gasoline 2 Cycle0il Gasoline 2 Cycle0il Gasoline 2 Cycle0il Gallons Ounces Gallons Ounces Liters Milliliters The correct fuel/oil mixture ratio for the five horsepower engine is 50 to 1. Use fuel/oil mixture chart shown.
