shipment.
General Maintenance Tips
1. Do not attempt to repair the machine unless you have the
proper tools and instructions for disassembly and repair of
the machine.
2. Check bolts and screws at frequent intervals for proper
tightness to ensure that the equipment is in safe working
condition.
3. After each snow removal session, run the snow thrower
for a few minutes to prevent the collector/impeller from
freezing. Shut o the motor, wait for all revolving parts to
stop completely, and wipe residual ice and snow o the
unit. Rotate the chute crank several times to remove any
excess snow.
4. Only use a cloth soaked with hot water and a soft brush to
clean the snow thrower; never wet or spray water on the
machine!
5. Do not use detergent or solvents as these could cause
irreparable damage to the snow thrower. Chemicals can
destroy the plastic parts.
6. To protect the snow thrower from corrosion when storing
for long periods, lightly oil the metal parts.
7. Store the appliance in a dry area out of reach of children.
