Auger
When engaged, the augers rotation draws snow into
the auger housing and throws it out the discharge
chute. The rubber paddles on the augers also aid in
propelling the snow thrower as they come in contact
with the pavement.
Activating the choke control closes the choke plate on
the carburetor and aids in starting the engine. Refer to
the engine manual packed with the snow thrower for
more detailed instructions regarding the choke.
Primer
Auger Control Handle
Depressing the primer forces fuel
directly into the engine’s carburetor to
aid in cold-weather starting. Refer to
the engine manual packed with the
snow thrower for more detailed
instructions regarding the primer.
Located on the upper handle, the auger control handle
is used to engage and disengage drive to the auger.
Squeeze the control handle against the upper handle to
engage the auger; release it to disengage.
Discharge Chute / Chute Handle
Rotate the discharge chute to the left or right using the
chute handle. The pitch of the discharge chute controls
the angle at which the snow is thrown. Loosen the wing
knob on the side of the discharge chute before pivoting
the discharge chute upward or downward. Retighten
the knob once the desired position has been achieved.
Ignition Key
The ignition key must be present,
inserted in the key switch, and in the
“ON” position for the engine to start.
Starter Handle
The starter handle is used to manually start the engine.
Shave Plate
Electric Starter Button (If so equipped)
Pressing the electric starter button engages the
engine’s electric starter when plugged into a 120V
power source
The shave plate maintains contact with the pavement
as the snow thrower is propelled, allowing the snow
close to the pavement’s surface to be discharged.
