Tips for Operation

Snow is best removed as soon as possible after snow

fall.

To clear an area, run unit in an overlapping series of

paths. For large areas, start in the middle and throw

snow to each side, so snow is not cleared more than

once.

ALWAYS direct snow away from area to be cleared and

with direction of the wind.

To travel from one work area to another:

1. Set Throttle to Slow or Part-Throttle position.

2. Press down on handlebars enough to raise front

3. Disengage traction drive clutch and push unit to

new work area.
