Scraper Blade

The scraper blade allows the back of the

housing to keep better contact with the

surface being cleared. It also prevents

damage to the housing from wear.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT allow Scraper Blade

to wear too far or Auger/Impeller housing will

become damaged.

Skid Shoes

The skid shoes control the distance between

the scraper blade and the ground. Adjust skid

shoes equally to keep blade level with the

ground. Refer to Pre-Start on page 19 for

recommended settings.

FILLING FUEL TANK

GASOLINE

IMPORTANT: ALWAYS use gasoline that

meets the following guidelines:

• Clean, fresh gasoline.

• A minimum of 87 octane/87 AKI (91

RON). High altitude use may require a

different octane. Consult your engine

manual.

• Gasoline with up to 10% ethanol

(gasohol) or up to 10% MTBE (methyl

tertiary butyl ether) is acceptable.

• Use of any gasoline other than those

approved above will void the engine

warranty. If the pumps are not marked

for the content of alcohol or ethers,

check ethanol and MTBE levels with

the fuel supplier.

• Do not modify the fuel system to use

different fuels.

• Never mix oil and gasoline.

NOTICE: All gasoline is not the same. If the

engine experiences starting or performance

problems after using a new gasoline, switch

to a different fuel provider or fuel brand.

IMPORTANT: Excessively oxygenated or

reformulated fuels (fuels blended with

alcohols or ethers) can damage the fuel

system or cause performance problems. If

any undesirable operating problems occur,

use a gasoline with a lower percentage of

alcohol or ether.

Add Fuel Stabilizer to

Extend Fuel Storage Life

IMPORTANT: Fuel stabilizer is recommended

for extended storage. See Fuel System on

page 36.
