OPERATION
TO ADJUST SKID PLATES (See Fig. 16)
NOTE: The wrench provided in your parts bag may be used to adjust the skid plates.
Skid plates are located on each side of the auger housing and adjust the clearance between the scraper bar and the ground surface. Adjust skid plates evenly to proper height for current surface conditions. For removal of snow in normal con di tions, such as a paved driveway or side walk, place skid plates in the highest position (lowest scraper clear ance) to give a 1/8" clearance between the scraper bar and the ground. Use a middle position if the surface to be cleared is uneven.
NOTE: It is not recommended to operate the snow thrower over gravel or rocky surfaces. Objects such as gravel, rocks or other debris, can easily be picked up and thrown by the impeller, which can cause serious personal injury, property dam age or damage to the snow thrower.
• If snow thrower must be operated over gravel surface, use extra caution and be sure skid plates are adjusted to lowest (highest scraper clear ance) position.
1. Shut off engine and wait for all moving parts to stop.
2. Adjust skid plates by loosening the hex nuts, then moving skid plate to desired position. Be sure both plates are adjusted evenly. Tighten securely.
ADD GASOLINE (See Fig. 17)
• Fill fuel tank to bottom of tank filler neck. Do not overfill. Use fresh, clean, regular unleaded gasoline with a minimum of 87 octane. Do not mix oil with gasoline.
Purchase fuel in quan ti ties that can be used within 30 days to assure fuel freshness.
WARNING: Wipe off any spilled oil or fuel. Do not store, spill or use gasoline near an open flame.
CAUTION: Alcohol blended fuels (called gas o hol or using ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture which leads to separation and for ma tion of acids dur ing storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of an engine while in storage. To avoid engine problems, the fuel system should be emptied be fore stor age of
30 days or longer. Empty the gas tank, start the engine and let it run until the fuel lines and carburetor are empty. Use fresh fuel next season. See Storage In struc tions for ad di tion al information. Never use engine or car bu re tor cleaner products in the fuel tank or per ma nent damage may occur.

2. Release the recoil starter handle and let it snap back against the starter.
If the engine still fails to start, repeat the above steps or use the electric starter.
SNOW THROWING TIPS
• Go slower in deep, freezing or heavy wet snow. Use the drive speed control, NOT the ON / OFF switch, to adjust speed.
• It is easier and more efficient to remove snow im me-
di ate ly after it falls.
• The best time to remove snow is the early morning. At this time the snow is usually dry and has not been exposed to the direct sun and warming tem per a tures.
• Slightly overlap each successive path to ensure all snow will be removed.
• Throw snow downwind whenever possible.
just the skid plates to proper height for current snow con di tions. See “TO ADJUST SKID PLATES” in this section of this manual.
• For extremely heavy snow, re duce the width of snow removal by over lap ping previous path and moving slowly.
• Keep engine clean and clear of snow during use. This will help air flow and extend engine life.
• After snow-throwing is completed, allow engine to run for a few minutes to melt snow and ice off the engine.
• Clean the entire snow thrower thoroughly after each use and wipe dry so it is ready for next use.
WARNING: Do not operate snow thrower if weather conditions im pair visibility. Throwing snow dur ing a heavy, windy snowstorm can blind you and be hazardous to the safe operation of the snow thrower.

BELTS
Check belts for deterioration and wear after every 50 hours of operation and replace if necessary. The belts are not ad just able. Replace belts if they begin to slip from wear.
(See “TO REMOVE BELT COVER” in the Service and
Adjustments section of this manual).
The belts on your snow thrower are of special con struc tion and should be replaced by original equipment man u fac tur er
(OEM) belts avail able from your nearest dealer. Using other than OEM belts can cause personal injury or damage to the snow thrower.
MAINTENANCE
AUGER GEAR CASE
• The gear case was filled with lubricant to the proper level at the factory. The only time the lubricant needs attention is if service has been performed on the gear case.
• If lubricant is required, use only Ronex ED #1 grease.
TRACTION DRIVE SYSTEM
DO NOT lubricate the drive components inside the snow thrower. The sprockets, hex shafts, drive disc and friction wheel require no lubrication. The bearings and bushings are lifetime lubricated and require no maintenance.
CAUTION: Any lubricating of the above com po nents can cause contamination of the friction wheel and damage to the drive system of your snow thrower.
ENGINE
See engine manual.
LUBRICATION
Use only high quality detergent oil rated with API service classification SG–SL. Select the oil's SAE viscosity grade according to your expected operating temperature.
1. Remove safety ignition key and disconnect spark plug wire from spark plug. Place wire where it cannot come in contact with plug.
2. Clean area around drain plug.
3. Remove drain plug and drain oil in a suitable container.
4. Install drain plug and tighten securely.
5. Wipe off any spilled oil from snow thrower and engine.
6. Install left wheel (if removed for draining oil). Be sure to install klick pin into proper hole in wheel axle (See “TO
REMOVE WHEELS” in the Service and Adjustments section of this manual).
7. Remove oil fill cap/dipstick. Be careful not to allow dirt to enter the engine.
8. Refill engine with oil through oil dipstick tube. Pour slowly. Do not overfill. For approximate capacity see
“PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS” section of this man u al.
9. Use gauge on oil fill cap/dipstick for checking level.
Be sure dipstick cap is tightened securely for accurate reading. Keep oil at “FULL” line on dipstick.
10. Wipe off any spilled oil.
MUFFLER
Inspect and replace corroded muffler as it could cre ate a fire haz ard and/or dam age.
SPARK PLUG
Replace spark plug at the beginning of each season or after every 100 hours of operation, whichever occurs first. Spark plug type and gap setting are shown in the “PROD UCT
SPEC I FI CA TIONS” section of this manual.
CLEANING
IMPORTANT: For best performance, keep snow thrower housing free of any dirt or trash. Clean the outside of your snow thrower after each use.
NOTE: Although multi-viscosity oils (5W30, 10W30 etc.) improve starting in cold weather, these multi-viscosity oils will result in increased oil consumption when used above
32°F. Check your engine oil level more frequently to avoid possible engine damage from running low on oil.
Change the oil after every 25 hours of operation or at least once a year if the snow thrower is not used for 25 hours in one year.
Check the crankcase oil level before starting the engine and after each five (5) hours of continuous use. Tighten oil fill cap / dipstick securely each time you check the oil level.
TO CHANGE ENGINE OIL
Determine temperature range anticipated before next oil change. All oil must meet API service classification SG–SL.
• Be sure snow thrower is on level surface.
• Oil will drain more freely when warm.
• Catch oil in a suitable container.
NOTE: The left side wheel may be removed from snow thrower for easier access to the oil drain plug and place ment of a suitable container. The unit tilted, resting on the frame with the left wheel removed, will help drain any oil trapped inside the engine. (See “TO REMOVE WHEELS” in the Service and Adjustments section of this manual).
WARNING: Remove safety ignition key and disconnect spark plug wire from spark plug. Place wire where it can not come in contact with plug.
• Keep finished surfaces/wheels free of gasoline, oil, etc.
• We do not recommend using a garden hose to clean your snow thrower unless the electrical system, muffler and carburetor are covered to keep water out. Water in engine can result in shortened engine life.

Immediately prepare your unit for storage at the end of the season or if the unit will not be used for 30 days or more.
WARNING: Never store the snow thrower with gaso line in the tank in side a build ing where fumes may reach an open flame, spark or pilot light as on a fur nace, water heater, clothes dryer or gas ap pli ance. Allow the engine to cool be fore storing in any enclosure.
SNOW THROWER
When snow thrower is to be stored for a period of time, clean it thor oughly, re move all dirt, grease, leaves, etc.
Store in a clean, dry area.
1. Clean entire snow thrower (See “CLEANING” in the
Main te nance section of this manual).
2. Inspect and replace belts, if necessary (See “TO RE-
PLACE BELTS” in the Service and Adjustments sec tion of this manual).
3. Lubricate as shown in the Main te nance sec tion of this man u al.
4. Be sure that all nuts, bolts, screws, and pins are securely fas tened. Inspect moving parts for damage, breakage and wear. Replace if nec es sary.
5. Touch up all rusted or chipped paint surfaces; sand lightly before painting.
ENGINE
See engine manual.
FUEL SYS TEM
IMPORTANT: It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming in essential fuel system parts such as carburetor, fuel hose, or tank during storage. Also, alcohol blended fuels (called gasohol or using ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture which leads to separation and formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of an engine while in storage.
• Empty the fuel tank by starting the engine and letting it run until the fuel lines and car bu re tor are empty.
• Never use engine or carburetor cleaner prod ucts in the fuel tank or permanent damage may occur.
• Use fresh fuel next season.
STORAGE
NOTE: Fuel stabilizer is an acceptable alternative in min-
i miz ing the formation of fuel gum deposits during stor age.
Add stabilizer to gasoline in fuel tank or storage container.
Always follow the mix ratio found on stabilizer container.
Run engine at least 10 min utes after adding stabilizer to allow the stabilizer to reach the carburetor. Do not drain the gas tank and carburetor if using fuel stabilizer.
ENGINE OIL
Drain oil (with engine warm) and replace with clean engine oil. (See “ENGINE” in the Maintenance section of this man ual).
CYLINDER
1. Remove spark plug.
2. Pour one ounce (29 ml) of oil through spark plug hole into cylinder.
3. Pull recoil starter handle slowly a few times to dis trib ute oil.
4. Replace with new spark plug.
OTHER
• Remove safety ignition key; store it in a safe place.
• Do not store gasoline from one season to another.
• Replace your gasoline can if your can starts to rust.
Rust and/or dirt in your gasoline will cause problems.
• If possible, store your snow thrower indoors and cover it to protect it from dust and dirt.
• Cover your snow thrower with a suitable pro tec tive cover that does not retain moisture. Do not use plastic.
Plastic cannot breathe, which allows con den sa tion to form and will cause your snow thrower to rust.
IMPORTANT: Never cover snow thrower while engine/exhaust area is still warm.
