WARNING TO PREVENT INJURIES: Never leave the driver seat without disengaging the snowblower, stopping the engine, applying the parking brakes and removing the ignition key. Never operate on slopes of more than 10%. NOTE: To increase the life span of the components, always disengage the snowblower when it is raised. SNOWBLOWER OPERATION IMPORTANT: Always inspect the hydraulic components and hoses before using. Replace any damaged or worn parts immediately. If you suspect a hose leak, DO NOT use your hand to locate it. Use a piece of cardboard or wood. a) Make sure the snowblower is clear of snow before engaging the snowblower. b) Make sure that the auger and impeller operate freely. c) Start the tractor engine. d) Before engaging the snowblower drive, always have the engine running at medium R.P.M. e) Operate the snowblower at maximum engine R.P.M. f) Always use the accessory in the Float mode. Push the tractor’s hydraulic joystick to Float position. IMPORTANT: USE FULL ENGINE R.P.M. WHEN REMOVING WET OR STICKY SNOW. LOW R.P.M. WILL TEND TO PLUG THE CHUTE. WARNING TO PREVENT INJURIES: Always check to see that both ends of the PTO shaft are securely attached every time the snowblower is used. This should always be done with the tractor engine off. Do not run the snowblower without the PTO shield in place Operate only tractors equipped with ROPS and seatbelts. WARNING Hand contact with the rotating impeller inside the discharge chute is the most common cause of injury associated with snowblowers. Never use your hand to clean out the discharge chute. -Do not attempt to clear plugged chute, auger or fan of snow while the snowblower's engine is running. -Disengage snowblower. -Lower snowblower to the ground and set parking brake. SNOW REMOVAL When removing snow, do not use the snowblower as a dozer blade to push snow. Allow snowblower to ingest snow at its own speed. If the speed of your tractor is too fast, the snowblower may become overloaded and plug. For best results, raise the snowblower and remove a top layer of snow. A second pass with the snowblower will remove the remaining snow. -SHUT THE ENGINE OFF & REMOVE KEY! -Wait 10 seconds to be sure that all moving parts such as the impeller blades have stopped moving. -Do not use hand to unplug chute use a clean out tool of at least 36’’ (1m) length. 13 OPERATION CONTROLS WARNING Familiarize yourself with the controls before using the equipment. TO PREVENT INJURIES WHEN ADJUSTING THE :DEFLECTOR Stop the accessory Stop the tractor’s engine Apply the parking brake Remove the key from the ignition. CHUTE ROTATION Use the tractor’s hydraulic joystick to turn the chute from one side to the other. If the chute does not turn in the desired direction, switch the hydraulic hoses on the tractor. CHUTE DEFLECTOR Be thoroughly familiar with the controls before operating the equipment To change the angle of the deflector, use the tractor’s control lever for the hydraulic auxiliary valve. Make sure you know the effect of the lever has on the position of the deflector. If the lever is pushed forward, this will move the chute in a X direction, if the lever is pulled, this will move the chute in a X direction. If you prefer to reverse the directions, simply change the hoses on the auxiliary valve. Make sure to be familiar with the speed at which the deflector moves when using the control lever to make sure you send the snow in the right place. 14 MANUALLY MAINTENANCE WARNING AUGER AND REPLACEMENT TO PREVENT INJURIES: Stop the vehicle’s motor. Apply parking brake. Remove the ignition key. FAN SHEAR BOLT Shear bolts are to be considered as preventive measure and not an assured protection. Operator vigilance is required.
