General Safety WARNINGS!

You and any other operator of this snow thrower must read,

Notice the personal safety alert symbol

m

used in this

manual to draw your attention to a WARNING given along

with the particular operating instruction. This means that

the operation requires special ATTENTION, CAUTION,

and AWARENESS.

1. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered, dark areas

invite accidents.

2. Do not operate the snow thrower in an explosive

atmosphere,

such as in the presence of flammable

liquids, gases, or dust. Electrical appliances create sparks

that may ignite the dust or fumes.

3. Keep children, pets, and bystanders away from the

work area. Be aware that the normal noise of the

machine when turned on may make it difficult for you to

hear approaching people. Spectators should wear safety

glasses and be kept a safe distance away from the work

area. Do not let spectators touch the snow thrower or the

extension cord.

4. Electrical plugs must match the outlet. Never modify

the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with

grounded appliances. Unmodified plugs and matching

outlets will reduce the risk of electric shock.

5. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces

(i.e. upper and lower water pipes, radiators, ranges,

refrigerators, microwave ovens, and outer frames of

heating equipment). Take necessary precautions to avoid

electric shock. There is an increased risk of electric shock

if your body is earthed or grounded.

6. Do not abuse the cord. Keep the cord away from heat,

oil, sharp edges, or moving parts. Never carry the snow

thrower by its cord or yank the cord to disconnect it from

the electrical outlet. Damaged or entangled cords increase

the risk of electric shock.

7. Replace or properly repair damaged cords. If the cord

becomes damaged in any manner while plugged into the

wall receptacle, immediately pull the extension cord plug

from the receptacle.

8. Contact with water while operating the snow thrower

can result in electric shock and serious bodily injury.

Do not use the snow thrower in damp or wet locations or

expose to rain. Do not handle the plug or the appliance

with wet hands or while standing in water.

WARNING – Use outdoor extension cords marked

SW-A, SOW-A, STW-A, STOW-A, SJW-A, SJOW-A,

SJTW-A, or SJTOW-A. These cords are rated for outdoor

use and reduce the risk of electric shock.

10. Turn off the power switch and disconnect the power

cable before making any adjustments to the unit and

before inspecting, servicing, changing accessories, or

cleaning the snow thrower. Follow the same procedure

if any other dangerous conditions are present during

operation. Any adjustments to the unit should be

performed after revolving parts inside the snow thrower

stop completely. Such preventative safety measures

reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.

11. If you find the main power cable or the extension cable

damaged, please pull out the plug from the socket and

disconnect the power immediately. Repair the cable or

replace it if necessary.

12. When replacing any parts, you must strictly observe

the instructions and procedures described in this

operator's manual. Special care should be paid to any

rubber parts, since these parts may increase the engine

load and decrease its mechanical power if damaged.

13. Do not move or transport the snow thrower when the

plug is connected to the power socket and the switch

is turned on.
