Electric Starter

Determine that your home’s wiring is a two-wire

grounded system. Ask a licensed electrician if you

are not certain.

WARNING:

The optional electric starter is

equipped with a grounded two-wire power

plug, and is designed to operate on 120 volt

AC household current. It must be used with a

properly grounded two-prong receptacle at all

times to avoid the possibility of electric shock.

If your home’s wiring system is not a grounded

system, do not use this electric starter under any

conditions.

If your home electrical system is grounded, but a

two-hole extension cord is not available, do not

use your snow blower’s electric starter.

Follow all instructions carefully prior to operating

the electric starter.

If you have all of the above, proceed as follows:

1) Plug the extension cord into the outlet

located on the engine’s surface. Plug the

other end of extension cord into a 120-volt,

grounded, AC outlet in a well-ventilated area.

2) Place choke control to FULL choke position

(for a cold engine start).

If the engine is already warm, place choke

control in the OFF position instead of FULL.

3) Push the primer two or three times for

cold engine start, , marking sure to cover

vent hole in the center of the primer when

pushing.

DO NOT use primer to restart a warm

engine after a short shutdown.

4) Push start button to start engine.

5) Once the engine starts, release starter

button.

6) AS the engine warms, slowly rotate the

choke control to the OFF position. if the

engine falters, quickly rotate the choke

control back to FULL and then slowly into the

OFF position again.

7) When disconnecting the extension cord,

always unplug the end at the wall outlet

then unplug the opposite end from the

snowblower.

Recoil Starter

position (cold engine start).
