WARNING! 

Make sure that the chute deflector locks 

completely onto the discharge chute. An opening between 

the discharge chute and the chute deflector may allow foreign 

objects to be picked up by the snow blower and thrown in the 

direction of the operator causing serious bodily injury.

•  Do not advance the chute deflector too far forward as this 

can cause an opening to appear between the deflector and 

discharge chute.

•  Do not overtighten the knobs on the chute deflector 

 

(Fig. 

15).

WARNING! 

Make sure to turn off the switch and 

remove the battery before performing any maintenance task 

on your snow blower.

Lifetime Lubrication (Motor + Auger)

Lubrication is not necessary and may damage the unit. The 

snow blower is lubricated for lifetime use at the factory before 

shipment.

General Maintenance Tips

1.  Do not attempt to repair the machine unless you have the 

proper tools and instructions for disassembly and repair of 

the machine.

2.  Check bolts and screws at frequent intervals for proper 

tightness to ensure that the equipment is in safe working 

condition.

3. 

After each snow removal session, run the snow 

blower 

for a few minutes to prevent the collector/impeller from 

freezing. Shut off the motor, wait for all revolving parts to 

stop 

completely, and wipe residual ice and snow off the 

unit. 

Rotate the chute deflector by the chute control crank 

several times to remove any excess snow.

Proper Care for B Charger

1. 

To reduce the risk of injury and damage, never immerse 

your battery pack or charger in liquid or allow any liquid to 

flow inside these components.

2.  Clean out dust and debris from charger vents and 

electrical contacts by blowing with compressed air.

3.  Use only mild soap on a damp cloth to clean the battery 

pack and charger, keeping away from all electrical 

contacts. Certain cleaning agents and solvents are 

harmful to plastics and other insulated parts. Some of 

these include gasoline, turpentine, lacquer thinner, paint 

thinner, chlorinated cleaning solvents, ammonia and 

household detergents containing ammonia. Never use 

flammable or combustible solvents around battery packs, 

battery chargers or tools.
