2. The chute deflector on the top of the discharge chute
controls the height of the snow stream. Loosen the knob
to raise or lower the deflector to the desired height of
snow you wish to throw. Tighten the knob to secure the
deflector (Fig. 16).

WARNING!
Make sure that the chute deflector snaps
and 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 thrower and
thrown in the direction of the operator causing serious boldly
injury.
• Do not advance the chute deflector too far forward causing
an opening to appear between the deflector and discharge
chute.
• Do not overtighten the knobs on the chute deflector.

WARNING!
Make sure to turn off the switch and
disconnect the extension cord before performing any
maintenance task on your snow thrower.
Lifetime Lubrication (Motor + Auger)
Lubrication is not necessary and may damage the unit. The
snow thrower 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 thrower
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 crank several times to remove any
excess snow.
4. Only use a cloth soaked with hot water and a soft brush to
clean the snow thrower; never wet or spray water on the
machine!
