1. Make a loop with the extension cord (Fig. 5)
Fig.5
2. Insert the loop through the opening in the

3. Connect the extension cord to the snow shovel
cord.
NOTE:
Securing the extension cord in this
way helps to prevent you from accidentally
disconnecting the extension cord from the snow
shovel during operation.
4. Plug the extension cord into a wall outlet.
5. Keep the area to be cleared free of stones,
toys or other foreign objects that the rotating
paddles might pick up and throw. Such items
could be covered by snow and are easy to
overlook, so be sure to conduct a thorough
inspection of the area before operating the
snow shovel.
Starting and Stopping
1. To start the electric snow shovel, push
and hold the safety lock button on the top
of the handle grip with your thumb and
then squeeze the trigger switch with your
fingers. Once the machine powers on, you
can release the safety lock button and
proceed with operation (Fig. 7).
2. To stop the electric snow shovel, release the
trigger switch (Fig. 7).

Operating Tips
• Start the electric snow shovel and tilt it forward
until the scraper blade at the base of the unit
contacts the ground. Push the shovel forward
at a comfortable rate, yet slow enough to clear
the path completely. The clearing width of the
snow shovel and the depth of snowfall should
dictate your forward speed.
• Direct the snow discharge to the right or to
the left by holding the electric snow shovel at a
slight angle.
• To remove snow most efficiently, throw the
snow downwind and slightly overlap each
swath.
• If you need to clear snow from a crushed rock
or gravel surface, push down on the handle to
clear the scraper of any loose material that the
rotating paddles could throw.
• This electric snow shovel cuts a path 12 in.
(30.5 cm) wide and up to 6 in. (15.24 cm) deep
in one pass.
• When clearing deeper drifts, hold the electric
snow shovel by the upper and lower handles
and use a swinging or sweeping motion.
Remove up to 6 in. (15.24 cm) of snow with
each pass and repeat as many times as
needed.
• Keep the cord clear of obstructions, sharp
objects and the rotating paddles. Do not pull
sharply on the cord or abuse it in any manner.
Frequently inspect the cord for signs of
damage. If damage is found, replace the cord
immediately.
• This electric snow shovel is equipped with
a 1 W LED light to faciliate clearing at night
and under conditions of poor visibility
(Fig. 8). When you start the machine, the
LED light will automatically power on and
illuminate the path in front of you. When
you stop the machine, the LED light will
automatically power off.
• Disconnect the extension cord after using the
electric snow shovel. Hang the extension cord
with the shovel so it will not be misplaced or
