IMPORTANT:

WARNING: Experience indicates that alcohol blended
fuels (called gasohol or those using ethanol or methanol)
can attract moisture which leads to separation and formation of acids during storage, Acidic gas can damage
the fuel system of an engine while in storage. To avoid
engine problems, the fuel system should be emptied
before storage for 30 days or longer Start engine and let
it run until fuel lines and carburetor are empty Use
carburetor bowl drain to empty residual gasoline from
float chamber (See Fig 16), Use fresh fuel next season
(See Storage instructions on page 17 for additional
information,)

Reinstall the cap on the gasoline container and
shake container vigorously so the oil mixes with the
gasoline

O

Add an additional 3 U,S, quads of gasoline to the
gallon container and shake the container again,

AND CAUTION MUST BE USED WHEN
CAUTION; GASOLINE IS FLAMMABLE
HANDLING OR STORING IT. DO NOT
FILL FUEL TANK WHILE SNOW THROWER IS
RUNNING, HOT, OR WHEN SNOW THROWER IS
IN AN ENCLOSED AREA. KEEP AWAY FROM
OPEN FLAME OR ELECTRICAL SPARK, AND DO
NOT SMOKE WHILE MIXING FUEL OR FILLING
FUEL TANK. NEVER FILL FUEL TANK COMPLETELY, BUT FILL TANK TO WITHIN 1/4 -1/2
INCH FROM TOP TO PROVIDE SPACE FOR EXPANSION OF FUEL° ALWAYS FILL FUEL TANK
OUTDOORS AND USE A FUNNEL OR SPOUT TO
PREVENT SPILLING° MAKE SURE TO WIPE UP
ANY SPILLED FUEL BEFORE STARTING ENGINE.
A

FILL GAS
The two cycle engine used on this snow thrower requires
a mixture of gasoline and oil for lubrication of the bearings
and other moving parts. The correct fuel mixture ratio is
40:1 (32 oz oil per gallon of gas - see Fuel Mixture
Chad), Gasoline and oil must be pre-mixed in a clean
gasoline container Always use fresh, clean, unleaded
gasoline

(Mixture

40:1)

STORE GASOLINE IN A CLEAN, APPROVED
CONTAINER, AND KEEP CAP IN PLACE ON
CONTAINER. KEEP GASOLINE IN A COOL, WELL
VENTILATED PLACE, NEVER IN THE HOUSE.
NEVER BUY MORE THAN A 30 DAY SUPPLY OF
GASOLINE TO ASSURE VOLATILITY. GASOLINE
IS INTENDED TO BE USED AS A FUEL FOR
INTERNAL COMBUSTION
ENGINES; THEREFORE, DO NOT USE GASOLINE FOR ANY OTHER
PURPOSE° SINCE MANY CHILDREN LIKE THE

SNOW THROWING

as follows: (Remove finger from primer button be_
tween primes)

O

This snow thrower wilt propel itself forward when the
handle is raised enough to cause the auger blades to
contact the ground The auger should stop when
auger control bar is released If it does not, refer to
Adjust Auger Control Cable paragraph on page 14

e

For most efficienl snow throwing, turn the discharge
chute deflector to throw snow downwind, and slightly
overlap each swath. In light snow take upto a full cut
and in heavy snow take less than a full cut.

e

The distance snow will be discharged
can be
adjusted by moving the discharge chute deflector
Raise the deflector for more distance or lower the
deflector for less distance.

O

In windy conditions, lower the chute deflector to
direct discharged snow close to the ground where it
is less likely to blow into unwanted areas

O

Keep the area to be cleared free of stones, toys and
other foreign objects for safety and to prevent damage to the snow thrower

•

Do not use the auger propelling feature when
clearing gravel or crushed rock driveways Move the
handle down to raise the auger slightly

O

The allowable forward speed of the snow thrower is
dependent on the depth and weight of the snow.
Experience will establish the most effective method
of using the snow thrower under different conditions.

Two times if temperature

is 50 ° F to 15° F

Four times if temperature is below 15 ° F.
Pull the starter handle with a smooth rapid
movement° Do not allow the starter rope to snap back.
Rewind smoothly while holding the starter handle. If
the engine fires but does not start, putt the starter
handle until the engine starts,

e

Afterthree pulls, repeatthe priming and pulling steps
again.

e

As the engine warms up and begins to operate
evenly, move the choke control slowly to the OFF
position. If the engine falters, return to 1/2 choke until
it runs smoothly, then move to OFF position..

NOTE; Allow the engine to warm up for a few minutes
before using snow thrower, as the engine will not develop
full power until it reaches operating temperature

e

Be sure the choke is in the OFF position and pull the

AVERAGE

Snow up to eight inch depth can be removed rapidly
and easily by walking at a moderate rate For snow or
drifts of a greater depth you may find it desirabfe to
slow your pace to allow the discharge chute to

PACKED

SNOW

@ Move slowly into snow of this condition The greater
the depth, the slower you should go. When it appears
that the wet, packed snow is causing the auger to
slow down and the chute to clog, back off and begin
a series of short jabs into the snow These short back
and forth, 4 to 6 inch, jabbing motions wilt "belch" the
snow from the chute

SNOW BANKS
O

AND

DRIFTS

In snow of greater depth than the unit, use the
"jabbing" technique described above. Turn the discharge chute away from the snow bank More time
will be required to remove snow of this type than level

STORAGE

You can keep your engine in good operating condition during storage by:
O

OTHER

STORAGE

•

Gasoline must be removed or treated to prevent
gum deposits from forming in the tank, filter, hose,
and carburetor during storage. Also during storage,
alcohol blended gasolinethat uses ethanol or methanol (sometimes called gasohol) attracts water. It acts
on the gasoline to form acids which damage the
engine.
O To remove gasoline, runthe engine untitthetank
is
empty and the engine stops Then drain remaining
gasoline from carburetor by pressing upward on
bowl drain located on the bottom of carburetor (See
Fig 16)
O

Lubricating the piston/cylinder area This can be
done by first removing the spark plug and squirting a
few drops of clean engine oil intothe spark plug hole
Then cover the spark plug hole with a rag to absorb
oil spray Next, rotatethe engine by pullingthe starter
rope fully out two or three times Finally, reinstall
spark plug and attach spark p]ug wire

if possible, store your snow thrower indoors with the
gas re moved and cover it to give protectio n from dust
and dirt

@ tt the machine must be stored outdoors, block upthe
snow thrower to be sure the entire machine is off the
ground.
@ Cover the snow thrower with a suitable protective
cover that does not retain moisture Do not use
ptastic or vinyl
NOTE: A yearly checkup or tune-up at a Sears Service
Center is a good way of ensuring that your snow thrower
will provide maximum performance for the next season

If you do not want to remove gasoline, afuel stabilizer
(such as Craftsman fuel stabilizer No_33500) maybe
added to any gasoline left in the tank to minimize
gum deposits and acids. If the tank is almost empty,
mix stabilizer with fresh gasoline in a separate container and add some to the tank ALWAYS FOLLOW
INSTRUCTIONS
ON STABILIZER CONTAINER.
THEN RUN ENGINE AT LEAST 10 MINUTES AFTER STABILIZER IS ADDED TO ALLOW MIXTU RE TO REACH CARBURETOR. STORE SNOW
THROWER IN A SAFE PLACE. SEE WARNING
