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 for30 days or longer. Start the engine and
let it run until the fuel lines and carburetor are empty, Use
the carburetor' bowl drain to empty residual gasoline from
the float chamber (See Fig_ 19)_ Use fresh fuel next
season. (See Storage Instructions on page 18 for additional information°)

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 (3.2 oz,. oil per gallon of gas - see Fuel Mixture
Chart), Gasoline and oil must be premixed in a clean
gasoline container, Always use fresh, clean, unleaded
gasoline._

@ Add (3,2 oz) of clean, high quality, Craftsman twocycle oil to the gasoline container

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
SMELL OF GASOLINE, KEEP IT OUT OF THEIR
REACH
BECAUSE
THE
FUMES
ARE
DANGEROUS TO INHALE, AS WELL AS BEING
EXPLOSIVE.

@ This snow throwerwill propel itself forward when the
handle is raised enough to cause the auger blades to
contact the ground

TO START THE ENGINE

For most efficient snow throwing, turn the discharge
chute deflector to throw snow downwind, and slightly
overlap each swath. Use more overlap in deep snow
to prevent overloading

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

Move the choke control to FULL position.

Push the pdmer button while covering the vent hole
as follows: ( Remove finger' from primer button
between pdmes).

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

(Recoil Starter) Fig. 8
Before starling the engine, be certain that you have read
and understood all the instructions on the preceding
pages.

COLD START
Insert the key and turn ON1.

Keep the area to be plowed free of stones, toys and
other foreign objects Such items might be cover ed by
the first snow fall and picked up by the auger while
plowing.
DRY AND AVERAGE
SNOW

Do not prime if temperature is above 50°F.
Two times if temperature is 50 ° F_to 15 ° F
Four times if temperature is below 15° F
Remove finger from primer button between
primes..
@

Pult the starter hand!e 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, pull the starter
handle until the engine starts..

After three pulls, repeat the priming and pulling steps
again..

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

TiPS

Snow up to eight inch depth can be removed rapidly
by walking at a moderate rate For snow or drifts of
a greater depth, you may find it desirable to slow your
pace to allow the discharge chute to dispose of the
snow as rapidly as the auger receives the snow..

Plan to have the snow discharged in the direction the
wind is blowing.

WET PACKED
@

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

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 will "belch" the
snow from the chute°

AND DRIFTS

@ In snow of greater depth than the unit, use the

will be required to remove snow of this type than level

Lubricating the piston/cylinder area This can be
done by first removing the spark plug and squirting
clean engine oil into the spark plug hole Then cover
the spark plug hole with a rag to absorb oil spray
Next, rotate the engine by pulling the starter two or
three times Finally, reinstall spark plug and attach
spark plug wire.

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 gasoline that uses ethanol or methanol (sometimes called gasohol) attracts water, it acts
on the gasoline to form acids which damage the
engine.
@ To remove gasoline,runthe engine untilthe tank 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 19)
O

in good operating condition

If possible, store your snow thrower indoors and
cover it to give protection from dust and dirt

@ If the machine must be stored outdoors, block upthe
snow thrower to be sure the entire machine is off the
ground
@ Cover' the snow lhrower with a suitable protective
covet that does not retain moisture Do not use
plastic or vinyl
NOTE: A yearly checkup or tuneup 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, a fuel stabilizer
(such as Craftsman fuel stabilizer No 33500) may be
added to any gasoline left in the tank to minimize
gum deposits and acids If the tank is almost empty,
mix stablilizer 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
MIXTURE TO REACH CARBURETOR_ STORE
