WARNING: Experience indicates that alco-
hol blended fuels (called gasohol or those
using ethanol or methanol) can attract mois-
ture which leads to separation and
formation of acids during storage. Acidic
gas can damage the fuel system of an en-
gine while in storage. To avoid engine
problems, the fuel system should be emp-
tied before storage for 30 days or longer.
Start the engine and let it run until the fuel
lines and carburetor are empty. Use the car-
buretor bowl drain to empty residual
gasoline from the float chamber. Use fresh
fuel next season (see Storage instructions
on page 17 for additional information).
Never use engine or carburetor cleaner
products in the fuel tank or permanent dam-
age may occur.

above.
FROZEN RECOIL STARTER
If the starter is frozen and will not turn engine:
• Pull as much rope out of the starter as
possible.
•Release the starter handle and let it snap
back against the starter.
If the starter still fails to turn engine, repeat
the two previous steps until the starter en-
gages. Then continue with the directions for
cold start.
To help prevent possible freeze-up of recoil
starter and engine controls, proceed as fol-
lows after each snow removal job.
• With the engine running, pull the starter
rope hard with a continuous full arm
stroke three or four times. Pulling of
starter rope will produce a loud clattering
sound. This is not harmful to the engine
or starter.
•With the engine not running, wipe all
snow and moisture from the carburetor
cover in area of control levers. Also
move throttle control, choke control, and
starter handle several times.
SNOW THROWING TIPS
•For maximum snow thrower efficiency
operate engine at (Full) throttle. The en-
gine is designed to deliver maximum
performance at full throttle and should be
run at this power setting at all times.
• Most efficient snow throwing is accom-
plished when the snow is removed
immediately after it falls.
• For complete snow removal, slightly
overlap each path previously taken.
• The snow should be discharged down
wind whenever possible.
• After the snow throwing job has been
completed, allow the engine to idle for a
few minutes, which will melt the snow
and accumulated ice off the engine.
• Clean the snow thrower thoroughly after
each use.
• Remove ice and snow accumulation and
all debris from the entire snowthrower,
and flush with water (if possible) to re-
move all salt or other chemicals. Wipe
snow thrower dry.
GENERALRECOMMENDATIONS
The warranty on this snow thrower does not
cover items that have been subjected to op-
erator abuse or negligence. To receive full
value from the warranty, the operator must
maintain the snow thrower as instructed in
this manual. The chart on the next page is
provided to assist the operator in properly
maintaining the snow thrower.
Some adjustments will need to be made pe-
riodically to properly maintain your snow
thrower.

AFTER FIRST USE
•Check for any loose or damaged parts.
• Tighten any loose fasteners.
• Check and maintain the auger.
AFTER EACH USE
•Remove all snow and slush off the snow
thrower to prevent freezing of auger or
controls.
•Check controls to make sure they are
functioning properly.
•If any parts are wom or damaged,
replace immediately.
SNOW THROWER
ENGINE LUBRICATION
Check the crankcase oil level (see figure be-
low) before starting the engine and after
each five (5) hours of continuous use. Add
S,A.E. 5W30 motor oil as needed. Tighten
fill cap/dipstick securely each time you
check the oil level. S.A.E. 0W30 motor oil
may be used to make starting easier in ar-
eas where the temperature is 20 ° F or
lower.

OIL RECOMMENDATION
Only use high quality detergent oil rated
with APt service classification SG. Select
the oil's viscosity grade according to your
expected operating temperature.
NOTE: For extreme cold operating condi-
tions of 0°and below, use a partial synthetic
0W30 motor oil for easier starting.
NOTE: Although multi-viscosity oils im-
prove starting in cold weather, these multi-
viscosity oils will result in increased oil
consumption when used above 32°F. Check
your engine oil level more frequently to
avoid possible engine damage from running
low on oil.
Change the oil every 25 hours and at the
beginning of each season.
•Position the snow thrower so that the oil
drain plug is at the lowest point on the
engine. Remove the oil drain plug and the
oil fill cap/dipstick. Drain the oil into asuit-
able container. Oil will drain more freely
when warm.
• Replace the oil drain plug and tighten se-
cutely.
Oil FillCap/Dipstick
SPARK PLUG
• Make sure that the spark plug is tightened
.securely into the engine and the spark
plug wire is attached to the spark plug.
• If a torque wrench is available, torque
plug to 18 to 23 foot pounds.
• Clean the area around the spark plug
base before removal to prevent dirt from
entering the engine.
• Clean the spark plug and reset the gap
periodically at .030 inch.
Z_ CAUTION: Always disconnect the
spark plug wire and tie back away from
the plug before making any adjustments
or r3paire.
TO ADJUST THE CLUTCH CONTROL
CABLE
Periodic adjustment of the cable may be re-
quired due to normal stretch and wear on
the belts. To check for correct adjustment,
the control lever must be in the full forward
p_ 3ition, resting on the plastic bumper. The
control cable is correctly adjusted when the
center of the "Z" fitting is between the cen-
ter and top of the hole in the clutch le, ,_r
and there is no droop in the cable (see first
figure).
If adjustment is necessary:
• Disconnect "Z" fitting from drive lever
(see first figure).
•Push the cable through the spring (see
second figure), to expose the threaded
portion of the cable.

TO REPLACE AUGER SHEAR BOLT
The augers are secured to the auger shaft
with special bolts (see figure below ) that
are designed to break (to protect the ma-
chine) if an object becomes lodged in the
auger housing. Use of a harder bolt will de-
stroy the protection provided by the shear
bolt.
IMPORTANT: To ensure safety and perlor-
mance levels, only original equipment shear
belts should be used. When replacing shear
belts, be sure to replace shear belt spacers.

To replace a broken shear bolt, proceed as
follows:
•Move the throttle to O(Stop) and turn
off all controls.
• Disconnect the spark plug wire. Be sure
all moving parts have stopped.
•Remove the broken shear bolt.
•Align the hole in the auger with the hole in
the auger shaft. Install the new shear pin,
spacer and Iocknut found in toolbox lo-
cated on top of belt cover.
•Reconnect the spark plug wire.
TO ADJUST CARBURETOR
If you think your carburetor needs adjusting,
see your nearest Authorized Craftsman Ser-
vice Center. Engine performance should
not be affected at altitudes up to 7,000 feet.
For operation at higher elevations, contact
your Authorized Craftsman Service Center.
IMPORTANT: Never tamper with the en-
gine govemor, which is factory set for
proper engine speed. Over speeding the
engine above the factory high speed set-
ting can be dangerous. If you think the en-
gine-governed high speed needs adjusting,
contact your nearest Craftsman Service
Center, which has the proper equipment
and experience to make any necessary ad-
justments.
TO ADJUST OR REPLACE THE
16
SPARK PLUG
NOTICE: This spark ignition system meets
all requirements of the Canadian Interfer-
ence-Causing Equipment Regulations.
NOTICE: This engine complies with all cur-
rent Australian and New Zealand limitations
regarding electromagnetic interference.
If you have difficulty starting your snow
thrower, you may need to adjust or replace
the spark plug. Follow the instructions be-
low.
Replace the spark plug if the electrodes are
pitted or burned or if the porcelain is
cracked.
To Adjust:
• Clean the spark plug by carefully scrap-
ing the electrodes (do not sand blast or
use a wire brush).
•Be sure the spark plug is clean and free
of foreign material. Check the electrodes
gap (see figure below) with awire feeler
gauge and reset the gap to .030 inch if
necessary.
To Replace:
•If you need a new spark plug, use only
the proper replacement spark plug (see
page 13). "
•Set the gap to .030 inch.
•Before installing the spark plug, coat its
threads lightly with oil or grease to insure
easy removal.
•Tighten the plug firmly into the engine.
• If atorque wrench is available, torque the
plug to 18 to 23 ft. - Ibs.
/_ CAUTION" Never store your snow
thrower indoors'or in an enclosed, poorly
ventilated area if gasoline remains in the
tank. fumes may reach an open flame,
spark or pilot light from a furnace, water
heater, clothes dryer, cigarette, etc.
To prevent engine damage (if snow thrower
is not used for more than 30 days) follow
the steps below.
SNOW THROWER STORAGE
• Thoroughly clean the _now thrower.
•Lubricate all lubrication points (see the
Maintenance section on pages 12-14).
•Be sure that all nuts, bolts and screws are
securely fastened. Inspect all visible mov-
ing parts for damage, breakage and wear.
Replace if necessary.
• Touch up all rusted or chipped paint sur-
faces; sand lightly before painting.
• Cover the bare metal parts of the blower
housing auger and the impeller with rust
preventative, such as a spray lubricant.
NOTE: A yearly checkup or tune-up by a
Craftsman Service Center is a good way to
insure that your snow thrower will provide
maximum performance for the next season.
ENGINE STORAGE
Gasoline must be removed or treated to
prevent gum deposits from forming in
the tank, filter, hose, and carburetor dur-
ing storage. Also during storage, alcohol
blended gasoline that uses ethanol or
methanol (Sometimes called gasohol) at-
tracts water. It acts on the gasoline to
form acids which damage the engine.
• To remove gasoline, run the engine until
the tank is empty and the engine stops.
Then drain remaining gasoline from car-
buretor by pressing upward on bowl drain
located on the bottom of carburetor (see
figure on right).
• If you do not want to remove gasoline,
use fuel stabilizer supplied with unit or
purchase Craftsman Fuel Stabilizer No.
33500. Add fuel stabilizer 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 con-
tainer. Then run engine at least 10 minutes
after stabilizer is added to allow mixture to
reach carburetor. Store snow thrower in a
safe place. See Waming above.
You can keep your engine in good operating
condition during storage by:
•Changing oil (see page 10).
•Lubricating the piston/cylinder area. This
can be done by first removing the spark
plug and squirting a few drops of clean
engine oil into the spark plug hole. Then
cover the spark plug hole with a rag to ab-
sorb oil spray. Next, rotate the engine by
pulling the starter rope fully out two or
three times. Finally, reinstall spark plug
and attach spark plug wire.
OTHER
•If possible, store your snow thrower in-
doors and cover it to give protection from
dust and dirt.
•If the machine must be stored outdoors,
block up the 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 mois-
ture. Do not use plastic or vinyl.
IMPORTANT: Never cover snow thrower
while engine and exhaust areas are still
warm.
