Never, under any circumstances, make adjustments while  
the engine is running (unless otherwise specified in the  
instructions).  
1 SYMBOLS  
The following symbols appear on the machine. They are  
there to remind you of the care and attention required in use.  
This is what the symbols mean:  
Allow the snow thrower to adjust to the outdoor  
temperature before using it.  
Always use protective goggles or a visor during use,  
maintenance and service.  
Warning. If the regulations are not followed, there  
is a risk of danger to life and machine breakdown.  
2.3 OPERATION  
Keep hands and feet away from rotating parts. Always  
Read the owner’s manual before operating the  
machine.  
avoid the discharge chute opening.  
Be careful when driving on or crossing gravel paths,  
pavements and roads. Be aware of hidden dangers and  
traffic.  
Never direct the discharge chute towards a public road or  
traffic.  
If the snow thrower hits a foreign object, stop the engine,  
disconnect the spark plug cable and carefully inspect the  
machine for damage. Repair the damage before using the  
machine again.  
If the machine starts vibrating abnormally, stop the  
engine and look for the cause. Vibration is normally a  
sign of something wrong.  
The snow thrower may only be connected to power sock-  
ets that are supplied with earth leakage circuit breakers.  
The earth leakage circuit breaker must have a trip current  
of max. 30 mA.  
Keep bystanders at a safe distance from the  
machine.  
Warning of hard objects flying off.  
The power supply must be disconnected before  
carrying out cleaning or maintenance.  
The electric cable must be kept away from the auger  
opening. Check that the connection cable is always  
fault free. Only fault-free cables may be used.  
Keep hands and feet away from rotating parts.  
Risk of death and maiming.  
Risk of tripping over the electric cable. Always be aware  
of the whereabouts of the electric cable so that it does not  
get in the way of your feet or anything else moving about  
in the area.  
Risk of fatal electric shocks  
The snow thrower may only be connected with a cable  
that is approved for outdoor use.  
The electric cable with which the snow thrower is con-  
nected must always be intact. It must never be used if it  
displays signs of damage.  
The snow thrower must never be used if its plug, electric  
cable or other electrical equipment is damaged.  
Repairs to the electrical equipment may only be carried  
out by an authorised electrician.  
Never drive over the electric cable for the snow thrower  
while working.  
If the electric cable for the snow thrower has been dam-  
aged while working, the following instructions must be  
followed:

3 ASSEMBLY  
3.1 UNPACKING  
1. Open the packing and take out all parts.  
2. Check that all parts are supplied. The parts are as follows:  
Before leaving the machine unattended, disengage all the  
controls, put it into neutral gear, stop the engine and  
remove the ignition key.  
Never run the engine indoors except when taking it in and  
out of its place of storage. In this case ensure the door to

from the bottom to the top. Be careful when changing  
direction on a slope. Avoid steep slopes.  
Never operate the machine with insufficient protection or  
without the safety devices in place.  
Existing safety devices must not be disconnected or  
disengaged.  
Do not alter the engine’s regulator setting and do not race  
the engine. The possibility of personal injury increases  
when the engine is run at high revs.

3.2 HANDLE  
3.2.1 Lower part of the handle  
See fig. 2.  
Assemble the lower part of the handle with two knobs and  
two long screws with square fittings.  
3.2.2 Upper part of the handle  
See fig. 3.  
Assemble the cable holder (4) to the upper part of the handle.  
Assemble the upper part of the handle on the lower part of the  
handle. Fix with two long screws with square fittings and two  
knobs.  
Do not touch engine components because they are warm  
during use. Risk of burn injuries.  
3.2.3 Start control  
See fig. 4.  
2.4 MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE  
Assemble the start control (1) on the upper part of the handle.  
Secure the cable to the handle with two clamps (C).  
Tighten all nuts and screws so that the machine is in safe  
working condition. Check the shear bolts regularly.  
Always use genuine spare parts. Non-genuine spare parts  
can entail a risk of injury, even if they fit the machine.  
Never store the machine with petrol in the tank in  
buildings where the fumes can come into contact with  
open flames or sparks.  
Allow the engine to cool before putting the machine in  
store.  
Before a long storage, check the instructions for  
recommendations.  
3.2.4 Chute  
1. Assemble the ratchet with the two springs. See fig. 5.  
2. Assemble the chute in the opening and against the  
ratchet. See fig. 6.  
3. Assemble the chute attachment with four screws and four  
washers. See fig. 7.  
4. Assemble the deflector with two short screws, two  
washers and two knobs. See fig. 8.  
Replace damaged warning and instruction stickers.  
Let the engine run a couple of minutes with the auger  
connected after use. This prevents the auger from  
freezing solid.

5.5 SNOW CLEARANCE  
See fig. 1.  
Never aim the snow at bystanders.  
4 CONTROLS  
The snow thrower is fitted with the following controls and  
devices.  
Always stop the engine before unclogging.  
See fig. 9-12.  
Starting handle (1) – Starts and stops the electric motor.  
Ignition lock (2) – Facilitates activation of the starting han-  
dle.  
Always wear eye protection when operating the  
snow thrower.  
Connector (3) – For electrical connection.  
Cable support (4) – For supporting the connection cable.  
Deflector lock (5) – Locks the deflector in position.  
Direction lever (6)– Changes the direction of the discharge  
chute.  
1. Start the motor as described above and check the ejection  
distance and direction.  
2. If necessary, stop the motor and adjust the deflector (B).  
Upwards gives a longer throwing distance and down-  
wards gives a shorter throwing distance. Lock the deflec-  
tor in position using the knob (5).  
Discharge chute (A) – Ejects the snow.  
3. If necessary, stop the motor and adjust the discharge  
chute (A) with the lever (6) so that the snow is ejected in  
the desired direction.  
Deflector (B) – Determines the distance the snow is thrown.  
4. Stop working by releasing the starting handle (1).  
5. Any unclogging can easily be carried out with a piece of  
wood or similar after the engine has stopped.  
5 USING THE MACHINE  
5.1 GENERAL  
Never start the engine until all the above measures under  
‘ASSEMBLY’ have been carried out.  
The snow thrower is propelled automatically with the aid of  
the auger. To facilitate propulsion, raise the handlebar a little.  
Do not push the snow thrower.  
Never use the snow thrower without first reading  
and understanding the enclosed instructions and  
all the warning and instruction stickers on the  
snow thrower and in these instructions.  
Always wear protective goggles or a visor during  
use, maintenance and service.  
5.5.1 Dry and normal snow  
Snow up to 20 cm deep can be removed quickly and easily  
by clearing at an even speed. Plan for downwind discharge of  
the snow.  
5.5.2 Wet, packed snow  
5.2BEFORE STARTING  
The connection cable and its plugs must be fault  
free and approved for outdoor use.  
Drive slowly forward. If the wet, packed snow blocks the dis-  
charge chute, back up and jab a little way into the snow a few  
times to clear the deflector.  
The connection cable may only be connected to  
power sockets equipped with an earth leakage cir-  
cuit breaker with a trip current of max. 30 mA.  
5.6 AFTER USE  
The connection cable must be suspended on the ca-  
ble support. Otherwise there is a risk of damage  
alongside the plug which is potentially life-threat-  
ening.  
The snow thrower must never be rinsed with wa-  
ter. Risk of damage to the electrical system and  
risk of electric shocks.  
Connect the snow thrower with the electric cable from the  
property’s power socket.  
Suspend the cable on the cable support (4) and connect to the  
connector (3). See fig. 9.  
1. Stop the motor.  
2. Disconnect the electric cable from the snow thrower and  
the property’s power socket.  
3. Allow the snow thrower to cool for 30 minutes.  
4. Clean the inside and outside of the snow thrower with a  
suitable brush.  
5. Check that there are no damaged or loose parts. Repair/  
replace parts if necessary.
