Electrical Safety
1. Ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) protection should
be provided on the circuit(s) or outlet(s) to be used for
the snow thrower. Receptacles are available having
built-in GFCI protection and may be used for this
measure of safety.
2. To prevent electric shock, use only with an extension cord
suitable for outdoor use, such as SW-A, SOW-A, STW-A,
STOW-A, SJW-A, SJOW-A, SJTW-A, or SJTOW-A.
Before use, check that the extension cord is in good
condition. When using an extension cord, make sure to
use one heavy enough to carry the current your product
will draw. For lengths less than 50 ft (15 m), a No.14 AWG
(or greater) extension cord should be used. An undersized
cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of
power and overheating.
3. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has
a polarized plug (i.e. one blade is wider than the other).
Use this appliance only with a polarized UL-, CSA-, or
ETL-rated extension cord for outdoor, all-weather use.
The appliance plug will t into a polarized extension
cord only one way.
If the appliance plug does not t fully into the extension
cord, reverse the plug. If the plug still does not t, obtain
a correct polarized extension cord. A polarized extension
cord will require the use of a polarized wall outlet. The
extension cord plug will t into the polarized wall outlet
only one way. If the plug does not t fully into the wall
outlet, reverse the plug. If the plug still does not t,
contact a qualied electrician to install the proper wall
outlet. Do not modify the appliance plug, extension cord
receptacle, or extension cord plug in any way.
4. To prevent the appliance cord from disconnecting from
the extension cord during operation, use the on-board
cord restraint hook and/or make a knot with the two cords
as shown in Table 1.
5. Do not abuse the cord. Never pull the snow thrower
by the cord or yank the cord to disconnect it from the
receptacle. Keep the cord away from heat, oil, and sharp
edges.
Personal Safety
1. Stay alert – Watch what you are doing and use common
sense when operating the snow thrower. Do not use the
machine when tired, ill, or under the inuence of drugs,
alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention may
result in serious personal injury.
2. Wear proper clothing – Wearing rubber boots oers
additional protection from electric shock. Do not wear
loose clothing or jewelry that may become caught in the
machine. Wear protective headgear to keep hair away
from revolving parts of the machine. Safety glasses oer
better protection than everyday eyeglasses.
3. Moving parts present risks – Keep your face, hair,
clothing, hands, and feet away from moving parts. All
guards and safety attachments must be installed properly
before using the unit. Shut o and disconnect the cord
before touching any parts other than the handles and
the switch.
4. Surfaces – This snow thrower is intended for use on
paved surfaces. Do not use on gravel, stone, or other
unpaved surfaces unless the snow thrower is adjusted for
such surfaces according to the instructions given in this
operator’s manual.
5. Avoid accidental starting – Make sure the switch is in
the o position before plugging in the unit. Do not carry
the snow thrower with your nger on the switch.
m WARNING! m
Electric shock may cause SEVERE INJURY or
DEATH. Heed these warnings:
