L TRO N A CO CTHROUCKTEIONS To adjust the skid plates No adjustment is required for normal installation. 1. When the lock nut (B) is loose or the skid plate (A) is not high enough from the ground, unlock the lock nut (B) with a 13 mm open-ended wrench, to move the skid plate up or down. 2. On flat surfaces, like asphalt roads, raise the skid plates (A) 5-6 mm (0.2-0.25 in) off the ground. On uneven surfaces, like gravel roads, make the clearance between the ground and the product larger with the skid plates to get the scraper bar above the top of the gravel. Make sure that the gravel and stones do not enter into the product. It can cause personal injuries if objects are ejected at high speed. 3. Tighten the lock nut (B). To prevent freeze-up after use Note: Controls and moving parts can be blocked by ice. Do not apply much force to the controls. If you cannot operate a control or a part, start the engine and let it operate for some minutes. 1. Start the engine and let it operate for some minutes. Stop the engine and wait for all moving parts to stop. 2. Remove snow and loose ice from the product. 3. Remove snow and loose ice from the base of the chute. 4. Turn the chute deflector to the left direction and to the right direction to remove ice and water. 5. Remove the key or flip switch to the "OFF" position (if equipped). 6. If the product does not have an electric starter, pull the starter rope handle several times to remove ice and water. 7. If the product has an electric starter, connect the product to power and push the start button once to remove ice and water. To get a good result • Always run the engine at full throttle or near full throttle. • Always adapt the speed of the product to the snow situation and adjust the speed with the drive speed control lever. Make sure that the product throws snow evenly. • It is easier and more efficient to remove snow immediately after it falls. • Always throw snow downwind whenever possible. • On flat surfaces, like asphalt roads, raise the skid plates up to 5-6 mm (0.2-0.25 in) off the ground. • The scraper bar is reversible. When it becomes worn almost to the edge of the housing, reverse it. Replace the scraper bar if it is damaged, or if both sides are worn. • Do not dispatch the chute deflector if it is clogged. • If the product does not move forward due to unforeseen circumstances, release the drive 14 694 - 003 - 07.11.2019
