OPERATION TRANSPORT AND HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT OF SNOW THROWER TO TRANSPORT (See Figs. 11 & 12) When transporting your snowthrower, be sure to disengage the transmission by placing freewheel control into FREEWHEEL position (See Fig. 11) and height adjustment locator into TRANSPORT MODE position (See Fig. 12). • Pull freewheel control out to FREEWHEEL position. • Set height adjustment into TRANSPORT MODE. • To reengage transmission, push control back in. To operate the height adjust mechanism, using your foot, push down on the pedal, tilt the unit to align the pins with the selected height position and slowly release foot pressure until the pins are seated in the desired height setting. OIL EXPANSION TANK FREEWHEEL CONTROL FREEWHEEL POSITION TRANSMISSION ENGAGED FIG. 11 SET HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT (See Figs. 12 & 13) Your snow thrower is equipped with a foot controlled height adjustment mechanism (See Fig. 13). There are four height positions for operation (See Fig. 12) 1. PACKED SNOW 2. NORMAL OPERATION 3. TRANSPORT 4. FLOAT PEDAL FIG. 13 IMPORTANT: Your model snow thrower is equipped with an oil expansion tank attached to the hydrostatic transmission (see Fig. 13). As you run your snow thrower, the oil level will rise in this tank as the oil heats up and recess as the oil cools. This is normal operation. You do not need to add oil to this tank as part of regular maintenance. NOTE: When you receive a new unit that has not been run, the oil level in the expansion tank may be somewhere between the bottom of the tank and near the top of the tank. After initial operation the oil level may drop because of the elimination of air bubbles in the oil line. Normal cold oil level is near the bottom of the tank. Do not add additional oil. FIG. 12 10
