8 Features, Controls, & Operation 1 ,2.. CONTR OL LOCA TIONS The information below briefly describes the function of individual controls. Starting, stopping, and driving require the combined use of several controls applied in specific sequences.
Features & Controls 9 Fuel Fuel tank filler cap (see illustration). Note: The fuel shut off valve is located under the fuel tank or on the front of the engine. Close the valve when the snowthrower is not in use. Open the valve before starting. Primer Button When pressed, the primer button provides initial fuel to help start a cold engine.
Operation 10 GENERAL OPERA TION CHECKS BEFORE EA CH ST ART -UP 1. Make sure all safety guards are in place and all nuts, bolts and clips are secure. 2. Check the engine oil level. See your engine Owner’s Manual for procedure and specifications. 3. Check to make sure spark plug wire is attached and spark plug is tightened securely.
Operation 11 ST ARTING THE ENGINE 1. Turn the fuel valve (located below the fuel tank) to the ON position. 2. Insert the Engine Key (F, Figure 1) into the Engine Key slot and push fully in to the RUN position. 3. Move the Throttle Lever (E) fully up to the FAST posi- tion.

Operation 13 DEFLECT OR The distance of the discharged snow is mainly controlled by the position of the deflector. (Engine speed also affects distance of discharge.) The more the deflector is tilted UP, the farther snow will be thrown. Models with Chute Deflector Knob See Figure 3.
Operation 14 EASY TURN™ FREEWHEELING AND TRA CTION DRIVE LOCK While Clearing Snow: For easy turning when using the snowthrower, squeeze the Easy Turn™ lever (Figure 6). Engaging the Easy Turn™ lever releases the right traction wheel but allows the left wheel to continue driving (Figure 4).
Storage 15 TEMPORAR Y ST ORA GE (30 D A YS OR LESS) Remember, the fuel tank will still contain some gasoline, so never store the unit indoors or in any other area where fuel vapor could travel to any ignition source. Fuel vapor is also toxic if inhaled, so never store the unit in any structure used for human or animal habitation.
16 Regular Maintenance A UGER GEAR CASE LUBRICA TION 1. Place the snowthrower on a level surface. 2. Remove the pipe plug (A, Figure 9). 3. Check the lubricant level. It should be level with the lower edge of the plug opening. If not, add Simplicity Winter Weight Worm Gear Oil (available from your dealer).
LUBRICA TION Remove wheels and grease axles once each year. There are two grease fittings on the auger shaft (Figure 9). Wipe the fittings clean and apply grease, using a grease gun. Also apply grease on other points indicated. Apply medium weight (10W) oil to points shown (See Figures 10-14).
18 T roubleshooting, Adjustments, Service W ARNING Before performing any adjustment or service to snowthrower, stop the engine and wait for moving parts to stop. Remove the key. To prevent accidental starting, disconnect the spark plug wire and fasten away from the plug.
T roubleshooting 19 PROBLEM POSSIBLE CA USE REMED Y Auger rotates, but snow is not thrown far enough 1. Chute Deflector too low. 1. Adjust deflector as necessary. 2. Engine speed too slow. 2. Set speed to full throttle. 3. Ground speed too fast. 3. Use slower Speed Selector setting.
