Assembly
-
Assemble the frames
Secure the middle frame to the lower frame with the first set of knobs and bolts on each side. Then secure the upper frame to the middle frame with the second set of knobs and bolts.
-
Set the chute deflector
Loosen the chute deflector knob, raise or lower the deflector to the desired snow stream height, then tighten the knob.
-
Attach the chute clean-out tool
Attach the two included clean-out tool clips to the middle frame, then snap the clean-out tool onto the clips.
-
Install the lower chute crank
Remove the hitch pin from the female end of the lower chute crank. Insert the lower crank rod into the opening at the back of the housing, align the holes, and secure it with the hitch pin.
-
Install the upper chute crank
Slide the upper chute crank through the rubber ring on the middle frame, connect it to the lower chute crank, align the holes, and secure it with the hitch pin.
-
Secure the cable
Place the cable clips over the cable and snap them onto the middle frame to secure the cable to the machine.
Getting Started
-
Charge both batteries first
Insert the charger plug into a wall outlet. The top light turns green when powered on. Insert both batteries into the charger. The bottom red light indicates charging; the top green light with the red light off indicates fully charged. A fully discharged battery pack charges in about 2 hours in the normal temperature range.
-
Check battery charge level
Press the charge-level button on each battery. Three lights indicate high charge; one light means the battery should be charged immediately.
-
Inspect the clearing area
Remove stones, toys, broken glass, nails, wire, string, and other objects that could be picked up and thrown by the auger.
-
Install both batteries
Open the battery compartment covers and slide each battery down until it clicks and locks into position.
-
Start the snow blower
Press and hold the safety switch button, then pull the ON/OFF trigger toward you. Once the machine starts, release the safety switch button.
-
Clear at a steady pace
Push gently and evenly according to the unit’s throw rate. Do not force the machine or push too quickly.
-
Adjust snow direction and height
Rotate the chute crank to adjust the discharge chute up to 180°. Loosen the deflector knob to raise or lower the snow stream, then tighten the knob.
-
Stop the unit
Release the ON/OFF trigger. Wait for all moving parts to stop before cleaning, inspecting, or storing the unit.
Maintenance & Care
Run briefly after snow clearing
After each snow removal session, run the snow blower for a few minutes to help prevent the collector/impeller and auger from freezing.
Remove residual snow and ice
Shut off the motor, wait for all revolving parts to stop, remove the batteries, then wipe residual snow and ice from the unit.
Rotate the chute after use
Rotate the chute deflector by the chute control crank several times to remove excess snow buildup.
Check hardware often
Inspect bolts and screws at frequent intervals and tighten as needed to keep the equipment in safe working condition.
Care for batteries and charger
Do not immerse batteries or charger in liquid. Clean charger vents and electrical contacts with compressed air. Use only mild soap on a damp cloth when cleaning plastic surfaces.
Store indoors
Remove both batteries and store the snow blower indoors in a locked, dry place out of reach of children.
Recharge during off-season storage
Recharge the battery packs every 6 months to about 50% capacity, shown as 2 lights on the battery indicator, to maintain battery performance.
No lubrication needed
Lubrication is not necessary and may damage the unit. The motor and auger are lubricated for lifetime use at the factory.
