WARNING

Fire and explosion hazard

Gasoline is highly flammable and its vapors are explosive.

Fumes may travel to a distant ignition source and an explo-

sion and/or fire may result.

Handle gasoline carefully. Never store the unit, with fuel in

the tank, indoors or in a poorly ventilated enclosure where

fuel fumes could reach an open flame, spark, pilot light,

such as a furnace, water heater, or clothes dryer.

Storage

Equipment

• Thoroughly clean the unit.

• Lubricate the hex shaft (see Maintenance section).

• Make sure all nuts, bolts, and screws are securely fas-

tened. Inspect all visible moving parts for damage, break-

age, and wear. Replace if necessary.

snowthrower auger and impeller.

• If possible, store the unit indoors and cover it to give pro-

tection from dust and dirt.

• If the machine must be stored outdoors, cover it with a

heavy tarpaulin.

Fuel System

Fuel can become stale when stored over 30 days. Stale fuel

causes acid and gum deposits to form in the fuel system or

on essential carburetor parts. To keep fuel fresh, use Briggs

& Stratton® Advanced Formula Fuel Treatment & Stabi-

lizer, available wherever Briggs & Stratton genuine service

parts are sold.

There is no need to drain gasoline from the engine if a fuel

stabilizer is added according to instructions. Run the en-

gine for 2 minutes to circulate the stabilizer throughout the

fuel system before storage. If gasoline in the engine has not

been treated with a fuel stabilizer, it must be drained into an

approved container. Run the engine until it stops from lack

of fuel. The use of a fuel stabilizer in the storage container is

recommended to maintain freshness.

Engine Oil

While the engine is still warm, change the engine oil. See

Changing the Oil in the engine operator’s manual.

Before starting the unit after it has been stored:

• Check all uid levels. Check all maintenance items.

Power Ratings

The gross power rating for individual gasoline engine models is labeled in accordance with SAE (Society of Automotive En-

gineers) code J1940 Small Engine Power & Torque Rating Procedure, and is rated in accordance with SAE J1995. Torque

values are derived at 2600 RPM for those engines with “rpm” called out on the label and 3060 RPM for all others; horse-

power values are derived at 3600 RPM. The gross power curves can be viewed at www.BRIGGSandSTRATTON.COM.

Net power values are taken with exhaust and air cleaner installed whereas gross power values are collected without these

attachments. Actual gross engine power will be higher than net engine power and is aected by, among other things, ambi-

ent operating conditions and engine-to-engine variability. Given the wide array of products on which engines are placed, the

gasoline engine may not develop the rated gross power when used in a given piece of power equipment. This dierence

is due to a variety of factors including, but not limited to, the variety of engine components (air cleaner, exhaust, charging,

cooling, carburetor, fuel pump, etc.), application limitations, ambient operating conditions (temperature, humidity, altitude),

and engine-to-engine variability. Due to manufacturing and capacity limitations, Briggs & Stratton may substitute an engine

of higher rated power for this engine.

Sikkerhedssymbolet anvendes til at vise sikkerhedsop-

lysninger om farer, der kan medføre personskade. Et signal-

ord (FARE, ADVARSEL eller FORSIGTIG) bliver brugt sam-

men med alarmsymbolet for at illustrere sandsynligheden og

den mulige grad af skade. Desuden kan et faresymbol bruges

til at illustrere faretypen.

FARE indikerer en fare, som, hvis den ikke undgås, vil for-

årsage dødsfald eller alvorlig personskade.

ADVARSEL indikerer en fare, som, hvis den ikke undgås,

kan forårsage dødsfald eller alvorlig personskade.

FARE

Hold hænder, fødder og tøj væk fra de roterende dele.

Roterende dele kan komme i kontakt med eller gribe hæn-

der, fødder, hår, beklædning og smykker.

Manglende overholdelse af disse sikkerhedsforanstaltnin-

ger vil resultere i amputation af lemmer eller anden alvorlig

personskade.

• Når du rengører, reparerer eller inspicerer snekaste-

ren, bedes du sørge for at motoren er slukket, tændrø-

ret er afbrudt samt at alle bevægelige dele er standse-

de.

• Hold ikke dine hænder eller fødder nær ved eller under

de roterende dele. Hold dig væk fra udkaståbningen.

• Brug aldrig snekasteren hvis ikke de korrekte

afskærmninger eller andre sikkerhedsanordninger er

på plads og er fuldt funktionsdygtige.

• Forlad aldrig snekasteren uden opsyn så længe moto-

ren kører. Deaktiver altid sneglen og trækkontrol, stop

motoren og fjern nøgler.

• Hold alle løse beklædningsdele langt væk fra fronten

på snekasteren samt sneglen. Tørklæder, vanter, løse

snore, løst tøj og benklæder kan hurtigt blive fanget af

det roterende skovlhjul og kan forårsage lemlæstelse.

Bind langt hår op og fjern smykker.

• Du bør lade maskinen køre nogle få minutter efter

snekastning for at forebygge, at samleren/skovlhjulet

fryser til.

• Du skal koble samleren/skovlhjulet fra, når snekaste-

ren bliver transporteret eller ikke er i brug.

FARE

Inde i sneudkastet er der et roterende skovlhjul, som

kaster sne. Rens eller fjern aldrig tilstopninger fra sneud-

kastet med dine hænder. Du kan nemt få fingre i klemme i

skovlhjulet. Anvend altid et rengøringsredskab.

Manglende overholdelse af disse sikkerhedsforanstaltnin-

ger vil resultere i amputation af lemmer eller anden alvorlig

personskade.

ADVARSEL

FARE

• Berøring med det roterende skovlhjul inde i sneudka-

stet er den hyppigste årsag til personskader i forbin-

delse med snekastere.

• Denne snekaster kan amputere hænder og fødder

samt slynge genstande afsted. Læs og overhold hele

sikkerhedsvejledningen i denne manual. Hvis den ikke

overholdes, kan det resultere i dødsfald eller alvorlig
