Resumen del manual
It is operated through the tractor P.T.O. Start tractor engine and run at full throttle. Engage the P.T.O. lever (Right hand side of tractor). To stop snow thrower operation, pull the P.T.O. handle towards you. PREPARATION 1. Check the tractor and thrower to make certain /«—v both are in good operating condition. Fill gas tank out of doors and avoid spilling gasoline. Do not fill tank while engine is running. Wipe up any spilled gas. 3. Do not remove any guards or covers while operating tractor and thrower. TO RAISE AND LOWER SNOW THROWER The hydraulic lift lever or the tractor is used to raise and lower the snow thrower. It is located on the right hand side of the tractor console. To raise snow thrower, pull back on lever until desired height is attained. Full up position gives approximately 4" clearance. To lower snow thrower, push lever forward until thrower touches ground. Snow thrower height can be changed by using the height adjustment on left side of tractor and/or adjusting the skid shoes. DISCHARGE CHUTE CONTROL CRANK The discharge chute control crank is located on the left hand side of the snow thrower. The chute crank controls the direction in which snow is thrown. The discharge radius is 180° degrees. Turn crank to the right to direct snow to the right hand side. Turn to the left to direct snow to left hand side. OPERATING SPEED The spiral speed is directly related to engine speed. For maximum snow removal and discharge, maintain high engine R.P.M. (full throttle). The tractor's forward speed is controlled by selecting one of the forward speeds. It is advisable to operate the tractor at a slow ground speed (1st gear) for safe and efficient snow removal. SNOW CONDITIONS Snow removal conditions vary greatly from light fluffTy snow fall to wet heavy snow. Therefore, operating instructions must be flexible to fit conditions encountered. The operator must adapt the tractor and snow thrower to depth of snow, wind direction, temperature, and surface conditions. 13 DEEP OR DRIFTED SNOW In deep, drifted, or banked snow, it will be necessary to use full throttle and first speed. Drive the spiral into the snow, disengage clutch and allow spiral to clear the snow. Repeat this method until a path is cleared. On the second pass, overlap the first enough to allow the spiral to handle the snow without repeated clutching and declutching of the tractor. In extremely deep snow, raise thrower from the ground, drive tractor ahead in the deep snow to remove top layers first. Do not drive tractor into snow bank where snow has not been removed to ground level. Disengage tractor clutch and allow thrower to clear the snow. Reverse tractor and lower thrower to the ground. Drive tractor ahead and repeat process to remove balance of snow. Working with repeated passes into and out of drifts will eventually move even the deepest of snow piles. A CAUTION If snow thrower becomes plugged with snow, or jammed due to hitting a foreign object, disengage snow thrower immediately and stop tractor engine. Clear snow from chute if plugged, before resuming operation. NOTE If spiral is jammed or bent from hitting a foreign object, stop tractor engine. Remove spark plug wire from spark plug and then remove foreign object from spiral. If spiral damage is noted, repair prior to continuing operation. Then replace spark plug wire and resume operation. OPERATING TIPS 1. Whenever possible discharge snow down wind. 2. Do not attempt to remove ice or hard packed frozen snow. 3. Always overlap each pass slightly to assure complete snow removal. 4. A frozen or stuck spiral or chute must be broken loose or thawed with care. When attempting to loosen frozen or jammed spiral, shut off tractor engine and remove spark plug wire. Never attempt to clear snow thrower at any time with tractor engine running. NOTE When snow thrower and tractor are not in use, lower snow thrower to the ground. This will prevent excess weight on front tires. USE OF TIRE CHAINS Tire chains should always be used when extra traction is needed. They add manueverability in handling snow removal jobs. ADJUSTMENTS C”3D Stop tractor engine and disconnect spark plug wire before making any adjustments, repairs or maintenance on the snow thrower. UPPER CHUTE DEFLECTOR The upper chute deflector mounted on the chute determines the distance snow is thrown. Moving top of deflector down decreases distance of throw and raising deflector increases distance of throw. Operator must get off tractor to make this adjustment. Disengage spirals (by disengaging the P.T.O. lever, located on the right hand side of tractor) before making this adjustment. To adjust, loosen hand knob on the side of chute deflector and pivot to desired position. Retighten hand knob. See figure 27. CHUTE DEFLECTOR HAND KNOB FIGURE 27 SKID SHOE ADJUSTMENT The skid shoes are mounted on each side of spiral housing. These regulate the distance the shave plate is raised above the plowing ...
