Resumen del manual
Repeat starting procedure. DO NOT REPRIME ENGINE BEFORE TRYING AT LEAST FIVE PULLS ON STARTER. 10. SCRAPER BLADE An adjustable scraper blade (figure 2) is provided along the bottom edge of the blower housing. During operation, this blade runs along the surface being plowed directing the snow into the rotor and insuring a clean plowed surface. After considerable usage, this blade may wear and should be adjusted. The blade is adjusted by loosening the five nuts holding it to the housing, sliding it down to the new position and retightening the nuts. The blade is also designed so that it may be reversed if one side becomes worn beyond further adjustment. 11. CHUTE The chute is designed so that it can be rotated through an angle of 240 degrees by means of the chute control crank mounted on the handle bar. By turning the handle of the control rod, the blown snow can be directed either to the right or left or straight ahead. An adjustable deflector on the chute can be moved up or down to control the height and distance the snow will be blown. 4 OPERATING TIPS 1. PRE-OPERATION PRECAUTIONS a. Before the first snowfall, be sure the area on which the Sno-Thro is to be operated is free of sticks, stones, toys, or other obstructions which might be picked up by the machine during operation. - WARNING - Do not allow children to run through the snow being discharged from the machine. Small objects picked up by the machine may be thrown out of the chute with considerable force and can cause serious injury. b. Always allow the engine to warm up to operating temperature before operating the machine in snow. c. Operate the machine in a cleared area before operating in snow for the first time. Become familiar with all controls before attempting to plow. 2. CHUTE ADJUSTMENT a. The distance the Ariens Sno-Thro will throw the snow will depend on the type of snow being plowed. In general, the position of the deflector will determine the distance the snow will be thrown. Tipping the deflector down will decrease the throw and tipping the deflector up will increase the throw. b. The distance the snow is blown can also be controlled to some extent by the engine speed. Slowing down the engine by means of the throttle control will decrease the throw and increasing speed will increase the throw. By a combination of engine speed and deflector adjustment, the snow can be blown a distance suitable for nearly every situation. - NOTE - When operating the Sno-Thro in wet snow, occasionally a sufficient amount of snow may stick inside the chute causing partial clogging. To prevent this, it is suggested that the inside of the chute be coated with a light layer of "paste" or "spray" wax. It is recommended that the inside of the chute be waxed two or three times each season. 3. DEPTH ADJUSTMENT How clean the Sno-Thro will plow is determined by the adjustment of the runners. See paragraph 7 of Operating Instructions. When plowing on concrete or other hard surfaces, these runners should be adjusted so that they are approximately 1/8-inch below the scraper blade. When plowing gravel driveways or other gravel areas, adjust the runners so that they are 1-1/4-inch below the scaper blade. 4. PLOWING a. When plowing reasonable depths of ordinary snow, it is only necessary to guide the machine along the path to be plowed and to adjust the chute to blow the snow with the wind. When making the second pass on a sidewalk or driveway, allow the machine to overlap the previous path slightly to insure complete removal of snow. b. When plowing through a very heavy drift, such as one formed by the passing of the street plow, it may be necessary to "inch" into the drift when making the first pass. To do so, allow the machine to enter the drift and then declutch. Allow the machine to blow away the accumulation of snow and then move the machine forward deeper into the drift by releasing the clutch handle. Again declutch and allow the machine to clear away the snow. Continue this process until a complete path has been cleared through the drift. On the second pass through the drift, allow the path of the machine to overlap the first path. 5. SHEAR BOLT REPLACEMENT Occasionally a small object may enter the rotor and become jammed in the blades. When this occurs the shear bolts, located on the shaft on which the rotor is mounted, will break and allow the rotor to turn freely on the shaft. Before plowing can be continued, this shear bolt must be replaced. See figure 2. USE ONLY ARIENS SHEAR BOLTS. USE OF OTHER TYPES OF BOLTS MAY RESULT IN SEVERE DAMAGE TO MACHINE. - WARNING - If it becomes necessary to replace the shear bolts or necessary to remove any obstruction from either the rotor, blower, or chute, STOP THE ENGINE. NOTE- Each time a shear bolt is replaced, the rakes must be oiled and turned on the shaft by hand several times to insure that they will not bind. Part No. Description No. Req'd.
