SB7038 Snowblower

Safety Recommendations

lO.As a general rule, do not operate the snowblower in reverse. If it is absolutely necessary to back up:

a) Disengage the blade control.

b) Check the area on the ground directly behind the machine.

c) Continue to observe area down and to rear while backing up.

11 .Approach blind corners cautiously.

12.Always observe the terrain. Watch for and avoid obstacles. Stay away from holes, ditches, soft or

steep embankments and other potentially dangerous terrain.

13. Wet surfaces reduce traction and stability. Always maintain proper traction. Grip the handlebars firmly.

14.Slow down before turning.

15.Watch out for traffic when operating near or crossing roadways.

16. Never leave a running machine unattended. Always disengage the blade control lever, and remove

the ignition key before leaving the snowblower.

Children

1. Accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the presence of children. Children are often attracted

to the machine and the snowblowing activity. Never assume that children will remain where you last

saw them.

2. Never allow children to operate the machine, even under adult supervision. Local regulations may restrict

operator age. Allow only responsible adults, who are familiar with these instructions, to operate this unit.

3. Never carry children as passengers. They may fall off or be seriously injured or interfere with safe

machine operation.

4. Keep children out of the work area and under the watchful eye of another responsible adult.

5. Be alert and turn off the machine if children enter the area.

6. Before and when backing, look behind and down for small children.

7. Use extreme care when approaching blind corners, drifts, trees or other objects that may obscure

vision.

8. Keep children away while performing maintenance or adjustments.
