60V Cordless Power Shovel™

The safety-alert symbol (Figure 1) shown in this manual and on the machine identifies important safety messages that you must follow to prevent accidents.

Figure 2

Safety-alert symbol

The safety-alert symbol appears above information that alerts you to unsafe actions or situations and is followed by the word DANGER, WARNING, or CAUTION.

DANGER indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.

WARNING indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.

CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury.

This manual uses two other words to highlight information. Important calls attention to special mechanical information and Note emphasizes general information worthy of special attention.

• Start the machine and tilt it forward until the scraper blade contacts the ground. Push the machine forward at a comfortable rate of speed, yet slow enough to clear the path completely. The width and depth of the snow determines your forward speed.

• For the most efficient snow removal, throw the snow downwind, and slightly overlap each swath.

• The machine can remove snow up to 15 cm (6 inches) deep in one pass. When clearing deeper drifts, hold the machine by the upper and lower handles and use a swinging or sweeping motion. Remove a maximum of 15 cm (6 inches) with each pass and repeat as many times as required.

Remove the 4 screws securing the scraper blade and replace the scraper blade as necessary.
