where property damage can occur. Keep children

dryers. Allow the engine to cool before storing in any
enclosure.
11. Do not overload the machine capacity by attempting
to clear snow at too fast a rate.
12. Never operate the machine at high transport speeds
on slippery surfaces. Look behind and use care when

thrower is transported or not in use.
