Snow Blower Safety

5. Avoid Auger/Impeller Contact!

Always assume the auger/impeller is turning when the engine is running.

NEVER place your hands or feet near any moving part of the snow blower. Keep ever mindful that hands and feet can be severely crushed and even amputated by rotating augers and impellers.

If the unit becomes clogged, release the auger/impeller and traction controls and wait for the auger/impeller to stop. Then stop the engine and disconnect the spark plug wire from the spark plug before attempting to unclog. Then use a stick or broom handle to clear chute after stopping the engine.

REMEMBER: There is little clearance between the outer ends of the auger/impeller and the inside surface of the housing. An injury can result if the operator of a snow blower puts his or her hand in the path of a turning auger/impeller when attempting to clear the plugged area, without turning off the engine.

To depend entirely on the mechanical or electrical safety devices is not good enough. Use Caution and Common Sense as well.

REMEMBER: Never clear the chute with the engine running. Turn off the engine and be sure the auger/impeller has stopped before making any adjustments or corrections. Use a stick to clear a plugged discharge area.

Never use your Hand!
