  • If the snow blower jams, turn it off before tampering with it.
  • Keep your hands away from the moving parts at all times.
  • Do not drink alcohol while using the snow blower.
  • Be award of the carbon monoxide risk of running a snow blower in an enclosed space.
  • Refuel your snow blower when it is off, never when it is running.
  • Pushing a heavy snow blower can cause injury. Take it slow and take breaks as needed.
