Before operating, ensure batteries are fully charged and securely installed. Clear the area of any objects that could interfere with operation.

1. Starting the Unit:
   • Press and hold the safety button located on the handle.
   • While holding the safety button, squeeze the trigger handle to start the snow blower. Release the safety button once the unit is running.
2. Stopping the Unit: Release the trigger handle to stop the snow blower. The dual safety mechanism ensures immediate shutdown.
3. Adjusting Snow Discharge: Use the 180-degree directional chute control to adjust the direction of snow discharge. This allows you to direct snow away from cleared areas or obstacles.

   • The dual LED lights provide illumination for operation in low-light conditions.
