To start the Poulan Pro 96194000502, ensure the fuel valve is open, set the choke to full, and turn the ignition key. Pull the starter handle or press the electric start button if available. Once started, gradually move the choke to the off position.
Use a high-quality SAE 5W-30 oil for the engine, which is suitable for cold weather conditions and ensures optimal performance of the snow thrower.
If the snow thrower does not start, check the fuel level, ensure the spark plug is clean and properly connected, verify that the choke is set correctly, and examine the fuel line for blockages.
Check for any clogs in the discharge chute or auger. Ensure the auger and impeller are not damaged and adjust the auger drive belt tension if necessary.
Change the oil after the first five hours of use, then once every 25 hours of operation or at the start of each season, whichever comes first.
To adjust the skid shoes, loosen the mounting nuts and slide the skid shoes to the desired height. Tighten the nuts securely to ensure the shoes are firmly in place.
Check the drive belt for wear or damage and replace it if necessary. Adjust the drive cable tension according to the user manual instructions.
Drain the fuel tank, run the engine until the carburetor is dry, clean the machine thoroughly, and store it in a dry and covered location. Lubricate moving parts to prevent rust.
Turn off the engine and remove the key. Use a clearing tool or stick to remove the blockage. Never use your hands to clear a clogged chute.
Disconnect the spark plug wire, remove the old spark plug using a socket wrench, and install a new one with the correct gap setting. Reattach the spark plug wire securely.
