Craftsman Snow Blower 536.885202

The Craftsman Gas Snow Thrower 536.885202, manufactured by Western Tool & Stamping for Sears under the Craftsman Brand, is a device designed to remove snow from areas such as driveways and sidewalks. The machine operates on unleaded gasoline and utilizes a series of controls to operate and adjust its functions. These controls include an auger drive lever, a crank assembly, a chute deflector, a discharge chute, an ignition lever, a recoil starter handle, a choke control, and a primer button.

The auger drive lever starts and stops the auger, while the crank assembly changes the direction of snow throwing through the discharge chute. The chute deflector alters the distance the snow is thrown, and the discharge chute changes the direction the snow is thrown. The ignition lever must be moved to the on position to start the engine, and the recoil starter handle starts the engine manually. The choke control is used to start a cold engine, and the primer button injects fuel directly into the carburetor manifold for fast starts in cold weather. The machine requires regular maintenance and checks, which include ensuring the engine oil is at the proper level, the gas tank is filled properly with clean, fresh, unleaded gasoline, and routine checks on the functionality of all controls.
