Ontario, winter understood the assignment. ❄️ If you’ve looked outside today, you already know—snow has officially taken over. And if you’re using a snow blower to clear the way, safety needs to come first. Every year, injuries happen because of improper use—hands caught in moving parts, slips on icy surfaces, and even carbon monoxide exposure from running machines in enclosed spaces. A quick job can turn into a serious accident in seconds. Before you fire up your snow blower, take a moment to make sure you know how to operate it safely. Proper maintenance, correct handling, and awareness of potential hazards can make all the difference. Need a refresher? We’ve got you covered.
