Does it not have a way to control the direction of the discharged snow?

No. However, so I don't drown my neighbors in snow, I do my sidewalks at a slight angle (towards street). It will blow the snow for the most part into the street and the grass divider between sidewalk and street. It is important that on you not "spit into the wind" but spit with wind with this tool.

Only discharges snow to the front or towards the way you are pushing it. Will discharge the snow a good distance based on the amount and how heavy(wet) it is. Great for a small area like sidewalks and short driveways.

Just throws in front of you. No way to throw sideways.But I will say this is the second season of use and it does more than I expect every time. 30min manual hand shoveling done in less than 5mins with this.

No, this device just throws the snow straight forward. It does throw a it quite a ways, 20-30 feet but just forward.

In a way, there are three handles and because it's so lightweight, could easily direct the snow in any direction. I am 69 years old and use it for my deck, sidewalk and driveway. The handle on the housing is very handy.

No way to control the discharge direction. Try using it to go all one direction if you can. This is when that high school geometry that we all didn't need helps some.lol

I would suggest talking with customer support at the manufacture. I have not used mine all winter but will be using mine at least by May. I am waiting for the snow to melt.

As others have noted, it can't done. If you want it pointed in another direction you have to turn the whoe unit. All depends on whether you have the space to do that.

Seems to be holding up but I have snow up most sides of it this winter. I also placed in in the direction the wind tends not to blow.

Right hand on top handle, left hand on front handle. make sure twist cord in loop under top handle as in directions. I keep cord on left shoulder and only go in one direction (with the wind). If snow is thick, lift the snow joe and do in layers -almost like you are vacumming a rug. It's intimidating at first - you feel really stupid and that you are doing it wrong, but it works!!

blade is angled and can push snow to right or left ; you can flip blade on next pass or keep angled the same to keep pushing snow in same direction. I start in middle of driveway and can keep angle going towards outside. think of it like a snow plow pushing snow in front and off to the side also.

There is not a way to adjust; however it's pretty cold! The hot and cold settings are preset and you cannot change. The only option is to turn it off or on.

You have to keep turning the knobs on the side till the handles will go down. It really does, but you have to keep turning the knobs till it does. Then you can use two bicycle hooks to hang the blower up by the middle handle bar. WE have a big blower for big snowfalls of 24 inches or so but this small one is really handy for little corners and light snow up to 12 inchesKodo

you can adjust the direction the flow comes out so unless one direction lowers the flow, ive never seen a specific way to lower it.

I wouldn't buy this type, because you can't control the flow of the snow and ice.

It is not directional. Passing vehicles will activate the alarm provided sensor is not more than 4 feet from edge of driveway. It works great for me. Wade

Sorry, I haven't gotten that far. Still waiting for snow to leave. However, there are no openings on the sides.

I followed the directions to the letter and it worked. I had to adjust level for snow accumulation,then again when snow gone,but if I keep it at recommend. Level they sure give it their all to figure it out,but they don't. YEAH!

snow does not seem to accumulate when moving, but will not melt off when accumulating while parked

There is a button on the wall control shaped like a circle with an arrow. Press it while it is moving and it will change direction.

You just pick it up at the end of your run and flip it over to go back the other direction. This is one of the best snow removal tools I have ever used. Works really great on 2 inch snos and I'm waiting for more to see how it works.

It has a hand crank to turn the chute, and a joystick of sorts to adjust the angle the snow is discharged, i.e. higher or lower. Highly recommend using an "anti-stick" spray on the chute, impeller, and augur blades, or else it will clog again and again.
