Auger Control Adjustment
Refer to Auger Control Test on Page 12 to adjust the auger control.
Drive Control Adjustment
WARNING: Never attempt to make any
adjustments while the engine is running,
except where specified in this operator's
manual.
When the drive control is released and in the disengaged "up" position,
the cable should have very little slack. It should NOT be tight.
Check the adjustment of the drive control as follows:
1. With the drive control released, push the snow thrower gently
forward. The unit should roll freely.
2. Engage the drive control and gently attempt to push the snow
thrower forward. The wheels should not turn. The unit should not
roll freely.
3. With the drive control released, move the shift lever back and forth
between the R2 position and the F6 position several times. There
should be no resistance in the shift lever.
4. If any of the above tests failed, the drive cable is in need of adjust-
ment. Proceed as follows:
5. Loosen the lower hex nut on the drive cable bracket. See Figure 9.
6. Position the bracket upward to provide more slack (or downward to
increase cable tension).
7. Retighten the upper hex nut.
Chute Assembly Adjustment
The distance snow is thrown can be adjusted by changing the angle of
the chute assembly. To do so:
1. Stop the engine by removing the ignition key and loosen the plastic
wing knob found on the left side of the chute assembly.
2. Pivot the chute upward or downward before retightening the wing
knob. See Figure 10.
