Auger Belt Replacement
To remove and replace your snow thrower's auger belt, proceed as
follows:
1. Remove the plastic belt cover on the front of the engine by remov-
ing the two self-tapping screws.
NOTE: Drain the gasoline from the snow thrower, or place a piece of
plastic under the gas cap.
2. Carefully pivot the snow thrower up and forward so that it rests on
the auger housing. Remove the frame cover from the underside
of the snow thrower by removing four self-tapping screws which
secure it.
3. Roll the auger belt off the engine pulley.
4. a. Loosen and remove the shoulder screw which acts as a belt
keeper.
b. Unhook the support bracket spring from the frame.
5. Remove the belt from around the auger pulley, and slip the belt
between the support bracket and the auger pulley. Reassemble
auger belt by following instructions in reverse order.
NOTE: Do NOT forget to reinstall the shoulder screw and reconnect
the spring to the frame after installing a replacement auger belt.
