Adjustments
Skid Shoes
The snow thrower skid shoes are adjusted at the factory to be approx 1/8" below
the bottom surface of the shave plate. Adjust them downward, if desired, prior to
operating the snow thrower.
It is not recommended that you operate this snow thrower on gravel as
it can easily pick up and throw loose gravel, causing personal injury or
damage to the snow thrower and surrounding property.
•
For close snow removal on a smooth surface, raise skid shoes higher on the
auger housing. Refer to Figure 17.
•
Use a middle or lower position when the area to be cleared is uneven, such as
a gravel driveway.
NOTE: If you choose to operate the snow thrower on a gravel surface, keep
the skid shoes in position for maximum clearance between the ground and
the shave plate.
To adjust the skid shoes:
1.
Loosen the four hex nuts (two on each side), flat washers, and carriage bolts.
Move skid shoes to desired position. See Figure 17.
2.
Make certain the entire bottom surface of skid shoe is against the ground to
avoid uneven wear on the skid shoes.
3.
Retighten nuts, washers, and bolts securely.
Auger Control
Prior to operating your snow thrower, carefully read and follow all
instructions below. Perform all adjustments to verify your snow thrower is
operating safely and properly.
Check the adjustment of the auger control as follows:
1.
The auger control is located on the left handle. See Figure 18 inset. When
the auger control is released and in the disengaged "UP" position, the cable
should have very little slack. It should NOT be tight.
2.
In a well-ventilated area, start the snow thrower engine. Refer to Starting
the Engine in the Operation section.
3.
While standing in the operator's position (behind the snow thrower), engage
the auger.
4.
Allow the auger to remain engaged for approximately ten seconds before
releasing the auger control. Repeat this several times.
5.
With the auger control in the disengaged "UP" position, walk to the front of
the machine.
6.
Confirm that the auger has completely stopped rotating and shows NO signs
of motion. If the auger shows ANY signs of rotating, immediately return to
the operator's position and shut OFF the engine. Wait for ALL moving parts
to stop before adjusting the auger control.
CAUTION
WARNING
ASSEMBLY
7.
To readjust the control cable, loosen the upper hex bolt on the auger cable
bracket. See Figure 18.
8.
Position the bracket upward to provide more slack (or downward to increase
cable tension).
9.
Retighten the upper hex bolt.
10.
Repeat Step 2 through Step 6 to verify proper adjustment has been achieved.
