Gear Shaft
•
Lubricate the gear shaft with 6-in-1 grease (part
number 737-0170)
at least once a season, or after
every 25 hours of operation.
IMPORTANT:
Keep all grease and oil off the rubber
friction wheel and drive plate.
Gear Case
The gear case is lubricated
with grease at the factory
and does not require further lubrication
regularly.
•
However, if disassembled
for any reason, lubricate
with 2 ounces of Shell AIvania
TM
grease EPR00,
part number 737-0168.
Before reassembling,
remove old sealant and apply new sealant.
IMPORTANT: Do not overfill the gear case, since
damage to the seals could result. Be sure the vent plug
is free of grease in order to relieve pressure.
Check V-Belts
Follow instrcutions below to check the condition of the
drive belts every 50 hours of operation.
•
Remove the plastic belt cover on the front of the
engine by removing two self-tapping
screws.
•
Visually inspect for frayed, cracked, or excessively
worn out belts.
Check Friction Wheel
Follow the instructions below to check the condition of
the friction wheel rubber every 25 hours of operation.
•
Remove the six self-tapping
screws from the frame
cover underneath
the snow thrower.
•
Visually inspect the friction wheel rubber for
excessive
wear, cracks, or loose fit on the friction
wheel drive hub.
•
Also engage the traction control and check if the
friction wheel is making contact with friction plate. If
it does not make contact, adjust the traction drive
cable and recheck the friction wheel.
•
Replace friction wheel rubber if necessary.
Refer to
instructions on page 23.
•
After maintenance
on friction wheel is over, re-
attach the frame cover to the snow thrower with the
hardware
removed earlier.

NOTE: Although multi-viscosity oils (5W30, 10W30
etc.) improve starting in cold weather, these multi-
viscosity oils will result in increased oil consumption
when used above 32°F. Check your snow thrower's
engine oil level more frequently to avoid possible
engine damage from running low on oil.
