HOW TO REPLACE
THE AUGER
SHEAR
BOLT
The augers are secured to the auger
shaft with special shear bolts. These
shear bolts are designed to break and
protect the machine if an object be-
comes lodged in the auger housing.
Do
not use a harder bolt as the protection
provided by the shear bolt will be lost.

protect

vided in the assembly parts bag.

TO ADJUST
THE CARBURETOR
If you think your carburetor needs ad-
justing, contact your nearest Sears Ser-
vice Center. Engine performance
should not be affected at altitudes up to
7,000 feet. For operation at higher
elevations, contact your nearest Sears
Service Center
IMPORTANT:
Never tamper with the
engine governor, which is factory set for
proper engine speed. Over-speeding
the engine above the factory high
speed setting can be dangerous.
If you
think the engine-governed
high speed
needs adjusting, contact your nearest
Sears Service Center, which has the
proper equipment and experience to
make any necessary adjustments.
For
the location of the nearest Sears Ser-
vice Center, call Sears Service at
