Place the snowblower on a level
surface. (For track-type
snowblowers, step on the foot
pedal, and set the auger in the
middle position.)
Loosen the skid shoe nuts, and
adjust the skid shoes to obtain the
auger ground clearance for snow
conditions recommended below.
Adjust the right and left skid
shoes equally. Retighten the nuts
securely.

Operation on rough or uneven
surfaces with less than the
recommended auger ground
clearance can damage the
snowblower.

Loosen all the nuts holding the
scraper, and adjust the scraper to
the specified ground clearance.
Retighten the nuts securely.

Inspect the scraper. Replace the scraper if it is excessively worn.
