HOW TO REPLACE THE SCRAPER BLADE

secure the

scraper blade

(Figure 16).

2. Install a new

scraper blade

and secure with the

fasteners removed in step 1.

Scraper Blade

HOW TO FREE THE AUGER CABLE

IMPORTANT: If the auger cable will not move when you

ENGAGE the bail, the auger cable could be frozen in-

side the conduit. DO NOT pull on the auger cable.

Instead, thaw the conduit and lubricate the auger

cable.

1. Thaw the

conduit

so the auger cable moves freely.

2. Work grease into the opening on the top of the

conduit

where the auger cable enters.
