OPERATING PROCEDURES
TO ENGAGE WHEEL DRIVE
With the engine running near top speed, move the shift lever into one of the six
FORWARD positions or two REVERSE positions. Select a speed appropriate
for the snow conditions that exist.
Squeeze the auger control and the augers will turn. Release it and the augers
will stop.
Squeeze the drive control and the snowthrower will move. Release it and drive
motion will stop.
NEVER move the shift lever without releasing drive control.
TO ENGAGE AUGERS
To engage the augers and start throwing snow, squeeze the auger control
against the left handle.
Release to stop the augers.
AUGER CONTROL TEST
IMPORTANT: Perform the following test before operating your snowthrower for
the first time and the start of each winter season.
Check the adjustment of the auger control as follows:
1. When the auger control (
M, fig.10 & 14
) is released and in the disengaged
“up” position, the auger control cable (
r, fig.14
) should have very slight slack. It
should NOT be tight.
2. In a well-ventilated area, start the snowthrower engine as instructed earlier in
this section.
3. While standing in the operator’s position (behind the snowthrower), engage the
auger.
4. Allow the auger to remain engaged for approximately ten (10) seconds before
releasing the auger control. Repeat this several times.
5. With the engine running and the auger control in the disengaged ”up” position,
walk to front of the machine.
6. Confirm that the auger has completely stopped rotating and shows NO sign of
motion.
IMPORTANT: 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 re-adjusting the auger control.
7. To readjust the control cable (
r, fig.14
), loosen the two hex jam nuts (
q, fig.14
)
on the auger control cable ”Z” fitting ( p, fig.14
) with a wrench.
8. Rotate the coupling end of the cable (
s, fig.14
) clockwise to provide more slack.
9. Retighten the hex jam nuts (
q, fig.14
) with a wrench.
10. Repeat Auger Control Test to verify proper adjustment has been achieved.
11. Repeat the previous steps to provide more slack in cable if necessary.
