STARTING-UP
START-UP PROCEDURES
1) Check oil level in gearbox. Adjust to required oil
level as per drawing in Parts List section. Use
SAE 80W90 oil.
2) Lubricate all points with a good quality
multipurpose grease.
3) Check chain take-up adjustment. The spring
maintaining the tension must be compressed to a
length between 3" and 3 1/4" (Fig. 18).
4) Verify for adequate tightness of all fastening
devices. Refer to torque chart on page 28.
5) Make sure of a 540 RPM input to your
snowblower.
6) Check impeller adjustment. The tip of the blades
should be approximately 1/8" to 3/16" from the
discharge wall of the drum. If necessary, adjust
impeller by using both adjustment settings (Fig. 19
& Fig. 20) simultaneously.
7) In order to avoid damaging your snowblower,
adjust the speed of descent of your 3 point hitch to
prevent striking the ground too hard.
8) Adjust the hydraulic flow in order to have a good
control of the rotation speed of the chute.
