Maintenance
AlphaBlower Assembly
1. Apply grease to all spline pins before
installation to prevent the pins from corroding.
2. Position the gearbox upside down on a jack or
similar (make sure it is well supported).
3. Return the impeller axle with the impeller and
install the flanged bearing.
4. Push the gearbox onto the spline pin on the cut
out clutch.
5. Turn the gearbox 180 degrees and install the
fixing screws and the lock washers.
6. Then lock the bolts using lock washers.
Auger Axle Installation
When the augers are turned, make sure they turn
freely and all hardware is tight.
NOTE: When the augers and are bolted onto
the gearbox output shaft, these must
be positioned at 90 degrees in relation
to each other. This is to ensure that
snow is fed into the impeller evenly.
Incorrect installation can cause serious damage to
the blower, especially to the augers and gearbox.
