Track Lock Lever
The track lock lever is located on the right side
of the snow thrower and is used to select the
position of the auger housing and the method
of track operation. Move the lever to the right,
then forward or backward to one of the three
positions.
Transport
Raises the front end of the snow thrower for
easy transport. Using proper caution, this
position may also be used on many gravel
driveways to clear snow while leaving gravel
undisturbed.
Normal Snow
Allows the tracks to be suspended
independently for continuous ground contact.
Packed Snow
Locks the front end of the snow thrower down
to the ground for hard-packed or icy snow
conditions.
