Your snow thrower must be OFF
and COOL before you install your
cab.
TOOLS NEEDED:
• One tape measure
• One 10" adjustable wrench
Either (your choice)
• One 7/16" wrench or socket and one
1/2" wrench or socket or
• Another adjustable wrench
(You may find it easier to use at least
one socket wrench for leverage as the
lock nuts are designed to fit tightly)
• 13 – 15 lbs. of sand or non-clumping
cat litter
Step 1: Assemble the sand bag
Lay the empty counterweight sand bag [6]
down as shown.
Insert one end of the sand bag bracket [7]
rod into one of the small pockets by the snap
tab.
Grasp the clamp where it fits in the pocket
then pull the opposite unfilled pocket out until
you can slip it onto the other end of the rod.
(The bag will stretch to allow the rod to slip
into the pocket.)
Fasten the snap tab around the rod between
the clamps.
Fill the sand bag with a minimum of 13
pounds of dry sand or non-clumping cat litter.
Step 2: Install the sand bag
Start two 5/16" x 1-1/4" capscrews [H] into
the sand bag mounting bracket clamps [7].
Don't screw the capscrews all the way in.
Close the bag by rolling the opening rod
towards the sand bag then up and under the
sand bag mounting brackets.
Now put the sand bag counterweight and
its bracket on top of the auger housing.
The counterweight sand bag should lay
towards the BACK side of the auger housing.
Do not cover any warning labels.
Hold the ends of both the mounting bracket
rod and the closing rod and place the bag on
top of the auger housing as shown above.
Slide the bag over the top of the auger
housing until the front edge of the housing
meets the inside edge of the mounting
brackets. Tighten the bracket capscrews to
SECURELY hold the counterweight to the auger
housing.
It's a good idea to check the capscrews
for tightness before each use of machine.
