Clean-Out Tool
The clean-out tool is mounted to the rear of the auger housing and is
designed to clear a clogged chute. See Figure 8. Refer to page 11 for
instructions on how to properly use it.
NOTE: This item is fastened with a cable tie to the rear of the auger
housing at the factory. Cut the cable tie before operating the snow
thrower.
WARNING: Never use your hands to clean snow and
ice from the chute assembly or auger housing.
Skid Shoes
Position the skid shoes based on surface conditions. Adjust upward
for hard-packed snow. Adjust downward when operating on gravel or
crushed rock surfaces. See “Making Adjustment” Section.
Tire Pressure (Pneumatic Tires)
The tires are over-inflated for shipping purposes. Check the tire
pressure before operating the snow thrower. Refer to the tire side wall
for tire manufacturer’s recommended psi and deflate (or inflate) the
tires as necessary.
IMPORTANT: If the tire pressure is not equal in both tires, the unit may
not travel in a straight path and the shave plate may wear unevenly.
Final Adjustments
Make these final adjustments before operating your snow thrower for
the first time. Failure to follow these instructions may cause damage to
the snow thrower.
Wheel Drive Control & Shift Lever
Perform the following test to determine need for adjustment:
• Move the shift lever into sixth (6) position. See Figure 9.
• With the drive control released (see Figure 9), push the snow
thrower forward, then pull it back. The machine should move freely.
• Engage the drive control and attempt to move the machine both
forward and back, resistance should be felt.
• Move the shift lever into the fast reverse (R2) position and repeat
the previous two steps.
