BELT ADJUSTMENT
Traction Drive Belt
The traction drive belt has constant spring pressure and does not require
an adjustment. If the traction drive belt is slipping, replace the belt. See au-
thorized dealer.
Auger Drive Belt
If your snowthrower will not discharge snow, check the control cable adjust-
ment. If it is correct, then check the condition of the auger drive belt. If it is
damaged or loose, replace it (see authorized dealer).
Auger Drive Belt Adjustment:
1. Disconnect spark plug wire.
2. Remove screw (A

3. Loosen nut on idler drive pulley (A
A, Figure 37) and move idler drive
pulley towards belt about 1/8 inch (3 mm).
WARNING: Do not over-tighten, as this may lift the
lever and cause the auger drive to be engaged without
depressing the auger control.

sion on belt which is opposite idler pulley (B

have to move idler pulley more than once to obtain the correct ten-
sion.
