Auger Control Test
WARNING
: Prior to operating your snow thrower,
carefully read and follow all instructions below.
Perform all adjustments to verify your unit is
operating safely and properly.
Perform the following test before operating your snow thrower
for the first time and at the start of each winter.
Check the adjustment of the auger control as follows:
1.
When the auger control is released and in the disengaged
“up” position, the cable should have very little slack. It
should NOT be tight.
2.
In a well-ventilated area, start the snow thrower engine as
instructed in the separate engine manual.
3.
While standing in the operator’s position (behind the snow
thrower), engage the auger.
4.
Allow the auger to remain engaged for approximately ten
(10) seconds before releasing the auger control. Repeat this
several times.
5.
With the auger control in the disengaged “up” position,
walk to the front of the machine.
6.
Confirm that the auger has completely stopped rotating
and shows NO signs of motion. If the auger shows ANY
signs of rotating, immediately return to the operator’s
position and shut off the engine. Wait for ALL moving parts
to stop before re-adjusting the auger control.
7.
To readjust the control cable, loosen the upper hex screw
on the auger cable bracket. Position the bracket upward
to provide more slack (or downward to increase cable
tension). See Fig. 3-16.
8.
Position the bracket upward to provide more slack (or
downward to increase cable tension).
9.
Retighten the upper hex screw.
10. Repeat Auger Control Test to verify proper adjustment has
been achieved.
