Auger Belt Replacement

To remove and replace your snow thrower’s auger belt, 
proceed as follows:

1.

Remove the plastic belt cover on the front of the 
engine by removing the two self-tapping screws. 

Drain the gasoline from the snow thrower, or place 
a piece of plastic under the gas cap.

Carefully pivot the snow thrower up and forward so 
that it rests on the auger housing. 

2.

Remove the frame cover from the underside of the 
snow thrower by removing four self-tapping screws 
which secure it.

3.

Roll the auger belt off the engine pulley.

4.

Unhook the support bracket spring from the frame.

Loosen and remove the shoulder screw which acts 
as a belt keeper.

Remove the belt from around the auger pulley, and 
slip the belt between the support bracket and the 
auger pulley

Reassemble auger belt by following instructions in 
reverse order.

IMPORTANT:

 Do NOT forget to reinstall the shoulder 

screw and reconnect the spring to the frame after 
installing a replacement auger belt.
