IMPORTANT:
During initial operation there is wear be-
tween the auger blades and the scraper bar. This wear is
normal and to be expected. Maximum performance, both
snow throwing and driving, occurs when there is zero
clearance between these two parts. In order to account
for part variation a small interference is designed into the
parts so they can wear to zero clearance within the first
few minutes of operation (Figure 16).
During initial break-in period of the auger blades it
is normal for the auger blades to build up excessive
heat if not operated in the snow.
Do not operate without snow or water for lubricating
the auger blades. This will cause excessive heat
build up in the auger blades which could cause
damage to the auger blades and scrapper bar.
