3.3.2.  ADD LUBRICATION TO CHAIN CASE: To 
add grease, remove the filler plug located just 
forward of the pulley shaft on the right hand side. 
See Figure 10. Add Snapper Part No. 2-9577 
Benalene 900 grease (4 oz. Bottle) as needed to 
bring level up to bottom edge of the check plug 
opening. The total capacity of the case is about 48 
ounces. DO NOT exceed this amount. Reinstall 
check plugs after checking. NOTE: Also available 
Snapper Part No. 2-9296 Benalene 900 grease (32 
oz. Bottle).

3.4 TILLER 

TINES 

Your Snapper Tiller has right hand and left hand tines. 
Replace both tines if blades become bent or are badly 
worn or otherwise damaged. Use correct Snapper 
replacement tines. The tines are secured to the tine shaft 
with a shear bolt, Part No. 2-8725 and Lock Nut Part No. 
9-0222 on each side. NOTE: Two extra nuts and two 
bolts come with tiller. Keep spares on hand in case a bolt 
shears off or becomes lost while tilling. See Figure 11. 
DO NOT over tighten these shear bolts as this will cause 
premature failure. (Recommended torque is 5 to 8 foot 
pounds maximum). NOTE: Failure to use the correct 
shear bolts could result in serious damage to your Tiller. 
Use only the genuine Snapper replacement bolts and 
lock nuts specified above. These bolts are designed to 
shear at a specific stress to prevent damage. DO NOT 
use substitutes!

BELT ADJUSTMENT - REPLACEMENT 

BELT TENSION ADJUSTMENT: Remove the cotter pin 
that secures clevis pin to left wheel hub. Remove clevis pin 
from left wheel hub and slide wheel out on axle about 1”. 
Remove belt guard. Measure the length idler pulley spring 
at the end of the control cable in a relaxed position. Then 
move wheel and tine control bail up to the handle bar and 
measure the extended length of the spring. When properly 
adjusted, the spring will extend 1/4” to 1/2”. See Figure 12. 
To adjust, loosen and reposition the two jam nuts on the 
threaded end of cable located on the dash panel. Move 
jam nuts toward the end of threaded end of cable for more 
tension. Move jam nuts in a direction away from the end of 
threaded end of cable for less tension. See Figure 13. After 
adjustment, retighten both jam nuts against dash panel. 
Reinstall belt guard. Slide wheel back into operating 
position and reinstall clevis pin and secure with hair pin.
