NOTICE: Do not bend or kink the control cables.
The cables should be routed under the handle
assembly and not wrapped around the handle or
knobs. The cables must move freely and not bind.
3. Secure the speed control cables to the handle
with provided clips.
Note: Do not secure the auger or drive control
cables with the clips.
Wheel Installation
1. Raise and support the rear of the snow
thrower to allow the installation of the wheels.
2. Slide the wheels onto the axle (one on each
side) and align the hole on the wheel hub with
the hole in the axle.
3. Install a retaining pin through each wheel to
secure. Insert the pin then pivot the ring over
the axel hub.
Skid Shoe Installation and
Adjustment
1. Locate the pair of skid shoes from parts bag
and remove the bolts.
2. Loosely install the skid shoes using the bolts,
washers and hex nuts as shown on each side
of the auger housing.
Adjustment of the skid shoes sets the height
above the ground at which the auger shave plate
operates. For clearing snow from concrete,
asphalt, and other smooth surfaces, set the
auger shave plate so that the bottom of the plate
just scrapes the ground. For clearing snow from
gravel, dirt, and other rough surfaces set the
auger shave plate slightly above the ground to
avoid dirt and gravel from entering the auger. The
optimal height of the plate will vary depending on
the type of surface being cleared. Surfaces with
larger gravel or stones require a higher shave
plate setting.
3. Move the Snow Thrower to a solid, smooth,
and level surface.
