4. Roll the new auger belt onto the bottom of pulley 1. Then
roll it to the sprocket 1 (Fig. 41).
5. Reinstall the sprocket cover and M6 bolt to sprocket 1
(Fig. 41).
Lubrication
Auger Shaft
At least once a season, remove the shear bolts from the
auger shafts. Spray lubricant inside the shafts and around the
spacers and the flange bearings/bushings found at either end
of the shafts.
Auger Gearcase
Gearcases are filled to the correct level at the factory. Unless
there is evidence of leakage, no additional lubricant should be
required. Check lubricant level each season or every 25 hours
of operation.
To ensure adequate lubricant level:
1.
Using the hex key, remove fill plug [1] and air exhausting
plugs [2] and [3]. Lubricant must be at least up to bottom
of lubricant filler hole with unit resting on a level surface
(Fig. 42).
2.
Inject suitable low-temperature synthetic grease if
required to filler hole [1]. Allow to drain to level of plug and
replace plug.
IMPORTANT!
Wipe each fitting clean before and after
lubrication. Do not wipe gearcase filler plug; wiping the
gearcase filler plug may remove thread sealant and cause
leaks.
Storage
1.
Examine the cordless snow blower thoroughly for worn,
loose or damaged parts. Should you need to repair or
replace a part, contact an authorized Snow Joe

dealer or call the Snow Joe

customer service center at 1-866-SNOWJOE
(1-866-766-9563) for assistance.
2. Clean the snow blower before storing or transporting.
Be sure to secure the unit while transporting.
3. Remove the key and battery packs from the cordless
snow blower before storing.
4. Store the cordless snow blower indoors
in a locked, dry
place out of the reach of children to prevent unauthorized
use or damage.
B Charger Off-Season Storage
1.
Do not expose your battery packs or charger to water,
rain or allow them to get wet. This could permanently
damage the charger and the battery packs. Do not use oil
or solvents to clean or lubricate your battery pack as the
plastic casing can become brittle and crack, causing a
serious risk of injury.
2. Store the battery packs and charger at room temperature
away from moisture. Do not store in damp locations where
corrosion of terminals may occur. As with other battery
pack types, permanent capacity loss can result if the pack
is stored for long periods of time at high temperatures
(over 120ºF/49ºC).
3. EcoSharp
®
PRO iBAT40XRP lithium-ion battery packs
maintain their charge during storage longer than other
battery pack types. As a general practice, it is best to
unplug the battery charger and remove the battery pack
when they are not in use. Recharge the battery pack every
6 months to 50% capacity (2 lights on) during off-season
storage to maintain optimal battery performance.
