Maintenance

Lifetime Lubrication (Motor and Auger)

Lubrication is not necessary and may damage the unit. The 

snow thrower is lubricated for lifetime use at the factory before 

shipment.

General Maintenance Tips

1.  Do not attempt to repair the machine unless you have the 

proper tools and instructions for disassembly and repair of 

the machine.

2.  Check bolts and screws at frequent intervals for proper 

tightness to ensure that the equipment is in safe working 

condition.

3.  After each snow removal session, run the snow thrower 

for a few minutes to prevent the collector/impeller from 

freezing. Shut off the motor, wait for all revolving parts to 

stop completely,

 and wipe residual ice and snow off the 

unit. Rotate the chute crank several times to remove any 

excess snow.

4.  Only use a cloth soaked with hot water and a soft brush to 

clean the snow thrower; never wet or spray water on the 

machine!

5.  Do not use detergent or solvents as these could cause 

irreparable damage to the snow thrower. Chemicals can 

destroy the plastic parts. 

6.  To protect the snow thrower from corrosion when storing 

for long periods, lightly oil the metal parts. 

7.  Store the appliance in a dry area out of reach of children.
8.  For the user's safety, worn or damaged parts must be 

replaced. Replace with original replacement parts only. 

Parts from another snow thrower may not fit properly, 

causing an unsafe situation. 

Replacing the Plastic Auger

NOTE: When replacing worn plastic plates, pay close attention 

to any different types of bolts and nuts and where they are 

positioned. This will ensure that the new plastic plates are 

installed properly and securely.

1.  Open the two side covers by removing the 5 screws on 

each side (Figs. 30 – 31).

2.  Remove the belt from the drive wheel on the left side  

(Fig. 32).
