CHECKLIST
Before you operate your snow thrower, please review the
following checklist to help ensure that you will obtain
the best performance from your snow thrower.
1. All assembly instructions have been completed with all
bolts and nuts properly tightened.
2. Check the engine belt and the auger belt. Make sure
they are routed properly around pulleys and inside all
belt keepers.
3. Check discharge chute for proper rotation.
4. Check operation of tilt control for upper chute.
5. Verify that the lift handle will lock into and release from
the raised transport position. (Refer to the Service and
Adjustments section.)
6. Check skid shoe adjustment. (Refer to the Service and
Adjustments section.)
Operating instructions begin on page 25.
SETTING THE AUGER BELT TENSION
STEP 58: (SEE FIGURE 57)
• Pull the tensioning chain until it is extended out as
far as the 3/32" hairpin cotter installed in the chain
will allow. Install a 1/8" hairpin cotter (FF) through the
chain to secure it in the extended position.
NOTE:
After pulling the chain out, check to make sure
the belt does not rub against the keeper bolts. If the
belt rubs, slightly loosen the bolts, move them as far
from the pulleys as possible, and retighten.
