Checking and Adjusting the
Skids and Scraper

Check the skids and the scraper to ensure that the
auger does not contact the paved or gravel surface.
Adjust the skids and the scraper as needed to
compensate for wear.

1.

Check the tire pressure. Refer to Checking the

Tire Pressure on page 8.

2.

Loosen the

nuts that secure
both skids to the
auger sides until
the skids slide up
and down easily.

1/2 in. (13mm)
minimum

3.

Support the side plates so that they are at least

1/2 inch (13 mm) above a level surface.

4.

Ensure that the scraper is 1/8 inch (3 mm) above

and parallel to a level surface.

Note: If the pavement is cracked, rough, or uneven,
adjust the skids to raise the scraper. For gravel
surfaces, raise the scraper to prevent the
snowthrower from picking up rocks.

5.

Move the skids down until they are even with the

ground.

6.

Firmly tighten the nuts that secure both skids to

the auger sides.

Note: To quickly adjust the skids if they loosen,
support the scraper 1/8 inch (3 mm) off the pavement,
then adjust the skids down to the pavement.

Note: If the skids become excessively worn, you can
turn them over and set the unused side toward the
pavement.

Checking and Adjusting the
Traction Cable

Check and adjust the traction cable after the first
2 operating hours, then annually thereafter. If the
snowthrower does not drive in the forward or reverse
speeds or it drives when you release the traction
lever, adjust the traction cable.

With the traction lever disengaged, check the pin (A)
in the elongated slot in the left side of the
snowthrower above the tire (B). There should be a
gap of 1/32 to 1/16 in. (1 to 1.5 mm) from the front of
the slot to the front edge of the pin.

If the left hand (traction) cable is not properly
adjusted, do the following steps:

1.

Loosen the

jam nut (A).

2.

Loosen or

tighten the
turnbuckle (B) to
adjust the pin until
it is the proper gap
from the front edge
of the slot.

Note: Ensure
that the cable
does not twist.

3.

Tighten the

jam nut.
