Checking and Adjusting the
Skids
Service Interval: Yearly—Check the skids and adjust them
if necessary.
Check the skids to ensure that the auger does not contact
the paved or gravel surface. Adjust the skids as needed to
compensate for wear.
1. Check the tire pressure. Refer to Checking the Tire
Pressure.
2. Loosen the nuts that secure both skids to the auger
sides until the skids slide up and down easily (
Figure
42 ).

3. Support the side plates so that they are at least 1/2
inch (1.3 cm) above a level surface.
Important:
The auger blades must be supported
above the ground by the skids.
4. Ensure that the scraper is 3 mm (1/8 inch) 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,
adjust the skids further down to prevent the machine
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 3 mm (1/8 inch) 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
Service Interval: After the first 2 hours—Inspect the
traction cable and adjust it if necessary.
Yearly—Inspect the traction cable and adjust or
replace it if necessary.
If the machine 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 in the
elongated slot in the left side of the machine above the tire.
There should be a gap of 1 to 1.5 mm (1/32 to 1/16 inch)
from the front of the slot to the front edge of the pin (
Figure
43 ).

2. 1 to 1.5 mm (1/32 to 1/16 inch)
If the left hand (traction) cable is not properly adjusted, do
the following steps:
1. Loosen the jam nut.
2. Loosen or tighten the turnbuckle to adjust the pin until
it is the proper gap from the front edge of the slot.
3. Tighten the jam nut ( Figure 44 ).
