Cleaning & General Maintenance
For best results, and to maintain the finish of the
KX523, clean or wash the snow blower to remove
dirt, gravel, and salt deposits. Remove any ice or
snow accumulations from the auger, fan, fan hous-
ing, and discharge chute.
Attention
To maintain the finish of the power unit and attach -
ment, thoroughly wash the equipment after each
use to remove any corrosive agents (e.g., salt). Fail-
ure to clean the equipment may result in corrosion
of (including but not limited to) steel, aluminum, and
electrical components. Equipment that will experi-
ence repeated exposure to corrosive agents should
be pretreated with a corrosion preventative.
Cutting Edge Reversal/Replacement
If the cutting edge wears down near the snow blower
frame structure, remove the cutting edge and flip over
so the unworn top edge is now on the bottom. Rein-
stall the cutting edge onto the snow blower. When
both sides of the cutting edge have been worn down,
the cutting edge will need to be replaced.
Skid Shoe Replacement
Skid shoes should be replaced when wear surface is
less than 1/8” (32. mm) thick.
Vertical Cutting Edge Adjustment
The vertical cutting edges can be adjusted to pro-
vide either a 52” (132 cm) or 54” (137 cm) cutting
width. If the short flanges are mounted to the snow
blower, the cutting width is 52” (132 cm). If the long
flanges are mounted to the snow blower, the cut -
ting width is 54” (137 cm). To switch from one cut-
ting width to the other, rotate the cutting edges 180
degrees. Do not switch cutting edges to opposite
sides of the snow blower.
Belt Inspection/Replacement
Inspecting the drive belts of the snow blower can
prevent sudden belt failure by finding problems
before they cause a belt to break.
Typical wear on a drive belt may result in the condi-
tions shown
in the dia-
gram. If any
of these
conditions
occur, the
drive belt will
require
replacement.
