Drift Cutters (If Equipped)
Drift cutters should be used when operating the snow thrower in
heavy drift conditions.
On models so equipped, drift cutters and hardware are
•
assembled to the auger housing inverted.
Remove the carriage bolts and wingnuts securing the drift
•
cutters to the housing.
Reposition drift cutters so they face forward as shown
•
in Fig. 3-9. Secure with hardware previously removed,
wingnuts should be fastened on the
outside
of the
housing as shown.
Clean-Out Tool
The clean-out tool is mounted to the rear of the auger housing
and is designed to clear a clogged chute. Refer to page 13 for
instructions on how to properly use it.
NOTE:
This item is fastened with a cable tie to the rear of the
auger housing at the factory. Cut the cable tie before operating
the snow thrower. See Fig. 3-10.

Chute Clean-Out
Tool
WARNING:
Never use your hands to clean snow
and ice from the chute assembly or auger housing.
Lamp Wiring Harness (If equipped))
The post on the cable tie attaching the lamp wiring harness to
the lower handle should be plugged into the hole in the lower
handle. Pull the slack portion of the wiring harness through the
cable tie to prevent interference with the recoil starter handle.
See Fig. 3-11.
Shear Pin Storage (optional)
On some models an area for convenient shear pin storage is
located at the rear of the plastic dash panel.
Tire Pressure
The tires are over-inflated for shipping purposes. Check the tire
pressure before operating the snow thrower. Refer to the tire side
wall for tire manufacturer’s recommended psi and deflate (or
inflate) the tires as necessary.
WARNING:
Under any circumstance do not exceed
manufacturer’s recommended psi. Equal tire
pressure should be maintained at all times. Excessive
pressure when seating beads may cause tire/rim
assembly to burst with force sufficient to cause
serious injury. Refer to sidewall of tire for
recommended pressure.
NOTE:
Equal tire pressure is to be maintained at all times for
performance purposes.
