Shift Rod Adjustment
To adjust the shift rod, proceed as follows:
•
Remove the hairpin clip and slide the shift rod
connector up, to separate the upper shift rod from
the lower shift rod. See Figure 10.
•
Place the shift lever into the sixth (6) position.
•
Rotate the shift arm clockwise (from the operator’s
position) as far as it will go.
•
Thread the upper shift rod downward until the
elbow on its lower end aligns with the hole found in
the lower shift rod.
•
Reconnect the upper shift rod to the lower shift rod
by reinserting the hairpin clip removed earlier and
sliding the shift rod connector back down into place.
IMPORTANT:
Make certain to check for correct
adjustment of the shift rod as instructed under Final
Adjustments in the Assembly Section, before operating
the snow thrower

SECTION 6: MAINTAINING YOUR SNOW THROWER
WARNING: Before lubricating, repairing,
or inspecting, disengage all clutch levers
and stop engine. Wait until all moving
parts have come to a complete stop.
Disconnect spark plug wire and ground it
against the engine to prevent unintended
starting.
Lubrication
Engine
Refer to the separate engine manual packed with your
unit for all engine lubrication instructions.
IMPORTANT:
When following instructions in separate
engine manual for draining oil, be sure to protect frame
to avoid oil dripping onto transmission parts.
Gear Shaft
Lubricate the gear shaft with 6-n-1 grease at least once
a season or after every 25 hours of operation (available
at automotive stores, or order part number 737-0170).
Refer to Figure 9.
IMPORTANT:
Keep all grease and oil off of the rubber
friction wheel and aluminum drive plate.
Drive and Shifting Mechanism
Lubricate at least once a season or after every 25 hours
of operation. Remove the rear cover, lubricate any
chains, sprockets, gears, bearings, shafts, and shifting
mechanism at least once a season. Use engine oil or a
spray lubricant. Avoid getting oil on the friction
wheel rubber and aluminum drive plate. Refer to
Figure 9.
There is a grease fitting on the top of the axle shaft
which drives the rear track drive wheels on both sides
of the unit. Grease these fittings every 25 hours or once
a season.
Traction Control / Auger Control Lock
The cams on the ends of the control rods which
interlock the traction drive and auger drive controls
must be lubricated at least once a season or every 25
hours of operation. The cams can be accessed beneath
the handle panel. Use a multi-purpose automotive
grease.
Electric Chute-Rotation Motor
The gear on the electric chute-rotation motor and the
base of the discharge chute itself should be lubed with
multi-purpose automotive grease once a season.
See Figure 11.
Gear Case
The gear case is equipped with a grease fitting on the
left housing and should be lubricated with Shell Alvania
grease EPR00, part number 737-0168 every 25 hours.
See Figure 12.
Do not overfill the gear case. Damage to the seals
could result. Be sure the vent plug is free of grease in
order to relieve pressure.
