SECTION 6: MAINTAINING YOUR SNOW THROWER
Replacing Belt
• Remove the belt cover by removing five hex
screws. See Figure 8.
Figure 8
• Pull up on the idler pulley and slip the belt off the
engine and auger pulley. See Figure 9.
Figure 9
• Reassemble new belt. Reinstall the belt cover.
Replacing Shave Plate
The shave plate is attached to the bottom of the auger
housing and is subject to wear. It should be checked
periodically. There are two wearing edges and the
shave plate can be reversed. Refer to Figure 6. To
replace or reverse the shave plate proceed as follows:
• Remove the four carriage bolts and hex lock nuts
which attach it to the snow thrower housing.
• Install new shave plate, making sure the heads of
the carriage bolts are on the inside of the housing.
• Adjust the shave plate according to instructions on
page 9. Tighten securely.
Engine
• Refer to the separate engine manual for all engine
maintenance procedures.
• Check engine and snow thrower frequently for
loose hardware, and tighten as needed.
Lubrication
Lubricate pivot points on the auger control handle and
the extension spring at the end of the control cable with
a light oil once every season and before storage of the
snow thrower at the end of the season.
Replacing the Auger’s Rubber Paddles
The snow thrower auger’s rubber paddles are subject
to wear and should be replaced if any signs of
excessive wear is present.
To change the rubber paddles, proceed as follows:
• Remove the existing rubber paddles by
unthreading the self-tapping screws which secure
them to the auger.
• Secure the replacement rubber paddles to the
auger using the hardware removed earlier.
SECTION 7: OFF-SEASON STORAGE
• Clean snow thrower thoroughly.
• Lubricate as instructed in “Maintaining Your Snow
Thrower” section of this manual.
• Follow “Storage” instructions in the Engine Manual.
• Store in a clean, dry area. Block the snow thrower
up so it is not resting on the rubber auger blades.
NOTE:
When storing any type of power equipment in a
poorly ventilated or metal storage shed, care should be
taken to rustproof the equipment, especially springs,
cables and all moving parts.
WARNING:
Before servicing, repairing, or
inspecting, disengage the auger control bail
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.
