SECTION 5: MAKING ADJUSTMENTS
Shave Plate
• To check the adjustment of the shave plate, place
the unit on a level surface. See Figure 6. The
wheels, shave plate and augers should all contact
level surface. Note that if the shave plate is
adjusted too high, snow may blow under the
housing. If the shave plate wears out excessively,
or the unit does not self-propel, the shave plate
may be too low and needs to be adjusted.
NOTE:
On new units or units with a new shave plate
installed, the augers may be slightly off the ground.
Figure 6
• To adjust, tip the snow thrower back so that it rests
on the handle. Loosen the four lock nuts and bolts
which secure the shave plate to the housing. See
Figure 7. Move the shave plate to desired position
and retighten the nuts and bolts securely.

Control Cable
As a result of both the control cable and the drive belt
stretching due to wear, periodic adjustments may be
necessary.
If the auger seems to hesitate when rotating while the
engine maintains a constant speed, an adjustment is
necessary. Proceed as follows:
The upper hole in the control handle provides an
adjustment in cable tension. To adjust, disconnect the
end of control cable from the bottom hole in the control
handle and reinsert it in the upper hole. Test the snow
thrower to see if there is a noticeable difference.
Carburetor
• Refer to the separate engine manual, packed with
your unit, for carburetor adjustment information.
WARNING:
NEVER attempt to make any
adjustments while the engine is running,
except where specified in the operator’s
manual.

WARNING:
If any adjustments need to be
made to the engine while the engine is running
(e.g. carburetor), keep clear of all moving parts.
Be careful of muffler, engine and other
surrounding heated surfaces.
