Replacing Auger Paddles

The snow thrower auger’s rubber paddles are subject to wear

and should be replaced if any signs of excessive wear are present.

CAUTION:

Do NOT allow the auger’s rubber

paddles to wear to the point where portions of the

metal auger itself can come in contact with the

pavement. Doing so can result in serious damage to

your snow thrower.

To change the rubber paddles, proceed as follows:

Remove the existing rubber paddles by un-threading the

1.

self-tapping screws which secure them to the auger. See

Fig. 7-3.

Secure the replacement rubber paddles to the auger using

2.

the hardware removed earlier.

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.

Remove the four carriage bolts and hex lock nuts which

1.

attach it to the snow thrower housing.
Install the new shave plate, making sure the heads of the

2.

carriage bolts are on the inside of the housing.
Adjust the shave plate as instructed in the Maintenance &

3.

Adjustments Section.
Tighten securely once adjusted.
