10. Insert the shift arm assembly into the friction wheel
assembly and hold assembly in position. See
Figure 22.
11. Slide hex gear shaft through right side of the
housing and the friction wheel assembly.
12. Insert the hex gear shaft through the sprocket and
the spacer. Make certain that chain engages both
the large and the small sprocket.
NOTE: If the sprocket fell from the snow thrower while
removing the hex gear shaft, place the sprocket on the
hex gear shaft. Position the hex hub of the sprocket
toward the friction wheel when sliding the sprocket on
to hex gear shaft.
13. Align the hex gear shaft with the left bearing and
carefully guide this bearing into left side of housing.
14. Install the right bearing on the hex gear shaft and
check that the spacer and bearing in the drive cover
are aligned to the steerable shaft. See Figure 22.

Adjustments
Drive Control
Refer to the Final Adjustment section of the Assembly
instructions to adjust the drive control. To check the
adjustment, proceed as follows:
1.
With the snow thrower tipped forward (be certain to
drain the gasoline or place plastic film under the
gas cap if the snow thrower has already been
operated), remove the frame cover underneath the
snow thrower by removing the self-tapping screws.
2. With the drive control released, there must be 1/8”
clearance between the friction wheel and the drive
plate in all positions of the shift lever.
3. With the drive control engaged, the friction wheel
must contact the drive plate (Figure 19).
4. If adjustment is necessary, loosen the jam nut on
the drive cable and thread the cable in or out as
necessary. Tighten the jam nut to secure the cable
when correct adjustment is reached. Reassemble
the frame cover.
NOTE: If you placed plastic under the gas cap, be
certain to remove it.
