IMPORTANT: It is not
recommended that
you operate this snow
thrower on gravel as
loose gravel can be
easily picked up and
thrown by the auger
causing personal
injury or damage to
the snow thrower.
If for some reason,
you have to operate
the snow thrower on
gravel, keep the skid
shoe in the highest
position for maximum
clearance between the
ground and the shave
plate.

Skid Shoes
The space between the shave plate and the ground can
be adjusted. For close snow removal, place skid shoes in
the low position. Use a middle or high position when area
to be cleared is uneven.
1. Adjust skid shoes by loosening the six lock nuts and
carriage bolts, and moving skid shoes to desired
position. See Figure 5-4.
2. Make certain the entire bottom surface of skid shoes
are against the ground to avoid uneven wear on the
skid shoes.
3. Tighten nuts and bolts securely.
Chute Bracket Adjustment
If the spiral at the bottom of the chute directional control
is not fully engaging with the chute assembly, the chute
bracket can be adjusted. To do so:
1. Loosen the two nuts which secure the chute bracket
and reposition it slightly. See Figure 5-5.
2. Retighten the nuts.
Auger Control
To adjust the auger control, refer to the section in this
manual titled “Setting Up Your Snow Thrower”.
