Troy-Bilt 2410 - Manual (Page 11)

Tire Pressure
WARNING: Under any circumstance do not exceed
manufacturer’s recommended psi. Equal tire
pressure should be maintained at all times. Excessive
pressure when seating beads may cause tire/rim
assembly to burst with force sufficient to cause
serious injury. Refer to side wall of tire for
recommended pressure.
The tires are over-inflated for shipping purposes. Check the tire
pressure before operating the snow thrower. Refer to the tire side
wall for tire manufacturer’s recommended psi and deflate (or
inflate) the tires as necessary.
NOTE: If the tire pressure is not equal in both tires, the machine may
not travel in a straight path and the shave plate may wear unevenly.
Adjustments
Skid Shoes
The snow thrower skid shoes are adjusted upward at the factory
for shipping purposes. Adjust them downward, if desired, prior
to operating the snow thrower.
CAUTION: It is not recommended that you operate
this snow thrower on gravel as it can easily pick up
and throw loose gravel, causing personal injury or
damage to the snow thrower and surrounding
property.
For close snow removal on a smooth surface, raise skid •
shoes higher on the auger housing.
Use a middle or lower position when the area to be cleared
•
is uneven, such as a gravel driveway.
NOTE: If you choose to operate the snow thrower on a gravel
surface, keep the skid shoes in position for maximum clearance
between the ground and the shave plate.
To adjust the skid shoes:
Loosen the four hex nuts (two on each side) and carriage 1.
bolts. Move skid shoes to desired position. See Fig. 3-16.
Make certain the entire bottom surface of skid shoe is 2.
against the ground to avoid uneven wear on the skid shoes.
Retighten nuts and bolts securely.
