To Engage Track Drive
• With the engine running near top speed, move the
shift lever into one of the six FORWARD positions
or two REVERSE positions. Select a speed
appropriate for the snow conditions that exist.
NOTE: Use slower speeds in higher snow and until you
are familiar with the operation of the snow thrower.
• Squeeze the traction control against the right
handle and the snow thrower will move. Release it
and the drive motion will stop.
IMPORTANT: NEVER move the shift lever without first
releasing the traction control. Doing so will cause
premature wear to the drive system’s friction wheel.
To Engage Augers
To engage the augers and start the snow throwing
action, proceed as follows:
• Squeeze the auger control against the left handle.
To disengage power to the augers:
• Release both the auger control and the traction
control, if engaged.
The auger control can be locked so you can turn the
electric chute directional control without interrupting the
snow throwing process.
Operating Tips
NOTE: Allow the engine to warm up for a few minutes.
The engine will not develop full power until it reaches
operating temperature.
WARNING: The temperature of the
muffler and the surrounding areas may
exceed 150
°
F. Avoid these areas.
• For the most efficient snow removal, remove snow
immediately after it falls.
• Discharge the snow downwind whenever possible.
• Slightly overlap each previous path.
• Set the skid shoes 1/4" below the shave plate for
normal usage. The skid shoes may be adjusted
upward (to lower the shave plate) for hard-packed
snow. Adjust downward (to raise the shave plate)
when using on gravel or crushed rock.
• Be certain to follow the precautions found in the To
Stop Engine section to prevent possible freeze-up.
• Clean the snow thrower thoroughly after each use.
SECTION 5: MAKING ADJUSTMENT
WARNING: NEVER attempt to make any
adjustments while the engine is running,
except where specified in the operator’s
manual.
Auger Control Adjustment
Refer to the information found under Final
Adjustments in the Assembly Section to adjust the
auger control.
Traction Control Adjustment
Refer to the information found under Final Adjustment
in the Assembly Section to adjust the traction control. If
you are uncertain that you have reached the correct
adjustment, proceed as follows:
WARNING: Drain the gasoline out of the
snow thrower’s tank, or place a piece of
plastic film under the gas cap to avoid
spillage BEFORE making the adjustment.
• Tip the snow thrower forward, allowing it to rest on
the auger housing.
• Remove the frame cover underneath the snow
thrower by removing the six self-tapping screws.
• With the traction control released, there must be
clearance between the friction wheel and the drive
plate in all positions of the shift lever.
• With the traction control engaged, the friction wheel
must contact the drive plate. See Figure 9.
Figure 9
If adjustment is necessary:
• Loosen the jam nut on the traction drive cable.
Adjust the cable as necessary. Refer to Figure 5.
• Retighten the jam nut to secure the cable when
correct adjustment is reached.
• Reassemble the frame cover.
NOTE: If you placed plastic film under the gas cap, be
certain to remove it before operating the snow thrower.
