DEFLECTOR REMOTE (924116,
505, 506)
Deflector must stay in selected position while
throwing snow.
If deflector does not stay in set position:
1. Tighten nut beneath the control panel to
increase friction on pressure flange
(Figure 12).
If deflector does not follow full range of travel:
1. Push deflector remote all the way forward.
2. Loosen adjusting nuts on cable support
bracket.
3. To adjust the deflector lower:
Slide cable down. Tighten bottom nut.
4. To adjust deflector higher:
Slide cable up. Tighten top nut.
5. Check travel and repeat adjustment as
necessary.
DISCHARGE CHUTE
If chute does not stay in position while
operating, tighten nut on carriage bolt at pivot
point to increase tension on spring (Figure 13).
Smooth and easy rotation of properly
lubricated chute with crank is obtained by
adjusting pinion and chute gear teeth so they
mesh together.
RUNNERS
Runners should be adjusted (Figure 14) as
conditions require.
1. Position unit on a hard, flat, smooth level
surface.
2. Adjust runners by inserting a spacer of
desired thickness under center of scraper
blade, loosen runner hardware, slide
runners to flat surface. Allow 1/8 in
(3 mm) between scraper blade and hard
smooth surfaces. Allow 1-1/4 in (30 mm)
between scraper blade and uneven or
gravel surfaces. Retighten hardware.
NOTE: Keep housing level by adjusting
runners equally.
