Squeeze and release the remote wheel lock to lock the

NOTE: The wheel lock will not release when under
load. Do not unlock the wheel while turning. If the
wheel lock will not release, turn the unit slightly left or
right to relieve axle load and release the axle lock.

Lock (921002) on page 21).
Axle Lock Pin (921001)
(Figure 19)
Use the axle lock pin to lock or unlock the right or left
wheel. Lock both wheels to increase traction; unlock
one wheel to allow for easier turning of the unit.
NOTE: Unit will not drive with both wheels unlocked.
Scraper Blade
The scraper blade allows the back of the housing to
keep better contact with the surface being cleared. It
also prevents damage to the housing from normal
wear.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT allow Scraper Blade to wear
too far or Auger/Impeller housing will become
damaged.
Runners
The runners control the distance between the scraper
blade and the ground. Adjust runners equally to keep
blade level with the ground. Refer to Pre-Start on
page 16 for recommended settings.
