panels of the housing.

Lubrication
Gear Shaft
The gear (hex) shaft should be lubricated at least once a season
or after every twenty-five (25) hours of operation.
NOTE: Before tipping the unit on the front housing, run the fuel
tank empty to avoid a fuel leak.
1.
Carefully pivot the snow thrower up and forward so that it
rests on the auger housing.
2. Remove the frame cover from the underside of the snow
thrower by removing the self-tapping screws which secure
it. Refer to Figure 6-6.
3. Apply a light coating of engine oil (or 3-in-1 oil) to the hex
shaft. See Fig. 6-2.
NOTE: When lubricating the hex shaft, be careful not to get any
oil on the aluminum drive plate or the rubber friction wheel.
Doing so will hinder the snow thrower’s drive system. Wipe off
any excess or spilled oil.
4.
At least once a season grease the wheel axle with Arctic
grease, part number 737-0318. The grease fitting is located
on the wheel axle tube behind the wheel axle support
bracket.
Wheels
At least once a season, remove both wheels. Clean and coat the
axles with a multipurpose automotive grease before reinstalling
wheels.
Maintenance
WARNING! Before servicing, repairing, lubricating,
or inspecting, disengage all controls and stop
engine. Wait until all moving parts have come to a
complete stop. Remove the ignition key, disconnect
the spark plug wire and ground it against the engine
to prevent unintended starting. Always wear safety
glasses during operation or while performing any
adjustments or repairs.
Engine
Refer to the Engine Operators Manual Maintenance included
