Cub Cadet WO STAGE SNOW THROWER 930 SWE - Manual (Page 9)

While observing the distance between the shave plate and 2.
the ground, adjust the skids shoes up or down to achieve
the desired shave plate height. See Figure 3-9.
Make certain the entire bottom surface of skid shoes are
3.
against the ground to avoid uneven wear on the skid shoes;
then tighten nuts and bolts securely.
Auger and Drive Control Cables
WARNING! Prior to operating your snow thrower,
carefully read and follow all instructions below.
Perform all adjustments to verify your snow thrower
is operating safely and properly.
Testing Auger Drive Control
When the auger control is released and in the disengaged “up”
position, the cable should have very little slack. It should NOT be
tight. Refer to Figure 3-10.
In a well-ventilated area, start the snow thrower engine as 1.
instructed in Section 5 - Operation.
Tire Pressure (Pneumatic Tires)
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 all tires, the unit may
pull to one side or the other and the shave plate will not sit level
on the ground.
IMPORTANT: 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 sidewall of tire for recommended
pressure.
Adjustments
Skid Shoes
The snow thrower skid shoes are adjusted upward at the
factory for shipping purposes. Adjust them downward 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, adjust the skid
shoes so that the shave plate on the bottom of the auger
housing is just off the ground.
Adjust the skid shoes to a lower position to raise the shave plate
off the ground when clearing uneven areas, such as a ribbon
type driveway or 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:
Adjust skid shoes by loosening the six (three on each side) 1.
hex nuts, washers, and carriage bolts securing the skid
shoes to the auger housing. Refer to Figure 3-9.
