SECTION 5: MAKING ADJUSTMENTS
WARNING:
Never attempt to make any
adjustments while the engine is running,
except where specified in operator’s manual.
Shift Rod Adjustment
If the full range of speeds (forward and reverse) cannot 
be achieved, refer to the figures to the right and adjust 
the shift rod as follows:
Place the shift lever in the fastest forward 
speed position. Remove the hairpin clip which 
secures the ferrule to the shift lever.
Figure 13
Rotate the shift arm clockwise as far as it will 
go.
Figure 14
Thread the ferrule up or down the shift rod until 
it aligns with the hole in the shift lever behind 
the handle panel. Resecure the ferrule with the 
hairpin clip removed earlier.
Chute Assembly
The distance snow is thrown can be adjusted by 
changing the angle of the chute assembly. To do so, 
stop the engine by removing the ignition key and loosen 
the plastic wing knob found on the left side of the chute 
assembly. Pivot the chute upward or downward before 
re-tightening the wing knob. See Figure 16 .

Chute Bracket Adjustment
If the spiral at the bottom of the chute directional control 
is not fully engaging with the chute assembly, the chute 
bracket can be adjusted. To do so, loosen the two nuts 
which secure the chute bracket and reposition it slightly 
before retightening the nuts. See Figure 17 .
