Section 4: Operation (continued)
(J, Fig. 4-2) are 1/8” above the
surface to be cleared. If the unit is
used to clear a gravel or uneven
surfaces, this adjustment should be
increased so gravel or other foreign
objects are not scooped into the
auger.
To adjust the auger housing/scraper
blade height;
a. Move the unit onto a level
surface.
b. Loosen the hardware securing
the skid shoes (H, Fig. 4-3).
c. Adjust the skid shoes (H) until
they are in the correct position to
support the auger housing and
the scraper blade (Adjust both
skid shoes the same to prevent
uneven snow removal).
d. Tighten the hardware to lock the
skid shoes (H) into the proper
position.
7. The scraper blade (J, Fig. 4-2) can
also be adjusted. Adjust the scraper
blade (J) at the carriage bolts (Z, Fig.
4-2). Adjust the bottom edge of the
scraper blade so it is parallel with the
bottom edge of the auger.
8. Adjust the discharge chute deflector
cap (D, Fig. 4-4) with lever (E) to the
defector cap low, especially in windy
conditions.
9. Rotate the discharge chute control
rod (crank) (C, Fig. 4-5) and check for
binding.
10. Check the auger drive and wheel drive
control levers for freedom of
movement.
11. Check the tire pressure. Inflate both
tires evenly to 15-20 PSI (103-137
Kpa).
