Checking the Engine Oil
Level
Checking and Adjusting the
Skids and Scraper
Each time before using the snowthrower, check the
oil level in the engine crankcase.
Check the skids and the scraper to ensure that the
auger does not contact the paved or gravel surface.
Adjust the skids and the scraper as needed to
compensate for wear.
1.
Remove the
dipstick, wipe it clean,
then fully install the
dipstick.
1. Check the tire pressure. Refer to Checking the
Tire Pressure on page 9.
2.
Remove the dipstick
2. Loosen the
nuts that secure
both skids to the
auger side plates
until the skids slide
up and down
and check the oil level. If
the oil level is below the
Add mark on the
dipstick, add oil. Refer to
Filling the Engine with
Oil on page 9.

3.
Support the side plates so that they are at least
1/2
inch (13 mm) above a level surface.
Important: The auger blades must be supported
above the ground by the skids.
4.
Ensure that the scraper is 1/8 inch (3 mm) above
and parallel to a level surface.
Note: If the pavement is cracked, rough, or uneven,
adjust the skids to raise the scraper. For gravel
surfaces, adjust the skids further down to prevent the
snowthrower from picking up rocks.
5.
Move the skids down until they are even with the
ground.
6.
Firmly tighten the nuts that secure both skids to
the auger side plates.
Note: To quickly adjust the skids if they loosen,
support the scraper 1/8 inch (3 mm) off the pavement,
then adjust the skids down to the pavement.
Note: If the skids become excessively worn, you can
turn them over and set the unused side toward the
pavement.
