If any parts are worn or damaged, replace
immediately.
Make sure to thoroughly clean the disc drive

How To Check And Adjust The Cables
CAUTION: Any greasing or oiling of the
above components can cause contamina-
tion of the friction wheel (3). If the disc
drive plate (1) or the friction wheel (3) be-
come contaminated with grease or oil,
damage to the friction wheel will result.
The auger gear case is lubricated at the fac-
tory and does not require additional lubrica-
tion. If for some reason the lubricant leaks
out, have the auger gear case checked by a
factory authorized service center.
Check all safety and instruction decals and
labels. Replace any decals or labels that are
missing or cannot be clearly read.
The traction drive cable and the auger drive
cable are adjusted at the factory. During normal
use, a cable can become stretched and must be
checked and adjusted as follows.
All adjustments in the Maintenance section of
this manual should be checked at least once
each season.

The control cable is correctly adjusted if the
center of the “Z” fitting (1) is aligned (4)
with the hole in the drive lever (2) and there
in no droop in the cable.
The following adjustment should be preformed
more than once each season.

This snow thrower is equipped with two height
adjustable skids (7). These skids elevate the
front of the snow thrower. For normal hard sur-
faces, such as a paved driveway or walk, adjust
the skids as follows.
How To Adjust The Auger Drive Cable

WARNING: Be certain to maintain
proper ground clearance for the
area to be cleared. Objects such
as gravel, rocks or other debris, if struck
by the impeller, can be thrown with suffi-
cient force to cause personal injury, prop-
erty damage or damage to the snow throw-
er.
