TO REMOVE WHEELS (See Fig. 24)
Remove the klik pin and remove wheel from axle.
NOTE: To seal punctures or prevent flat tires due to slow
leaks, tire sealant may be purchased from your local parts
dealer. Tire sealant also prevents tire dry rot and corrosion.
•
IMPORTANT: When installing wheel, be sure to use the in-
nermost hole in axle and the wheel hub hole. To disengage
drive system from the wheels (for pushing or transporting
the snow thrower), remove klik pin from wheel hub and
insert pin into the outermost hole in axle only.
ENGINE
See engine manual.
CARBURETOR
Your carburetor is not adjustable. Engine performance
should not be affected at altitudes up to 7,000 feet (2,134
meters). If your engine does not operate properly due to
suspected carburetor problems, take your snow thrower to
a qualified service center.

ENGINE SPEED
Never tamper with the engine governor, which is factory set
for proper engine speed. Overspeeding the engine above
the factory high speed setting can be dangerous and will
void the warranty. If you think the engine-governed high
speed needs adjusting, contact a qualified service center,
which has proper equipment and experience to make any
necessary adjustments.

FUEL SYSTEM
IMPORTANT: It is important to prevent gum deposits from
forming in essential fuel system parts such as carburetor,
fuelhose,ortankduringstorage.Also,alcoholblendedfuels
(called gasohol or using ethanol or methanol) can attract

during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of
an engine while in storage.
