TO ADJUST SKID PLATES (See Fig. 16)
NOTE: The  wrench provided  in your  parts bag  may be
used to adjust the skid plates.
WARNING:  Wipe off any spilled oil or

Skid plates are located on each side of the auger housing
and adjust the clearance between the scraper bar and the
ground surface. Adjust skid plates evenly to proper height

bar and the ground.  Use  a middle position if the surface
to be cleared is uneven.

ohol or using ethanol or methanol) can attract
moisture which  leads  to separation  and for-
mation of acids during storage. Acidic gas can
damage the fuel system of an engine while in
storage.   To avoid  engine problems, the  fuel
system should  be emptied before  storage of

days or longer.   Empty the  gas tank, start
