CHECK DUAL HANDLE INTERLOCK
CHECK AUGER GEARCASE
Without the engine running, press down (engage) both
clutch levers. Release attachment clutch lever.
Attachment clutch should remain engaged until traction
clutch lever is released, then both clutches must
disengage.
IMPORTANT: Proper oil level must be maintained.
Gear cases are filled to the correct level at the factory.
Unless there is evidence of leakage, no additional
lubricant should be required. Check oil level each
season or every 25 hours of operation.
To ensure adequate lubricant level:
CHECK FASTENERS
1.
Remove filler plug (Figure 20). Lubricant must be
at least up to bottom of lubricant filler hole with
unit resting on a level-surface.
Make sure all hardware is tightened properly.
CHECK CLUTCH OPERATION
2.
Add lubricant if required. Allow oil to drain to level
of plug and replace plug.
Auger / impeller must stop within 5 seconds when
attachment clutch/impeller brake lever is released.
IMPORTANT: Use only Ariens special gear lubricant
L-2 (Part Number 00008000). Gearcase filler plug may
require an application of Loc-Tite® 565 thread sealant
with repeated servicing.
Wheels must stop quickly when traction drive clutch
lever is released.
If clutches do not engage or disengage properly, adjust
or repair before operation. See Attachment
Clutch/Brake Adjustment on page 24 and Traction
Drive Clutch Adjustment on page 27.

CHECK ENGINE OIL
GENERAL LUBRICATION
The engine crankcase oil should be checked every 5
hours of operation. Oil level MUST be maintained in
safe operating range on dipstick at all times or engine
damage will result (See Engine Manual).
IMPORTANT: Wipe each fitting clean before and after
lubrication. Do not wipe gearcase filler plug; wiping the
gearcase filler plug may remove thread sealant and
cause leaks.
Park unit on a level surface. Refer to Engine Manual for
detailed instructions.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT allow grease or oil to get on
friction disc, friction plate or belts.
NOTE: Apply Ariens Hi-Temp Grease or equivalent to
the lubrication fittings. See SERVICE PARTS on
page 30.
CHANGE ENGINE OIL
Models 926016, 017, 500, 501: Change oil after first 2
hours of operation, thereafter change oil every 25
hours (more often if required). Models 926021, 022,
023: Change oil after first 5 hours of operation,
thereafter change oil every 50 hours (more if
required).Refer to Engine Manual for detailed
instructions.
Sno-Thro should be lubricated (Figure 21) at beginning
of season or every 25 operating hours.
Auger Shaft
NOTE: To grease auger shaft, remove shear bolt nuts,
and shear bolts. Apply grease at the grease zerks and
then turn the auger shaft. Replace shear bolts per
instructions in Shear Bolts on page 22.
Run engine just prior to changing oil. Warm oil will flow
more freely and carry away more contamination.
Remove the oil drain plug from the rear of the unit and
tip the unit back to help drain all the oil.
CHECK TIRE PRESSURE
Keep tires at pressure listed on the tire sidewall. See
Check Tire Pressure (926016, 017, 500, 501) on
page 9.
