Skid Shoes
IMPORTANT: It is not recommended that you operate this snow
thrower on gravel as loose gravel can be easily picked up and
thrown by the auger causing personal injury or damage to the
snow thrower.
If for some reason, you have to operate the snow thrower on
gravel, keep the skid shoe in the highest position for maximum
clearance between the ground and the shave plate.
The space between the shave plate and the ground can be adjusted by
raising or lowering the skid shoes.
For close snow removal, as when using on a smooth concrete or
asphalt driveway, place the skid shoes in the low position. Use the
middle or high position when the area to be cleared is uneven. When
operating on gravel, always put skid shoes in the high position.
See Figure 17.
