Final Adjustments
IMPORTANT: Check the adjustments as instructed and
make any final adjustments necessary before operating
the unit. Check all nuts and bolts for tightness. Failure to
follow these instructions may cause damage to unit.
Tire Pressure
The proper inflation pressure is 20 psi. Check the tire
pressure periodically and maintain equal pressure in both
tires at all times. Excessive pressure (well above 20 psi)
may cause the wheel (tire/rim) assembly to burst with
sufficient force to cause serious injury. Do not over-inflate
the tire. Use a manual pump or portable electric tire
inflator to prevent over-inflation. NEVER USE AN AIR
COMPRESSOR.
All references to left
or right side of the snow
thrower is from the
operating position only.
