Repeat on the other side of the snow thrower.
•
Loosen the jam nut and thread the cable in (for less

Tire Pressure (Pneumatic Tires)
The tires are overinflated for shipping purposes.
Skid Shoes
The space between the shave plate and the ground can
be adjusted by repositioning 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. Refer to Figure 8. When
operating on gravel, always put skid shoes in the high
position.
•
Check tire pressure. Maintain pressure between 10
and 14 psi.
NOTE: If the tire pressure is not equal in all tires, the
unit may pull to one side or the other.
WARNING: Maximum tire pressure under
any circumstance is 30 psi. Equal tire pressure
should be maintained at all times. Excessive
pressure (over 30 psi) when seating beads
may cause tire/rim assembly to burst with
force sufficient to cause serious injury.
Adjust skid shoes as follows:
•
Loosen, but do not remove, the three hex nuts
which fasten the skid shoe to the auger housing.
Raise or lower the skid shoe to desired position.
Retighten the hex nuts loosened earlier.
