Electric Chute-Rotation Motor
Do not overfill the gear case. Damage to the seals
could result. Be sure the vent plug is free of grease in
order to relieve pressure.
The gear on the electric chute-rotation motor and the
base of the discharge chute itself should be lubed with
multi-purpose automotive grease once a season.
See Figure 11.
Auger Shaft
At least once a season, remove the shear bolts on the
auger shaft. Spray lubricant inside the shaft. Also
lubricate the plastic auger bearings at least once a
season and grease the fittings on the end of the auger
shaft with a standard grease gun. See Figure 12.

•
The augers are secured to the spiral shaft with two
shear bolts and hex lock nuts. If you hit a hard
foreign object or ice jam, the snow thrower is
designed so that the bolts may shear.
To remove shave plate, remove the carriage bolts, bell
washers, and hex nuts which attach it to the snow
thrower housing. Reassemble new shave plate, making
sure heads of the carriage bolts are to the inside of the
housing. Tighten securely.
Refer to Figure 12.
If the augers will not turn, check to see if the bolts
have sheared. Replacement shear bolts and hex
lock nuts have been provided with the snow
thrower. When replacing bolts, spray an oil
lubricant into shaft before inserting new bolts.
