Position the friction wheel assembly up onto the pin
of the shift rod assembly, and slide the shaft
through the assembly. Reassemble in reverse
order.
•
Drain carburetor by pressing upward on bowl drain,
located below the carburetor cover.
WARNING: Drain fuel into an approved
container outdoors, away from open flame.
Allow engine to cool. Extinguish cigarettes,
cigars, pipes, and other sources of ignition
prior to draining fuel. Fuel left in engine for
extended period deteriorates and will cause
serious starting problems.
Augers
The augers are secured to the spiral shaft with two
shear bolts and hex lock nuts. Refer to Figure 14. If you
hit a foreign object or ice jam, the snow thrower is
designed so that the bolts may shear. If the augers will
not turn, check to see if the bolts have sheared.
NOTE: Fuel stabilizer is an acceptable alternative in
minimizing the formation of fuel gum deposits during
storage. Add stabilizer to gasoline in fuel tank or
storage container. Always follow mix ratio found on
stabilizer container. Run engine at least 10 minutes
after adding stabilizer to allow it to reach carburetor. Do
not drain carburetor if using fuel stabilizer.
IMPORTANT: NEVER replace the auger shear bolts with
standard hex bolts. Any damage to the auger gearbox
or other components as a result of doing so will NOT be
covered by your snow throwers warranty.
Off-season Storage

If unit is to be stored over 30 days, prepare for storage
as follows:
NOTE: When storing any type of power equipment in
an unventilated or metal storage shed, care should be
taken to rust proof the equipment. Using a light oil or
silicone, coat the equipment, especially any chains,
springs, bearings and cables.
•
Remove gasoline from carburetor and fuel tank to
prevent gum deposits from forming on these parts
and causing possible malfunction of engine.
Run engine until fuel tank is empty and engine
stops due to lack of fuel.
