Do not over-tighten, as this may cause traction
drive to engage without depressing the traction

speed selector in position 1 and traction drive
control fully released, push snowthrower forward.
The unit should move forward freely.

With the drive lever released there should be no
slack in the cable when moved slightly from side to
side.
To adjust tension on the cable slide the cable boot
(A, Figure 17) off the cable adjustment bracket (D).
If unit does not move forward freely, the cable has
been over-tightened. To remedy, loosen tension
on clutch cable slightly, and recheck.
3. Remove the “Z” hook (C) from the cable adjustment
bracket (D) to a different adjustment hole. The cable
should have no slack. The cable should have no ten-
sion or load.
