SECTION 8: ADJUSTMENTS
WARNING: Never attempt to clean
chute or make any adjustments while
engine is running.
2. Remove the frame cover underneath the snow
thrower by removing the six self-tapping screws.
3.
With the traction control clutch released, check if
there is clearance between the friction wheel
and the drive plate in all positions of the shift
lever. For correct adjustment there has to be
enough clearance.
ADJUSTING CHUTE
You can control the distance that snow is thrown by
adjusting the angle of the chute assembly. The
sharper the angle, the shorter the distance snow is
thrown.
4. With the traction control clutch engaged, check if
the friction wheel is contacting the drive plate.
See Figure 25.
1.
To adjust the chute, loosen the hand knob. See
Figure 24.
5. If adjustment is necessary, loosen the jam nut
on the traction control cable, and thread cable in
or out as necessary.
2.
Pivot the top of the chute assembly to the
position desired.
6.
Tighten the jam nut to secure the cable when
correct adjustment is reached. Reassemble the
frame cover with six self-tapping screws.
