Cable Guide
Auger and Traction Control Clutch
Adjustment
To check the adjustment of either drive clutch, push
forward on the clutch grip (depress the rubber
bumper). There should be slack in the cable.
Release the clutch grip. The cable should be
straight, but not tight. Make certain you can depress
the clutch grip against the handle completely.

If not already attached, slip the cables that run
from the handle panel to the chute into the cable
guide located on top of the engine. See Figure

Skid Shoe Adjustment (See Figure 8)
Unwrap the headlight wire which is attached to
the headlight, beneath the handle panel. Wind
the headlight wire around the right handle until
excess slack is removed.
The space between the shave plate and the ground
can be adjusted. For close snow removal, place skid
shoes in the low position. Use middle or high
position when area to be cleared is uneven. See
Figure 8.
Adjust skid shoes by loosening the six hex nuts and
carriage bolts and moving skid shoes to desired
position. Make certain the entire bottom surface of
skid shoe is against the ground to avoid uneven
wear on the skid shoes. Tighten nuts and bolts
securely. The skid shoes may be reversed for even
wear.
Plug the wire from the headlight into the wire
lead coming from the right side of the engine,
underneath the fuel tank.
