Troubleshooting Procedures

1Wheels/Tines/PTO Drive Lever: A. Lever does not stay in FORWARD–

• Drive belt may be too tight. Raise belt adjustment block a little (Sect. 5).

• Clutch pawl spring at end of lever may be overstretched. Install new spring.

B.Lever hard to shift into REVERSE–

• Check reverse disc for wear (Sect. 5).

• Check adjustment of reverse disc and/or reverse spring and plunger assy. (Sect. 5).

• Clean and re-lubricate motor mount bars, belt adjustment block and linkages on lever (Sect. 5).

C.Tiller stays in REVERSE when lever is released–

• Lubricate motor mount bars, belt adjust- ment block and linkages on lever (Sect. 5).

• Check adjustment of reverse spring and plunger (Sect. 5). If problem persists, contact Technical Service Department.

D.Lever sticks in FORWARD–

Lubricate motor mount bars, belt adjust- ment block, and linkages on lever (Sect. 5). If problem continues, contact the Technical Service Department.

E. Lever hard to shift into FORWARD–

Follow advice for Problem 1-D. Also check for possible bent motor mount bar that could be binding in engine mount holes.

2 Wheel Speed Lever:

A.Lever hard to shift, or sticks in FAST or SLOW wheel gear positions–

Linkage

Eccentric

Connecting Rod

Figure 5-43: Check connecting rod, shifting linkage and eccentric lever.

Lubricate eccentric lever at rear of power unit transmission (Figure 5-43). If rust is present, use penetrating oil and work eccentric lever back and forth by hand.

Lubricate linkage to Wheel Speed Lever to eccentric lever (Figure 5-43).

Clutch inside transmission may be binding. Disconnect linkage from eccentric lever and work eccentric lever by hand. If difficult or impossible to move, it may be due to a damaged keyway on the wheel shaft. Contact Technical Service Department.

Lubricate washers and castle nut on pivot of lever. If necessary, remove roll pin and back nut off 1/6th turn. Replace roll pin and test the movement.

Apply grease to zerk fitting (if so equipped) with grease gun until grease appears around washers.

B.Lever shifts into FAST wheel gear, but not into SLOW wheel gear–

• Connecting rod at end of lever might be backwards, or bent in toward transmission housing and hitting it. Other shifting linkage might be bent. Straighten or replace linkage (Figure 5-43).

• Clutch inside transmission may be binding (Problem 2-A).

C.Lever moves freely, but won’t shift in or out of gear–

• Eccentric shifting pin inside transmission may be broken (rare) or worn. Disconnect linkage from eccentric lever and try moving eccentric lever by hand (Figure 5-43). If lever moves easily, contact the Technical Service Department.

3 Wheels and Tines Won’t Turn:

Review operation of controls (Sect. 3 & 4).

Check condition and adjustment of drive belt and reverse disc (Sect. 5).

Mounting bolt for transmission drive pulley may be loose. (See Figure 5-1). If so, drive belt or reverse disc will turn pulley, but pulley won’t turn main drive shaft.

Worm gears that drive wheel and tiller shafts may be worn.

4 Wheels Turn, But Tines Won’t:

Tines/PTO Clutch Lever must be in ENGAGE position (Sect. 3).

Tines/PTO Clutch Lever may need adjust- ment.

Key for dog clutch on tine attachment main drive shaft may be missing, broken.

Worm gears that drive the tine shaft may be worn.

E682L, E686N, 682J specifications

The Troy-Bilt E682L and E682J are two powerful and efficient snow throwers designed for residential use, enabling homeowners to tackle winter's toughest snow challenges with ease. Both models are part of Troy-Bilt's commitment to creating durable equipment that simplifies outdoor maintenance.

One of the main features of the Troy-Bilt E682L and E682J is their robust engine. Equipped with a reliable 243cc OHV (Overhead Valve) engine, these snow throwers provide robust power, ensuring that users can clear snow quickly and effectively. The engines are designed for easy starting, even in cold conditions, so you won’t have to worry about fumbling with difficult pull cords when snowy weather strikes.

Another significant characteristic of these models is their 24-inch clearing width combined with a 21-inch intake height. This allows for efficient snow removal, enabling users to clear driveways and sidewalks with fewer passes. The heavy-duty auger system is engineered to cut through packed snow with ease, ensuring that even the toughest winter weather conditions don’t stand a chance.

Both the E682L and E682J feature a 180-degree adjustable chute that directs the snow where it needs to go. This puts control in the hands of the user, preventing snow from being thrown back onto the paths that have already been cleared. The quick-release chute deflector allows for easy height adjustments, giving users the flexibility to adapt to different snow conditions.

These models are also designed with user comfort in mind. The Troy-Bilt E682L and E682J come with heated hand grips, which make operating the snow thrower more pleasant during long periods in cold weather. The ergonomic handles provide a comfortable grip, and the adjustable handle height ensures that users of various sizes can operate the machine comfortably.

Additionally, both models feature large, rugged tires that provide enhanced traction on various surfaces, whether it’s icy pavement or a snow-covered driveway. This design consideration contributes to their overall stability and maneuverability, allowing users to navigate through challenging winter conditions with confidence.

In summary, the Troy-Bilt E682L and E682J snow throwers are powerful, user-friendly machines equipped with essential features that make snow removal efficient and manageable. With their reliable engines, robust clearing capabilities, adjustable chutes, and comfortable handling, these models are valuable tools for any homeowner looking to stay ahead of winter weather.
