WARNING: Before doing any as- sembly or maintenance to the snow thrower, remove the wire from the

spark plug.

NOTE: In this instruction book, left and right describe the location of a part from the oper- ator’s position behind the unit.

NOTE: Torque is measured in foot pounds (metric N.m). This measurement describes how tight a nut or bolt must be. The torque is measured with a torque wrench.

NOTE: Fasteners and loose parts are shown at full size in Figure 31 on page 35.

NOTE: Illustrations are located on page 2 and on pages 29 through 34.

3.Cut down all four corners of the carton and lay the side panels flat.

4.Locate all parts that are packed separately and remove from the carton.

5.Remove and discard the packing material from around the snow thrower.

6.(Figure 1) For shipping purposes, the height adjust skids (7) are attached to the pallet. Remove the screw (17) that secures each height adjust skid (7) to the pallet.

7.Hold onto the lower handle and pull the snow thrower off the pallet.

CAUTION: DO NOT back over cables.

8.Remove the packing material from the han- dle assembly.

9.Cut the ties that secure the clutch control cables (1) to the lower handle (2). Move the cables away from the motor frame.

How To Assemble The Handle And Crank Assembly

1.(Figure 4) Loosen, but do not remove, the fasteners (1) in the upper holes of the lower handle.

2.Remove the fasteners and the crank assem- bly eyebolt (11) from the lower holes of the lower handle.

3.(Figure 1) Put the shift lever (6) into first forward position.

4.(Figure 4) Raise the upper handle (2) to the operating position.

NOTE: Make sure the cables are not caught between the upper and lower han- dle.

5.Install the fasteners and the crank assembly eyebolt (11) that were removed DO NOT tighten until all fasteners are in place.

6.(Figure 6) Attach the crank rod (15) to the universal joint assembly (16) with the hair pin (12).

7.(Figure 4) Tighten nut on eye bolt (11). Make sure eye bolt (11) is properly aligned and the crank (18) can freely rotate.

8.Tighten all handle fasteners.

How To Install The Speed Control Rod

1.(Figure 9) Attach the ball joint (6), located on the bottom end of the speed control rod (2), to the shift yoke assembly (7). The fas- teners (8) are attached to the ball joint (6) at the factory.

The length of the ball joint (6) and speed control rod (2) have been pre--adjusted at the factory. If an adjustment is required, loos- en the nut (9). Remove the fasteners (8) to disconnect the ball joint (6) from the shift yoke assembly (7). To lengthen or shorten the speed control rod (2), turn the adapter

(10)to obtain the correct length.

2.Attach the handle (11) onto the speed se- lect lever (5). On some models the handle

(11)is attached. To lock in position, tighten the hex jam nut (10) against the bottom of the handle (11).

3.Make sure the speed select lever (5) func- tions correctly. Move the speed select lever

(5)through all speeds.

How To Install The Knobs

NOTE: If knobs are already installed, go to the next selection.

Remote Chute Knob

1.Assemble remote chute knob (1) onto lever

(3)until snug against nut (2). On some mod- els the remote chute knob (1) is attached.

2.Make sure lip (4) on the remote chute knob

(1)is pointed toward the engine.

3.Tighten the nut (2) against the bottom of the remote chute knob (1).

How To Assemble The Chute Deflector

1.(Figure 7) Remove carriage bolt (1).

2.Raise the chute deflector (2) into operating position (3).

3.Fasten chute deflector (2) to flange (4) with carriage bolts (1). Make sure to install with head of the carriage bolts (1) on the inside of the flange (2).

4.Fasten with washers (5) and locknuts (6).

2.(Figure 11) If the top of the cables (5) have become disconnected from the drive levers

(6), attach the cables (5) to the “Z” fitting

(7).

How To Set The Skid Height (Figure 1)

The snow thrower is equipped with height ad- justable skids (7) mounted on the outside of the auger housing (4). To adjust the height of the skids, see “How To Adjust The Height Of The Skids” in the Maintenance section.

How To Set The Length Of The Cables

The cables were adjusted at the factory and no adjustments should be necessary. However, af- ter the handles are put in the operating position, the cables can be too tight or too loose. If an adjustment is necessary, see “How To Check And Adjust The Cables” in the Service And Ad- justment section.

How To Assemble The Drift Cutter (if equipped)

Drift cutters are used to cut a path through snow deeper than the auger housing.

1.Loosen the wingnuts (2) that secure the drift cutters (1) to the auger housing.

2.Raise the drift cutters (1) to the desired height.

3.Tighten the wingnuts (2).

How To Prepare The Engine

NOTE: The engine was shipped from the factory filled with oil. Check the level of the oil. Add oil as needed.

WARNING: Follow the engine manufacturer’s instructions for the type of fuel and oil to use. Always

use a safety fuel container. Do not smoke when adding gasoline to the engine. When inside an enclosure, do not fill with gaso- line. Before you add fuel, stop the engine. Let the engine cool for several minutes.

Check the oil. See the engine manufacturer’s instructions for the type of fuel and oil to use. Before you use the unit, read the information on safety, operation, maintenance, and storage.

Important! Before You Start Operating

UCheck the fasteners. Make sure all fas- teners are tight.

UOn electric start models, the unit was shipped with the starter cord plugged into the engine. Before operating, un- plug the starter cord from the engine.

UIf a bar code label is attached to the han- dle, remove before operating.

OPERATION

NOTE: Illustrations are located on page 2 and on pages 29 through 34.
