•If you face resistance when moving the shift lever or the snow thrower wheels stop when they should not, loosen the lock nut on the traction drive cable and unthread the cable one turn.

•If the wheels can still be turned when you engage the traction drive clutch grip, loosen the lock nut on the traction drive cable and thread the cable in one turn.

•Recheck the adjustment and repeat adjustment as necessary. Tighten the jam nut to secure the cable when correct adjustment is reached.

NOTE: If you are not sure that you have reached correct adjustment, refer to the Adjustment section on page 20.

Skid Shoe

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.

NOTE: It is not recommended that you operate this snow thrower on gravel as loose gravel can be easily picked up and thrown by the auger causing an injury or damage to the snow thrower.

•If for some reason, you have to operate the snow thrower on gravel, keep the skid shoe in the highest

position for maximum clearance between the ground and the shave plate.

•Adjust skid shoes by loosening the four 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.

Tire Pressure (Pneumatic Tires)

The tires are over-inflated for shipping purposes. Check tire pressure and reduce to 15 to 20 psi.

NOTE: If the tire pressure is not equal in both tires, the unit may pull to one side or the other.
