Testing Drive Control & Shift Lever

4.With the auger control in the disengaged “up” position, walk to the front of the machine.

5.Confirm that the auger has completely stopped rotating and shows NO signs of motion. If the auger shows ANY signs of rotating, immediately return to the operator’s position and shut off the engine. Wait for ALL moving parts to stop before re-adjusting the auger control.

1.With the engine turned off, move the shift lever into sixth

(6) position. Refer to Figure 3-8.

2.With the wheel drive control released, push the snow thrower forward, then pull it back. The machine should move freely.

3.Engage the drive control and attempt to move the machine both forward and back, resistance should be felt.

4.Move the shift lever into the fast reverse (R2) position and repeat the previous two steps.

5.If you experienced resistance rolling the unit, either when repositioning the shift lever from 6 to R2 or when attempting to move the machine with the drive control released, adjust the drive control immediately. See Adjusting Drive and Auger Controls.

Adjusting Drive and Auger Controls

1.From beneath the handle, pull downward on the appropriate cable and unhook the spring found on the end of the cable from its respective actuator bracket. Refer to

Figures 3-8 and 3-9.

Figure 3-9

2.Slide the spring up the cable to expose the cable coupler threads and lock nut. Refer to Figure 3-10.

3.Adjust the lock nut as follows: If adjusting the drive cable, thread the lock nut outward (down the coupler) to lengthen the cable and allow the unit to move freely when the control is released. Thread the lock nut inward (up the coupler) to shorten the cable to reduce slippage and prevent the machine from being easily moved with the drive control engaged.

Figure 3-10

Warning! Do not over-tighten the cable. Over- tightening may prevent the auger from disengaging and compromise the safety of the snow thrower.

4.If adjusting the auger cable, thread the lock nut down to lengthen the cable as necessary to stop the auger from turning when the control is released.

5.Securely hook the cable’s spring into the rear most hole of the respective actuator bracket.
