Set-Up, Adjustments | Troy-Bilt 4510 guide

Set-Up

Shear Pins

A pair of replacement auger shear pins and bow tie cotter pins have been included with your snow thrower. Store the pins in a convenient place for use if an original equipment shear pin should break.

Chute Clean-Out Tool

The chute clean-out tool is fastened to the top of the auger housing with a mounting clip and a cable tie at the factory. Cut the cable tie before operating the snow thrower.

Tire Pressure (Pneumatic Tires)

The tires are over-inflated for shipping purposes. Check the tire pressure before operating the snow thrower. Refer to the tire side wall for tire manufacturer’s recommended psi and deflate (or inflate) the tires as necessary.

NOTE: If the tire pressure is not equal in all tires, the unit may pull to one side or the other and the shave plate will not sit level on the ground.

IMPORTANT: Under any circumstance do not exceed manufacturer’s recommended psi. Equal tire pressure should be maintained at all times. Excessive pressure when seating beads may cause tire/rim assembly to burst with force sufficient to cause serious injury. Refer to sidewall of tire for recommended pressure.

Adjustments

Skid Shoes

The snow thrower skid shoes are adjusted upward at the factory for shipping purposes. Adjust them downward prior to operating the snow thrower.

Caution: It is not recommended that you operate this snow thrower on gravel as it can easily pick up and throw loose gravel, causing personal injury or damage to the snow thrower and surrounding property.

For close snow removal on a smooth surface, adjust the skid shoes so that the shave plate on the bottom of the auger housing is just off the ground.

Adjust the skid shoes to a lower position to raise the shave plate off the ground when clearing uneven areas, such as a ribbon type driveway or a gravel driveway

NOTE: If you choose to operate the snow thrower on a gravel surface, keep the skid shoes in position for maximum clearance between the ground and the shave plate.

To adjust the skid shoes:

1.Adjust skid shoes by loosening the six (three on each side) hex nuts, washers, and carriage bolts securing the skid shoes to the auger housing. Refer to Figure 3-7.

2.Whileobservingthedistancebetweentheshaveplateandthe ground, adjust the skids shoes up or down to achieve the desired shave plate height. See Figure 3-7.
