Skid Shoes

The space between the skid shoes and the ground can be adjusted, Figure 5-4.

•For close snow removal on a smooth surface, raise skid shoes higher on the auger housing.

•Use a middle or lower position when the area to be cleared is uneven, such as a gravel driveway.

To adjust the skid shoes:

1. Loosen the four hex nuts (two on each side) and carriage bolts. Move skid shoes to desired position.

2. Make certain the entire bottom surface of skid shoe is against the ground to avoid uneven wear on the skid shoes.

3. Retighten nuts and bolts securely.
