SECTION 5: MAKING ADJUSTMENTS

WARNING: NEVER attempt to clean chute or make any adjustments or repairs while the engine is running.

Shave plate

•To check the adjustment of the shave plate, place the unit on a level surface. See Figure 12. The wheels, shave plate and augers should all contact the level surface. Note that if the shave plate is adjusted too high, snow may blow under the housing. If the shave plate wears excessively, or the unit will not self-propel, the shave plate may be adjusted too low.

NOTE: On new units or units with a new shave plate installed, the augers may be slightly off the ground.

Belt tension

Periodic adjustment of the belt tension may be required due to normal stretch and wear on the belt. Adjust the belt tension, following instructions below, if the augers seem to hesitate while turning although engine maintains the same speed.

•The upper hole in the control handle provides adjustment for belt tension. To adjust, disconnect the “Z” end of control cable from the bottom hole in the control handle. See Figure 14 . Hook the cable into the upper hole in control handle as shown.

SB 45 specifications

The White Outdoor SB 45 is a versatile and robust snow blower designed for residential use, making it ideal for homeowners who need an efficient solution for snow removal during winters. With an emphasis on performance and durability, the SB 45 is equipped with features that ensure effective snow clearing and ease of use.

One of the standout features of the SB 45 is its powerful engine. Typically powered by a reliable four-stroke engine, the snow blower delivers considerable torque and operational efficiency. This allows it to tackle heavy snow accumulations and icy conditions, making it suitable for a variety of winter climates.

The SB 45 is designed with an adjustable snow throwing distance, which empowers users to control where the snow is discharged. This is achieved through a simple lever system that adjusts the direction of the chute, allowing for precise snow placement without the need for additional manual effort.

Another key technology integrated into the SB 45 is its two-stage snow removal system. The first stage involves an auger that breaks up the snow, while the second stage uses an impeller to throw the snow out of the chute. This two-stage system ensures that even compacted snow is efficiently cleared, making the machine more effective than single-stage models.

The construction of the SB 45 features durable materials and a robust build that can withstand the rigors of winter use. The steel auger and heavy-duty frame contribute to its longevity, while also providing the strength needed to navigate through tough snow conditions.

Ease of maneuverability is another important aspect of the SB 45. The snow blower comes with large all-terrain tires that offer excellent traction, allowing it to navigate icy sidewalks and driveways with ease. Additionally, the machine's compact size and lightweight design enhance its portability, ensuring that it can be stored conveniently when not in use.

Convenience features such as a self-propelled drive system allow users to operate the snow blower without the need for excessive physical effort. Multiple speed settings ensure that users can adjust the speed according to their preference and the snow conditions.

Overall, the White Outdoor SB 45 is a reliable and efficient snow blower that combines power, durability, and user-friendly features. Its advanced technologies and thoughtful design make it a valuable tool for anyone looking to keep their property clear of snow during the winter months.
