NOTE: Some models are equipped with reversible skid shoes and may be turned over to increase their lifespan. See Figure 19.

CAUTION: Loose gravel can be picked up and thrown by the auger, causing injury to the operator and bystanders and/or damage to the snow thrower and surrounding property.

•Make certain the entire bottom surface of skid shoe is against the ground to avoid uneven wear on the skid shoes. Retighten nuts and bolts securely.
