SECTION 8: SERVICE

AUGERS

The augers are secured to the spiral shaft with two shear bolts and hex lock nuts. See Figure 19. If you hit a foreign object or ice jam, the snow thrower is designed so that the hex bolts will shear.

If the augers will not turn, check to see if the bolts have sheared. Two replacement shear bolts and hex lock nuts have been provided with the snow thrower. For future use, order part number 710-0890A (shear bolt) and 712-0429 (hex lock nut).

SHAVE PLATE AND SKID SHOES

The shave plate and skid shoes on the bottom of the snow thrower are subject to wear. They should be checked periodically and replaced when necessary. To remove skid shoes, remove the four carriage bolts, bell washers and hex nuts which attach them to the snow thrower. Reassemble new skid shoes with the four carriage bolts, bell washers (cupped side goes against skid shoes) and hex nuts. Make certain the skid shoes are adjusted to be level.
