Making

Adjustments

WARNING

Read, understand, and follow all instruc- tions and warnings on the machine and in this manual before operating.

Never attempt to make any adjust- ments while the engine is running, except where speci- fied in operator’s manual.

Shift Cable

If the full range of speeds (forward and reverse) cannot be achieved, refer to the figure to the left and adjust the shift cable as follows:

1.Place the shift lever in the fastest forward speed position.

2.Loosen the hex nut on the shift cable index bracket. See Figure 5-1.

3.Pivot the bracket downward to take up slack in the cable.

4.Retighten the hex nut.

5.Check for correct adjustment before operating the snow thrower.

Chute Control

Once a season or every 25 hours of operation, whichever is earlier, check whether the four-way chute control™ cables have slackened. If the chute does not rotate fully or its pitch cannot be moved up or down, the chute control cables will have to be adjusted.

To adjust these cables, proceed as follows:

1.To tighten cable, loosen the top nut and tighten the bottom nut on the cable.

2.Adjust equally on both sides by working on both cables. See Figure 5-2.

Drive Control & Shift Lever

When the drive control is released and in the disengaged “up” position, the cable should have very little slack. It should NOT be tight.

Check the adjustment of the drive control as follows:

1.With the drive control released, push the snow thrower gently forward. The unit should roll freely.

2.Engage the drive control and gently attempt to push the snow thrower forward. The wheels should not turn. The unit should not roll freely.

3.With the drive control released, move the shift lever back and forth between the R2 position and the F6 position several times. There should be no resistance in the shift lever.

4.If any of the above tests failed, the drive cable is in need of adjustment. Proceed as follows:

5.Loosen the lower hex nut on the drive cable bracket. See Figure 5-3.

6.Position the bracket upward to provide more slack (or downward to increase cable tension).

7.Retighten the lower hex nut.

You can also check the adjustment as follows:

1.With the snow thrower tipped forward (be certain to drain gasoline or place plastic film under the gas cap if the snow thrower has already been operated), remove the frame cover underneath the snow thrower by removing the self-tapping screws. Refer to step 2 on page 17.

The Cub Cadet Two Stage Snow Thrower is an exceptional piece of equipment designed to tackle the challenges of winter weather with efficiency and ease. This powerful snow removal machine is engineered to provide high-performance snow clearing, making it an essential tool for homeowners dealing with heavy snowfall.

One of the standout features of the Cub Cadet Two Stage Snow Thrower is its robust engine. Equipped with a reliable, heavy-duty engine, this snow thrower delivers exceptional torque and ensures seamless operation even under the most challenging conditions. The engine's efficiency contributes to its ability to clear snow quickly, making it ideal for large driveways and sidewalks.

The two-stage system is another hallmark of this machine. Utilizing an auger and impeller system, the snow thrower can efficiently gather and throw snow a considerable distance away, preventing snow from piling up in unwanted areas. This dual-action mechanism allows for faster clearing times and less manual labor, as it effectively handles both light flurries and heavy, wet snow.

One notable feature is the push-button electric start, which eliminates the hassle of manual starting, especially in frigid temperatures. This convenience ensures that users can quickly power up the machine and begin their snow-clearing tasks without delay.

In terms of control, this model offers intuitive handling and customizable settings. The adjustable skid shoes allow users to modify the clearing height, ensuring effective operation on various surfaces, including driveways, sidewalks, and gravel. Additionally, the six-speed forward and two-speed reverse settings provide optimal maneuverability, allowing users to navigate tight spaces and tricky terrain with ease.

The snow thrower also features ergonomic handles with easy-grip controls, ensuring comfort during extended use. The built-in LED headlights enhance visibility in low-light conditions, allowing users to operate the machine safely during early morning or late evening snow removal.

Durability is a key characteristic of the Cub Cadet Two Stage Snow Thrower. Its solid construction, reinforced housing, and high-quality materials ensure that this equipment can withstand harsh winter conditions year after year. With comprehensive maintenance schedules and readily available customer support, owners can rest assured that their investment is protected.

In summary, the Cub Cadet Two Stage Snow Thrower combines power, innovation, and user-friendly features, making it a top choice for efficient snow removal. Its robust engine, two-stage system, and advanced technology make tackling winter weather more manageable than ever.
