Servicing Your Snow Thrower, Engine, Augers

There is a grease fitting on the top of the axle shaft which drives the rear track drive wheels on both sides of the unit. Grease these fittings every 25 hours or once a season.

Traction Control / Auger Control Lock

The cams on the ends of the control rods which

interlock the traction drive and auger drive controls must be lubricated at least once a season or every 25 hours of operation. The cams can be accessed beneath the handle panel. Use a multi-purpose automotive grease.

SECTION 7: SERVICING YOUR SNOW THROWER

WARNING: Before servicing, repairing, or inspecting, disengage all clutch levers and stop engine. Wait until all moving parts have come to a complete stop. Disconnect spark plug wire and ground it against the engine to prevent unintended starting.

Engine

Refer to the separate engine manual packed with your unit for all engine maintenance procedures.

Augers

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

Refer to Figure 11.

•If the augers will not turn, check to see if the bolts have sheared. Replacement shear bolts and hex lock nuts have been provided with the snow thrower. When replacing bolts, spray an oil lubricant into shaft before inserting new bolts.

IMPORTANT:NEVER replace the auger shear bolts with standard hex bolts. Any damage to the auger gearbox or other components as a result of doing so will NOT be covered by your snow thrower’s warranty.

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 the skid shoes, proceed as follows:

•Remove the six carriage bolts, bell washers, and hex nuts which attach them to the snow thrower.

•Reassemble new skid shoes with the six carriage bolts, bell washers (cupped side goes against skid

shoes) and hex nuts. Make certain the skid shoes are adjusted to be level.

To remove shave plate, remove the carriage bolts, bell washers, and hex nuts which attach it to the snow thrower housing. Reassemble new shave plate, making sure heads of the carriage bolts are to the inside of the housing. Tighten securely.

Belt Removal And Replacement

Auger Belts

•Remove the plastic belt cover at the front of the engine by removing the two self-tapping screws. See Figure 12.

•Drain the gasoline from the snow thrower, or place a piece of plastic film under the gas cap.

•Tip the snow thrower up and forward so that it rests on its auger housing.

Self-Tapping

Screw

Belt Cover

Figure 12

•Remove the six self-tapping screws from the frame cover underneath the snow thrower.

•Roll the front and rear auger belts off the auger drive pulley. See Figure 13.

•Unhook the idler spring from the hex bolt on the auger housing. See Figure 13.

•Back out the stop bolt until the support bracket rests on the auger pulley.

NOTE: Loosening the six nuts that connect the frame to the auger housing may aid in belt removal.

•Lift the rear auger belt from the auger pulley, and slip the belt between the support bracket and the auger pulley. Repeat this step for the front auger belt.

•Replace both auger drive belts by following instructions in reverse order.

•If you placed plastic film under the gas cap, be certain to remove it before operating the snow thrower
