•Reassemble new skid shoes with the hardware earlier removed. Make sure to insert the cupped side of the washer against the skid shoe so that the skid shoe is adjusted to be level.
•To remove shave plate, remove the carriage bolts, belleville 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.
