ASSEMBLY

Attaching the Chute Assembly

Remove locknuts and screws securing one of the flange keepers to the chute assembly. See Figure 4.

Loosen but do not remove the locknuts and screws on the other two flange keepers.

Slide chute assembly over chute opening, making sure the flange keepers are beneath lip of chute adapter. The notches should engage with the spiral end of the chute crank. See Figure 5.

Secure flange keeper, locknuts and screws previously removed.

Tighten all flange keepers and hardware with two 7/16” wrenches. Do not over tighten.

NOTE: If necessary the chute crank support bracket can be adjusted so the spiral on the chute crank fully engages the teeth on the chute assembly. Refer to the Adjustment Section.

Attaching the Shift Rod

Align the upper and lower shift rods, then slide the shift rod connec- tor down over the end of the lower shift rod. Tap the connector until the lower rod is completely through the connector. See Figure 6.

NOTE: If the connector is not properly assembled, the shift rod will pivot and you will not be able to change speeds or direction.

NOTE: If the full range of speeds (forward and reverse) cannot be achieved, refer to the Adjustment Section.

• Normally the cable ties holding the steering cables against the handle are loosely installed on each side of the lower handle at the factory. Pull the cable ties tight to secure. Cut the excess from the ends of cable ties.

If not already attached, slip the cables that run from the handle panel to the discharge chute into the cable guide located on top of the engine. See Figure 4.

If not already attached, wrap the wire from the head lamp down the right handle until the wire can be plugged into the alternator lead wire under the fuel tank.

The extension cord is fastened with a cable tie to the rear of the auger housing for shipping purposes. Cut the cable tie and remove it before operating the snow thrower.
