•Unwrap the headlight wire which is attached to the headlight, beneath the handle panel. Wind the headlight wire around the right handle until excess slack is removed.

•Plug the wire from the headlight into the wire lead coming from the right side of the engine, beneath the fuel tank.

Final Adjustments

Auger Control Adjustment

Check the adjustment of the auger control as follows:

•Push forward on the auger control (Refer to Figure 7) until the small rubber bumper contacts the upper handle. There should be slack in the cable.

•Release the auger control. The cable should be straight. Make certain you can depress the auger control against the left handle completely.

If adjustment is necessary, proceed as follows:

•Loosen the jam nut and thread the cable in (for less slack) or out (for more slack) as necessary. See Figure 5.

•Recheck the adjustment before retightening the jam nut against the cable.

Skid Shoe Adjustment

The space between the shave plate and the ground can be adjusted by repositioning the skid shoes found on either side of the snow throwers auger housing. For close snow removal, place skid shoes in the low position. Use middle or high position when area to be cleared is uneven. See Figure 6.

IMPORTANT: It is NOT recommended that this snow thrower be operated on a gravel surface, as loose stones can be easily picked up and thrown by the machine. If you must operate on a gravel surface, ALWAYS adjust the skid shoes into the HIGH position to allow the shave plate maximum clearance.

Adjust skid shoes as follows:

•Loosen, but do NOT remove, the three hex nuts which fasten the skid shoe to the auger housing.

•Raise or lower the skid shoe to desired position.

NOTE: Make certain the entire base of both skid shoes is against the ground to avoid uneven wear on the skid shoes. When one side does wear out, the skid shoes are reversible.

•Retighten the hex nuts loosened earlier.

•Repeat this adjustment on the skid shoe found on the opposite side of the snow thrower.

Tire Pressure Adjustment

The tires are over-inflated for shipping purposes. Check tire pressure and reduce to between 15 psi and 20 psi.

NOTE: If the tire pressure is not equal in both tires, the unit may pull to one side or the other.
