2.Remove the plastic belt cover, located near the engine, by removing the three self-tapping screws that secure it. See Figure 6-4.

3.a. Loosen the bolt shown in Figure 6-5 securing the

belt keeper bracket and remove the other bolt.

b.Push the belt keeper and bracket up off the engine pulley. See Figure 6-5.

Auger Belt

4.Remove the clip and flat washer from the ferrule in order to disconnect the auger idler rod from the brake bracket assembly. See Figure 6-6.

5.Slip the auger belt (the front belt) off the engine pulley.

6.Pull the brake bracket assembly towards the cable guide roller and unhook the auger cable “Z” fitting. See Figure 6-7.

7.From both sides of the the frame assembly, use a 1/2” wrench to remove the three hex tap screws securing the frame to the auger housing assembly. See Figure 6-8.

NOTE: Do not remove the lower hex flange lock nut on each side.

Maintaining

Your Snow

Thrower

IMPORTANT

NEVER replace the auger shear pins with standard pins. Any damage to the auger gearbox or other com- ponents, as a result of doing so, will NOT be covered by your snow thrower’s warranty.

Check the condition of both auger belt and drive belt every 25 hours of snow thrower operation. Replace if either shows signs of wear and tear.
