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.

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 6.
