Replacing Belt

WARNING: Before servicing, repairing, or inspecting, disengage the control bail and stop engine. Wait until all moving parts have come to a complete stop. Disconnect spark plug wire and ground it against the engine to prevent unintended starting.

Remove the belt cover by removing five hex screws. See Figure 9. Then simply pull the belt off by grasping it from the bottom of the auger pulley and pulling off. Once you remove the belt from the pulleys, you can push down on the idler pulley to release the belt from under belt keeper. To replace the belt follow these instructions and refer to Figure 10:

1.Push down on the Idler pulley.

2.Put belt on top of the auger pulley under belt keeper.

3.Thread belt around engine pulley.

4.Push belt over bottom of auger pulley.

Reinstall the belt cover removed earlier.

Engine

1.Refer to the separate engine manual for all engine maintenance procedures.

2.Check engine and snow thrower frequently for loose hardware, and tighten as needed.

Lubrication

Lubricate pivot points on the control handle and the extension spring at the end of the control cable with a light oil once every season and before storage of the snow thrower at the end of the season.

Replacing Auger Paddles

The snow thrower auger’s rubber paddles are subject to wear and should be replaced if any signs of excessive wear is present.

IMPORTANT: Do NOT allow the auger’s rubber paddles to wear to the point where portions of the metal auger itself can come in contact with the pavement. Doing so can result in serious damage to your snow thrower.

To change the rubber paddles, proceed as follows:

1.Remove the existing rubber paddles by unthreading the self-tapping screws which secure them to the auger. See Figure 11.

2.Secure the replacement rubber paddles to the auger using the hardware removed earlier.
