2.Route the left cable between engine and speed selector plate and then between handle panel and clutch lever pivot rod before threading onto the left “Z” fitting. Assemble the right cable using the same route.

3.Correct adjustment on cables is minimal slack but not tight. Tighten hex nuts when adjustment is correct.

NOTE: If the right hand lockout cable is not adjusted correctly, the wheels will tend to turn. If the left hand lockout cable is not adjusted correctly, the augers will not stop rotating.

WARNING: There must not be any tension on either clutch cable with the drive or auger clutch grip in the disengaged (up) position. These clutches are a safety feature, and their function can be overridden if there is tension on either cable with the clutches disengaged.

ATTACHING THE CHUTE ASSEMBLY (Hardware E)

1.Place chute assembly over chute opening, with the opening in the chute assembly facing the front of the unit. Place chute flange keepers beneath lip of chute assembly, with the flat side of chute flange keeper facing downward.

2.Insert hex bolt (K) up through chute flange keeper and chute assembly as shown in Figure 7. Secure with hex lock nut (M). After assembling all three chute flange keepers, tighten all nuts and bolts securely. Do not overtighten.
