2.To adjust, loosen nut (D) by holding the adjusting flats (A) and turning nut (D). Turn adjustment flats and hold screw. The adjustment screw (E) is a phillips screw and the head can be held or turned by inserting a screwdriver through the spring (F).

3.Hold adjusting flats (A) and tighten nut (D).

4.Start unit and check auger. Auger must not be engaged unless auger control is depressed.

WARNING

Do not over-tighten, as this may cause traction drive to engage without depressing the traction drive control (arm must remain in up position).

Verify that the cables are not over-tightened: With speed selector in position 1 and traction drive control fully released, push snowthrower forward. The unit should move forward freely.

If unit does not move forward freely, the cable has been over-tightened. To remedy, loosen tension on clutch cable slightly, and recheck.

TRACTION DRIVE ADJUSTMENT

Initial Adjustment

1.With the drive lever released there should be slack in the cable when moved slightly from side to side.

2.To adjust tension on the cable slide the cable boot (A, Figure 21) off the cable adjustment bracket (D).

3.Move the “Z” hook (C) from the cable adjustment bracket (D) to a different adjustment hole. The cable should have slack. The cable should have no tension or load.

Note: If the cable is too slack the unit will not drive. If the cable is too tight the drive will be engaged without pushing the handle down.

4.Slide the cable boot (A) over the cable adjustment bracket.
