Skid Shoe
The space between the shave plate and the ground can
be adjusted by raising or lowering the skid shoes.
For close snow removal, as when using on a smooth
concrete or asphalt driveway, place the skid shoes in
the low position. Use the middle or high position when
the area to be cleared is uneven. When operating on
gravel, always put skid shoes in the high position.
See Figure 11. Adjust skid shoes as follows:
•Loosen, but do not remove, the three hex nuts
which fasten the skid shoe to the auger housing.
•Raise or lower the skid shoe to desired position.
•Retighten the hex nuts loosened earlier.
•Repeat on the other side of the snow thrower.
Figure 11
NOTE: Make certain the bottom surface of skid shoe is
flat against the ground to avoid uneven wear .
Auger Control
Refer to Auger Control Test on page 6 to adjust the auger
control. Make certain to check for correct adjustment
as instructed before operating the snow thrower.
Chute Assembly
•The distance snow is thrown can be adjusted by
adjusting the angle of the chute assembly. Refer to
page 8 for instrcutions.
•The remote chute control cables have been pre-
adjusted at the factory. Move the remote chute
lever on the control panel back and forward to
adjust angle of the chute assembly.
Drive Wheels
•The wheels may be adjusted for two different
methods of operation. Follow the steps below for
adjustment. See Figure 12.

One Wheel Driving

•On the right side of the unit, place klick pin in the
outside axle hole only. Do not place pin through
wheel hub.This position gives power drive to the left
wheel only, making the unit easier to maneuver.

Both Wheels Driving

•Rotate wheel assembly to align hole in the hub with
the inner hole on the axle shaft. Insert klick pin in
the hole. Outer axle shaft hole should be visible.
Figure 12
NOTE: NEVER operate the snow thrower with the click
pin inserted through both the RIM and the OUTSIDE
HOLE in the axle. Doing so can result in serious
damage to the drive system.
