5.Rotate the chute control crank (Z, Fig. 2-6). The deflector chute should turn freely. Adjust the worm gear assembly bracket (L, Fig. 2-4) as necessary to prevent binding.
H. Attach Auger Drive Control Rod
1.Remove the plastic cable tie that secures the auger drive control arm (AD, Fig. 2-8) to the transmission shift arm (AB).
2.The auger drive control rod (AA, Fig.
2-8) has been pre-adjusted at the factory. To avoid misadjustment, do not rotate the jam nut (AT, Fig. 2-8) while completing the following steps.
3.Hold the jam nut (AT) in place with a 7/16" wrench and use another 7/16" wrench to thread the adjusting thimble (AS) downward a total of 12 turns.
4.Raise auger drive control handle (X, Fig. 2-6) all the way up. Then hook the spring (AC, Fig. 2-8) at the lower end of the auger drive control rod (AA) into the hole in the auger drive control arm (AD).
5.Thread the adjusting thimble (AS, Fig. 2-8) upward until it contacts the jam nut (AT). Using two wrenches, tighten the jam nut against the adjusting thimble. When the engine is started, as described in the “Operation” section, you will be given a functional check to make sure the auger drive control rod is properly adjusted.
