Maintenance Schedule - Sears Craftsman 247.88755 Manual De Uso

Adjusting The Auger Cable
Periodic adjustment to the auger control cable may be required due
to normal stretch and wear on the belt. Adjustment is needed if the
augers seem to hesitate while turning, but the engine maintains speed,
or continue turning with the auger control disengaged.
1. Loosen the rear hex bolt on the cable adjustment bracket. See
Figure 20.
2. Slide the cable adjustment bracket backwards taking out the slack
in the auger cable.
3. Retighten the rear hex bolt
4. Start engine and verify auger control engages and disengages
properly.
NOTE: If auger continues to rotate with the control disengaged, shut
off the engine and readjust the cable bracket forward. Then recheck
the auger operation.
Follow the maintenance schedule given below. Some adjustments will have to be made periodically to maintain your unit
properly. Periodically check all fasteners and make sure these are tight. Keep track of your scheduled service by filling in
the Service Dates field below.
Before servicing, repairing, lubricating or inspecting, disengage all controls 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. Always wear safety glasses during operation or while
performing any adjustments or repairs.
