the auger drive lever will not properly
en-
gage or disengage
the auger.
1. Remove the "Z" hook from the au-
ger drive lever (Figure 20).

up the auger control cable until the
cable boot does not cover any por-
tion of the cable adjustment brack-
et (Figure 21).
3. Pull the auger control cable
through the eyehole in the cable
adjustment bracket as shown by
the arrow in Figure 21. This will
create enough slack to allow the
"Z" hook to be easily removed.

available adjustment hole in the
cable adjustment
bracket.
This is
the adjustment hole located one
notch down from where the "Z"
hook was previously attached.

through the eyehole of the cable
adjustment bracket until all the
slack is taken out of the auger con-
trol cable.

Slide the cable boot back down
over the cable adjustment
brack-
et.
Install the "Z" hook to the auger
drive lever (Figure 20).
To check the adjustment, start the
snow thrower. Make sure the auger
does not rotate when the auger
drive lever is released. Engage the
auger drive lever and make sure
auger rotates. If the auger does not
rotate, repeat this "Adjust Auger
Control Cable" procedure.
