Track Lock Lever
The track lock lever is located on the right side of the snow
thrower and is used to select the position of the auger
housing and the method of track operation.
To move the track lock lever, shut off the engine. Refer to the
engine operators manual. While standing on the right side of
the unit, place your left hand on the right handle grip. Apply
a light downward force to the right handle and use your
right hand to adjust the track lock lever to one of the four
positions.
Transport
Raises the snow thrower auger housing for easy transport.
Snow-covered Gravel
Raises the snow thrower auger housing so that its shave
plate leaves gravel undisturbed while clearing snow.
Normal Snow
Adjusts the tracks to be level, for full auger housing contact
with the ground.
Packed Snow
Locks the auger housing down to the ground for hard-packed or
icy snow conditions.
Chute Clean-out Tool
WARNING!
Never use your hands to clear a
clogged chute assembly. Shut off engine and remain
behind handles until all moving parts have stopped
before unclogging.
The chute clean-out tool is conveniently fastened to the rear of
the auger housing with a mounting clip. Should snow and ice
become lodged in the chute assembly during operation, proceed
as follows to safely clean the chute assembly and chute opening:
1. Release both the Auger Control Lever and the Drive Control
Lever.
2. SHUT THE ENGINE OFF! Refer to the Engine Operator's
Manual. Remove the safety key.
3. Remove the clean-out tool from the clip which secures it to
the rear of the auger housing.
4. Use the shovel-shaped end of the clean-out tool to
dislodge and scoop any snow and ice which has formed in
and near the chute assembly.
5. Refasten the clean-out tool to the mounting clip on the
rear of the auger housing, reinsert the safety key and start
the snow thrower's engine.
While standing in the operator's position (behind the snow
thrower), engage the auger control lever for a few seconds to
clear any remaining snow and ice from the chute assembly.
