Step 7 – Skid shoes installation and adjustments
1. Locate the set of skid shoes from parts bag and remove the bolts.
2. Loosely install the skid shoes using the bolts and hex nuts as shown on each side of the auger housing.
Make sure the skid shoe tip faces out.
Adjustment of the skid shoes sets the height above the ground at which the auger shave plate operates.
For clearing snow from concrete, asphalt, and other smooth surfaces, set the auger shave plate so that the
bottom of the plate is just above the ground.
For clearing snow from gravel, dirt, and other rough surfaces set the auger shave plate slightly above the
ground to avoid dirt and gravel from entering the auger.
The optimal height of the plate will vary depending on the type of surface being cleared. Surfaces with
larger gravel or stones require a higher shave plate setting.
3. Move the snow thrower to a solid, smooth, and level surface.
4. Place a spacer board on the ground underneath the auger shave plate between the skid shoes. The
thickness of the board should be the same as the height above the ground you wish to raise the auger
shave plate. The skid shoes should not touch the board.
5. With the two nuts loose allow the skid shoe to slide to the ground then tighten the nuts to secure the
skid shoe.
