WARNING!
Before Servicing,
repairing
or
inspecting
the snow thrower,
disengage
the auger
control. Stop the engine and remove
the key to
prevent
unintended
starting.
To check the adjustment
of the shave plate, place the
machine
on a level surface. The wheels, shave plate and
augers should all contact
level surface. Note that if the
shave plate is adjusted
too high, snow may blow under the
housing.
If the shave plate wears out excessively,
or the
unit does not self-propel,
the shave plate may be too low
and needs to be adjusted.
NOTE: On new machines
or machines with a new shave
plate installed,
the augers may be slightly
off the ground.
To adjust, tip the snow thrower
back so that it rests on the
handle. Loosen the four lock nuts and bolts which secure
the shave plate to the housing.
See Fig. 6-1. Move the shave
plate to desired position
and retighten
the nuts and bolts
securely.

Control Cable
As a result of both the control
cable and the auger drive belt
stretching
due to wear, periodic
adjustments
may be necessary.
If the auger seems to hesitate
when rotating,
proceed
as follows:
The upper hole in the control
handle
provides
for an adjustment
in cable tension.
To adjust,
disconnect
the end of control
cable
from the bottom
hole in the control
handle and reinsert
it in the
upper hole. Insert the cable from the outside
as shown
in Fig. 6-2.
Test the snow thrower
to see if there is a noticeable
difference.
