Install Discharge Chute and
Discharge Chute Rod
(921017, 018)
(Figure 8, 9, 10 and 11)
1. Grease underside of discharge chute
ring (if not already greased).
2. Remove mounting hardware from auger
housing.
3. Install discharge chute over opening in
the auger housing. Finger tighten the
mounting hardware removed in step 2.
NOTE: Leave discharge chute pedestal loose
to help install the chute rod and connect it to
the control assembly.
4. Remove the cover from the gear
assembly on the discharge chute.
5. Release the lock teeth on the gear
assembly with your finger and rotate the
discharge chute 90
° left.
6. Remove and save the hairpin from the
control assembly underneath the control
panel.
NOTE: Do not remove the pin installed on the
chute rod.
NOTE: To ensure the discharge chute follows
its full range of travel, make sure the control
lever is pushed all the way to the left before
installing and pinning the chute rod.
7. Align the holes on the end of the chute
rod with the mark on the gear assembly
and slide the end without a pin through
the gear assembly, through the hook on
the chute lock cable and into the hex
hole in the control assembly.
IMPORTANT: The hook will prevent the
control cable from contacting the engine or
muffler guard.
NOTE: After the chute rod has been inserted
through the hex hole in the control assembly,
placing the unit in the service position (see
Service Position on page 24) will ease
alignment and installation of the hair pin.
8. Secure the chute rod to the control
assembly with the hair pin removed in
step 6 using the end hole location as
shown in Figure 10. Insert the hair pin
with the loop end to the left of the chute
rod so the control assembly follows a full
range of travel.
