OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS – cont’d.
11. CAUTION: Always check to see that both ends of the PTO shaft are
securely attached as per instructions every time you are preparing to use the
snowblower.
12 When replacing bearings or tightening a loose bearing collar, always
tighten collar in the direction of shaft rotation using a center punch or a similar
tool.
13. Shear Sprocket: The shear sprocket (#43) should be checked at the beginning
of every season to make sure it will spin freely. With time the sprocket plate
could corrode and seize which will not allow the shear bolt to break if something
jams in the snowblower auger. Clean to loosen if necessary.
