Swing the left auger up making sure the cable is
routed correctly in the cable roller guides located
at the lower rear of the unit.
Hold the end of the cable at the barrel so the
ferrule turns freely without twisting the cable.
Thread the ferrule on to the Z fitting. You may
have to pull on the cable slightly to relieve
tension. Keep the ferrule turning without twisting
the cable.
You will reach correct adjustment when there is
minimal slack in the cable but itis not tight.Hold
the flats on the ferrule with pliers and tighten the
jam nut against the ferrule. CAUTION: Cables will
become loose ifyou do not tighten the jam nut.
WARNING: There must not be any tension
on either clutch cable with the drive or auger
clutch grip in the disengaged (up) position.
These clutches are a safety feature. Do not
override their function by allowing tension
on either cable with the clutches
disengaged.
