which attach the auger housing assembly to the
frame assembly. See Figure 26.
WARNING: Do not attempt to change the
auger belt without the help of an assistant. It
is very important that one person, standing
at the operating position, firmly hold the
snow thrower housing to prevent it from
tipping while the other person replaces the
belt. Failure to comply with this may result in
injury.
