6. Figure 5: Insert the rotation bushing
(item 1) in the snowblower's welded
retaining plate. Place the chute (item 2) on
the plate of the snowblower head and push
the chute towards the front to insert it in the
rotation bushing.
7. Figure 6: Install the retaining plate (item 2)
on the snowblower by bending each
bushing end (item 1) inside the retaining
plate. Align the vertical holes of the retaining
plate (item 2) with the oblong holes of the
snowblower. Secure in place with the two
5/8" x 1 1/2" bolts (item 3) and 5/8" serrated
flange nuts (item 4) previously removed. Do
not tighten.
8. Figure 6: Insert two 1/2" x 3 1/4" bolts
(item 5) to join together the two retaining
plates. Bring the two retaining plates closer.
When enough threads of the 1/2" x 3 1/4"
bolts (item 5) exceed the holes, screw in the
5/8" x 1 1/2" bolts (item 3) slightly. When
the bolt ends (item 5) exceed sufficiently,
secure with two 1/2" nylon insert nuts (item
6) until the two retaining plates are
approximately 1/4" apart.
9. Figure 6: Tighten the 1/2" x 3 1/4" bolts
(item 5) to reduce the gap between the
retaining plates until chute turns with a slight
resistance.
10. Figure 6: Tighten the two 5/8" x 1 1/2" bolts
(item 3) according to the "Torque
Specification Table" at the end of the
manual.
