SECTION 2: ASSEMBLING YOUR SNOW THROWER
Unpacking
• Remove screws from the top sides and ends of the
shipping crate.
• Set panel aside to avoid tire punctures or personal
injury.
• Remove and discard plastic bag that covers unit.
• Roll unit out of crate.
• Check crate thoroughly for loose parts before
discarding.
Loose Parts
• The snow thrower is shipped with following loose
parts in the carton. See Figure 1 for illustration,
description of item and part number. Please
remove all loose parts from the carton before
discarding it.
Figure 1
• Please note that these are replacement hardware
and not meant for initial assembly of the equipment.
If the snow thrower hits a foreign object or ice jam,
the bolts, securing the auger shaft, may shear. Use
these two shear bolts and nuts as replacement
then. Store these in a safe place until needed.
IMPORTANT:
NEVER replace the auger shear bolts with
standard hex bolts. Any damage to the auger gearbox
or other components from standard hex bolts will not be
covered by your snow thrower’s warranty.
Assembling Handle
NOTE: Reference to the left or right side of the snow
thrower in this manual is observed from the operator’s
position.
IMPORTANT:
Make any final adjustments as instructed
later on in this section before operating your snow
thrower. Failure to follow the instructions may cause
damage to the snowthrower.
• Remove the lower plastic wing nut, cupped washer
and carriage bolt from each side of the lower
handle. See Figure 2.
NOTE: On model 633E, remove the lower wing nut and
hardware from the right side of the handle only. The
wing nut for the left side is in place on the chute
directional control.
Figure 2
• One end of the chute directional control may be
attached to the lower handle with cable ties for
shipping purposes. If so, cut the cable ties and free
the loose end of the chute directional control.
• Raise the upper handle assembly in the direction
shown in Figure 2. Make sure that the upper handle
locks into position over the lower handle.
Figure 3
• Look at lower rear of snow thrower frame to be sure
all cables are aligned with cable roller guides.
