length of spring (W, Fig. 5-6) again.
The spring length should now measure
5/8" – 3/4" (15–19mm) longer than the
measurement taken in step 2. If it
does not, loosen jam nut (Y, Fig. 5-6)
and turn adjuster (Z, Fig. 5-6) to
increase or decrease the spring length.
(1-1/4 turns of the adjuster equals
1/16" [1.5mm] of spring extension.)
Hold the adjuster and tighten the jam
nut (Y) when the correct spring length
is obtained. Re-check measurements
and adjust if needed.
If after completing this adjustment the
wheels do not drive adequately, refer
to “Drive Disc Clearance Adjustment”
on page 25. Then repeat this
adjustment.
Wheel Drive Belt Replacement

adjustment (above).
6. Reinstall the belt cover and bolts.
Shear Bolts
Special shear bolts (C, Fig. 5-7) secure the
augers to auger shaft and are designed to
break (shear) if the auger jams. This
prevents damage to other, more vital
parts. Inspect the shear bolts before each
use and replace them if they are worn or
broken.
Torque shear bolts to 11 ft-lbs (15 Nm).
