Maintaining
Your Snow
Thrower
WARNING
Always stop engine,
disconnect spark
plug, and ground
against engine before
cleaning, lubricating
or doing any kind
of maintenance or
adjustments on your
machine.
Augers
• The augers are secured to the spiral shaft with two
shear pins and cotter pins. If the auger should strike
a foreign object or ice jam, the snow thrower is
designed so that the pins may shear.
• If the augers will not turn, check to see if the pins
have sheared. One set of replacement shear pins
has been provided with the snow thrower. When
replacing pins, spray an oil lubricant into shaft before
inserting new pins.
