SECTION 5: MAKING ADJUSTMENTS
WARNING: NEVER attempt to make any
adjustments while the engine is running,
except where specified in the operators
manual.
Chute Assembly Adjustment
The distance snow is thrown can be adjusted by
adjusting the angle of the chute assembly. Refer to the
Chute Tilt Control in the Know Your Snow Thrower
Section.
Traction Control Adjustment
Refer to the information found under Final Adjustment
in the Assembly Section to adjust the traction control. If
you are uncertain that you have reached the correct
adjustment, proceed as follows:
WARNING: Drain the gasoline out of the
snow throwers tank, or place a piece of
plastic film under the gas cap to avoid
spillage BEFORE making the adjustment.
Tip the snow thrower forward, allowing it to rest on
the auger housing.
Remove the frame cover underneath the snow
thrower by removing the six self-tapping screws.
With the traction control released, there must be
clearance between the friction wheel and the drive
plate in all positions of the shift lever.
With the traction control engaged, the friction wheel
must contact the drive plate. See Figure 8.
Figure 8
If adjustment is necessary:
Loosen the jam nut on the traction drive cable and
adjust the cable as necessary. Refer to Figure 5.
Retighten the jam nut to secure the cable when
correct adjustment is reached.
Reassemble the frame cover.
NOTE: If you placed plastic film under the gas cap, be
certain to remove it before operating the snow thrower.
Shift Rod Adjustment
To adjust the shift rod, proceed as follows:
Remove the hairpin clip and slide the shift rod
connector up, to separate the upper shift rod from
the lower shift rod. See Figure 9.
Figure 9
Place the shift lever into the sixth (6) position.
Rotate the shift arm clockwise (from the operators
position) as far as it will go.
Thread the upper shift rod downward until the
elbow on its lower end aligns with the hole found in
the lower shift rod.
Reconnect the upper shift rod to the lower shift rod
by reinserting the hairpin clip removed earlier and
sliding the shift rod connector back down into place.
IMPORTANT:
Make certain to check for correct
adjustment of the shift rod as instructed under Final
Adjustments in the Assembly Section, before operating
the snow thrower.
