IMPORTANT:
Do NOT allow the
auger’s rubber paddles
to wear to the point
where portions of the
metal auger itself can
come in contact with
the pavement. Doing
so can result in serious
damage to your snow
thrower.
Remove the belt cover by removing five hex screws. See
Figure 6-3. Then simply pull the belt off by grasping it from
the bottom of the auger pulley and pulling off. Once you
remove the belt from the pulleys, you can push down on the
idler pulley to release the belt from under the belt keeper.
To replace the belt follow these instructions and refer to
Figure 6-4:
1. Push down on the Idler pulley.
2. Put belt on top of the auger pulley, under belt keeper.
3. Thread belt around engine pulley.
4. Push belt over bottom of auger pulley.
Reinstall the belt cover removed earlier.
Replacing Auger Paddles
The snow thrower auger’s rubber paddles are subject to
wear and should be replaced if any signs of excessive
wear is present.
IMPORTANT: Do NOT allow the auger’s rubber paddles
to wear to the point where portions of the metal auger
itself can come in contact with the pavement. Doing so
can result in serious damage to your snow thrower.
To change the rubber paddles, proceed as follows:
1. Remove the existing rubber paddles by unscrewing the
self-tapping screws which secure them to the auger.
See Figure 6-5.
2. Secure the replacement rubber paddles to the auger
using the hardware removed earlier.
