Before proceeding, read and follow all safety
rules.
1. Disconnect driveline from tractor PTO shaft.
2. Remove gearbox shield by removing thumb
screws.
3. Remove damaged bolt from yoke on input shaft of
snow blower gearbox.

Chain Maintenance
The auger chain should be inspected every 25 hours.
New chain has a tendency to stretch, so it is necessary
to check the chain tension to prevent flopping around,
thus causing potential problems. Chain tension is pre-
set at the factory. If chain becomes excessively loose,
it may be necessary to readjust the idler sprocket, Fig-
ure 9.
Figure 8. Drive Chain Lubrication
1. Apply grease to drive sprocket grease zerk (See
