While separating the auger housing from the frame assembly, it is important that an assistant stand in the operating po si tion and hold the snow thrower han dles. Serious personal injury and/ or damage to the unit could occur if the snow thrower should fall during the belt chang ing process. 1. REMOVE GASOLINE FROM FUEL TANK - Drain gasoline from fuel tank into a suitable container, outdoors, away from fire or flame. Wipe up any spilled gasoline. 2. REMOVE DISCHARGE CHUTE - Loosen locknut se cur ing chute rotator head to mounting bracket only enough to allow chute rotator head to be raised and dis charge chute to be removed from snow thrower. 3. REMOVE BELT COVER - See “TO REMOVE BELT COVER” in this section of this manual. 4. REMOVE ENGINE PULLEY - Remove bolt, flat washer securing pulley to engine crankshaft. Remove outside (auger) pulley only from crank shaft. 5. SEPARATE SNOW THROWER - With your assistant standing in the operating position holding the handles, re move the two (2) bolts holding auger housing and frame together. WARNING: As the last bolt is removed, have your assistant carefully lower the han dles down to the ground. 6. REMOVE AUGER BELT from around pulley.

IMPORTANT: When installing wheel, be sure to use the innermost hole in axle and the wheel hub hole. To dis en gage drive system from the wheels (for pushing or trans port ing the snow thrower), remove klik pin from wheel hub and insert pin into the outermost hole in axle only. NOTE: To seal punctures or prevent flat tires due to slow leaks, tire sealant may be purchased from your local parts dealer. Tire sealant also prevents tire dry rot and cor ro sion. TO ADJUST CABLE TENSION (See Fig. 22) Adjust cable tension by turning the adjuster turn buckle, located on the right hand cable. Grasp the long section tightly and turn the short section to lengthen the adjuster. Adjust until cable is snug. ADJUSTER TURN BUCKLE FIG. 22 ENGINE SEE ENGINE MANUAL. CARBURETOR Your carburetor is not adjustable. Engine performance should not be affected at altitudes up to 2,134 meters. If your engine does not operate properly due to suspected carburetor problems, take your snow thrower to a service center/department. ENGINE SPEED Never tamper with the engine governor, which is factory set for proper engine speed. Overspeeding the engine above the factory high speed setting can be dangerous and will void the warranty. If you think the engine-governed high speed needs adjusting, contact a service center/department, which has the proper equipment and experience to make any necessary ad just ments. STORAGE Immediately prepare your snow thrower for storage at the end of the season or if the unit will not be used for 30 days or more. WARNING: Never store the snow thrower with gaso line in the tank in side a build ing where fumes may reach an open flame, spark or pilot light as on a fur nace, water heater, clothes dryer or gas ap pli ance. Allow the engine to cool be fore storing in any enclosure. SNOW THROWER When snow thrower is to be stored for a period of time, clean it thor oughly, re move all dirt, grease, leaves, etc. Store in a clean, dry area. 1. Clean entire snow thrower (See “CLEANING” in the Main te nance section of this manual). 2. Inspect and replace belts, if necessary (See “TO REPLACE BELTS” in the Service and Adjustments sec tion of this manual). 3. Lubricate as shown in the Main te nance sec tion of this man u al. 4. Be sure that all nuts, bolts, screws, and pins are securely fas tened. Inspect moving parts for damage, breakage and wear. Replace if nec es sary. 5. Touch up all rusted or chipped paint surfaces; sand lightly before painting. ENGINE See engine manual. FUEL SYS TEM IMPORTANT: It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming in essential fuel system parts such as carburetor, fuel hose, or tank during storage. Also, alcohol blended fuels (called gasohol or using ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture which leads to separation and formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of an engine while in storage. • Empty the fuel tank by starting the engine and letting it run until the fuel lines and car bu re tor are empty. • Never use engine or carburetor cleaner prod ucts in the fuel tank or permanent damage may occur. • Use fresh fuel next season. NOTE: Fuel stabilizer is an acceptable alternative in mini miz ing the formation of fuel gum deposits during stor age. Add stabilizer to gasoline in fuel tank or storage container. Always follow the mix ratio found on stabilizer container. Run engine at least 10 min utes after adding stabilizer to ...
