handle. There should be slack in the cable. See
Figure 5.
Auger Control Cable
•
Release the auger control. The cable should be
straight. Make certain you can depress the auger
control against the left handle completely without
using excess force.
Figure 5
•
Loosen the jam nut on the traction control cable
(located opposite the auger control cable) and
UNTHREAD the cable one full turn.
Recheck the adjustment.
Retighten the jam nut to secure the cable when the
correct adjustment is reached.
If adjustment is necessary, proceed as follows:
•
•
•
Loosen the jam nut and thread the cable in (for less
slack) or out (for more slack) as necessary. See
Figure 5.
If the machine can be moved freely both forward and
rearward with the traction control fully depressed,
proceed as follows:
•
Recheck the adjustment before retightening the
jam nut against the cable.
Traction Control and Shift Lever Adjustment
To check the adjustment of the traction control and shift
lever, proceed as follows:
•
•
•
Loosen the jam nut on the traction drive cable and
THREAD the cable in one full turn.
Recheck the adjustment and repeat the adjustment
as necessary.
Retighten the jam nut to secure the cable when the
correct adjustment is reached.
•
Move the shift lever into the sixth (6) position.
a. With the traction control (see Figure 7)
released, push the snow thrower forward,
then pull it back. Disregarding the overall
weight of the snow thrower, the machine
should otherwise move freely.
b. Engage the traction control, and attempt to
move the machine both forward and
rearward. You should experience resistance
as the wheels should not be turning.
NOTE: If you are uncertain that you have reached the
correct adjustment, refer to the Traction Control
Adjustment in Section 6 of this manual.
Skid Shoe Adjustment
The space between the shave plate and the ground can
be adjusted by repositioning the skid shoes found on
either side of the snow throwers auger housing. For
smooth surface snow removal such as on an asphalt
driveway, place the skid shoes in a lower position. Use
a higher position when the area to be cleared is
uneven. See Figure 6.
•
Move the shift lever into the fast reverse (R2)
position and repeat the previous steps (a & b).
If you experienced resistance either when repositioning
the shift lever (see Figure 7) from position 6 to R2 or
when attempting to move the machine forward or
rearward with the traction control released, your snow
thrower’s traction control is in need of adjustment and
you should NOT operate the snow thrower before
completing the adjustment as follows:
IMPORTANT: When operating your snow thrower on a
gravel driveway, ALWAYS adjust the skid shoes into
the HIGHEST position.
