ENGINE REFERENCE DATA 1 T able Of Contents SAFETY RULES General ...................................................................2 Preparation .............................................................2 Operation .................................
W ARNING This unit is a “two-stage” snowthrower. The first stage is the auger, which feeds the snow back into the impeller housing. The second stage is the impeller, which throws the snow out the dis- charge chute. If bodily contact is made with the auger or impeller when they are rotating, severe personal injury will occur.
3 Safety Rules OPERA TION • Keep hands and feet away from rotating parts. Keep clear of discharge opening at all times. • Always clear snow up and down the face of slopes, never across the face. Use extreme caution when changing direction on slopes.
4 SAFETY DECALS Safety warning decals are placed at strategic locations on the snowthrower as a constant reminder to the opera- tor of the most important safety precautions. All warning, caution and instructional messages on your snowthrow- er should be carefully read and obeyed.

6 ST ARTING CONTROLS Electric Start Units Only A. Electric Start Button - The Electric Start Button (A, Figure 3) activates an electric starter mounted to the engine, eliminating the need to pull the starter handle.
GROUND SPEED CONTROLS A. Speed Selector - This lever (A, Figures 4 & 5) is used to set the ground speed of the snowthrower. The snowthrower has five forward speeds, 1–5, and two reverse speeds, 1–2.
8 GENERAL OPERA TION CHECKS BEFORE EACH ST ART -UP 1. Make sure all safety guards are in place and all nuts, bolts and clips are secure. 2. Check the engine oil level. See your engine Owner’s Manual for procedure and specifications. 3. Check to make sure spark plug wire is attached and spark plug is tightened securely.
9 Operation ST ARTING THE ENGINE 1. Turn the fuel valve (B, Figure 6) to the ON position. 2. Insert the Engine Key (F, Figure 6) into the Engine Key slot and push fully in to the RUN position. 3. Move the Throttle Lever (E, Figure 6) fully up to the FAST position.
ENGINE SPEED For overall best performance, run the snowthrower at full engine operating speed. Use the engine Throttle Lever (See Figure 8) to set the engine speed.
11 Operation FREE-WHEELING AND TRACTION DRIVE LOCK For easy turning when pushing the snowthrower, you can disengage the traction drive at one or both wheels by using the Traction Lock Pins (See Figures 11 & 12.) 1. Turn the unit off, remove the Engine Key, and discon- nect the spark plug wire.
12 Regular Maintenance NORMAL CARE Check auger gear case lubrication.* Lubricate snowthrower . Check tire pressure. Change engine oil.** ✛ Clean or replace spark plug.
13 Regular Maintenance There are two grease fittings on the auger shaft (Figure 15). Wipe the fittings clean and apply grease, using a grease gun. Also apply grease on other points indicated. Apply medium weight (10W) oil to points shown(See Figures 14 - 16).
Service W ARNING Before performing any adjustment or service to snowthrower, stop the engine and wait for moving parts to stop. Remove the key. To prevent accidental starting, disconnect the spark plug wire and fasten away from the plug. 14 PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE REMEDY Engine fails to start.
15 Service PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE REMEDY Auger rotates, but snow is not thrown far enough 1. Chute deflector too low. 2. Engine speed too slow. 3. Ground speed too fast. 4. Snowthrower discharge chute clogged. 5. Auger belt loose or worn. 1. Adjust deflector as necessary.
16 SPEED SELECTOR PIVOT ADJUST- MENT The Speed Selector is factory set for optimal perfor- mance at each forward and reverse speed setting. However, if speed position 1 is too slow, the speed can be increased by changing the pivot position one turn.
17 Service Figure 19. Auger Drive Clutch Rod Adjustment Auger Drive Clutch Rod Auger Drive Clutch Rod Spring Adjustment Hex Nuts AUGER DRIVE CLUTCH ROD ADJUSTMENT The auger drive clutch rod should be adjusted so that there is no slack in the rod when moved slightly from side to side.
18 Service DRIVE BEL T ADJUSTMENT (Continued) If the auger drive slips (auger slows or doesn't rotate nor- mally while blowing snow), or stays engaged when the control is disengaged — and the auger clutch rod has been properly adjusted — the auger drive belt may be out of adjustment.
19 Service DRIVE BEL T ADJUSTMENT (Continued) Adjusting Auger Belt Guide 1. With the Auger Control still fully depressed, adjust the Auger Belt Guide so that there is a 1/64” gap (1/32” Maximum) between the end of the guide and the belt (Figure 22c), making certain the guide is NOT putting pressure on the belt.
20 Service DRIVE BEL T REPLACEMENT (Cont.) Auger Drive Belt Replacement 1. Remove gas from fuel tank and run engine until it stops running from lack of fuel. 2. Disconnect spark plug wire and fasten it away from the spark plug. 3. Remove belt cover (See Figure 21 on page 18).
21 Figure 27. Auger Bearings AUGER SHAFT BEARING REPLACEMENT If auger shaft bearings need replacement, proceed as follows: 1. Pry off the E-ring (Figure 27). 2. Remove the washers, then pull the bearing out of the housing and off the shaft. 3. Apply a coating of grease to inside diameter of bear- ings.
