(See “TO REMOVE WHEELS”   in the Service and Adjustments section of this manual).   AUGER GEAR CASE   • The gear case was filled with lubricant to the proper   level at the factory. The only time the lubricant needs   attention is if service has been performed on the gear   case.   1. Disconnect spark plug wire from spark plug and place   wire where it cannot come in contact with spark plug.   2. Clean area around drain plug.   • If lubricant is required, use only Ronex ED #1 grease.   3. Remove drain plug and drain oil in a suitable container.   4. Install drain plug and tighten securely.   TRACTION DRIVE SYSTEM   5. Wipe off any spilled oil from snow thrower and engine.   DO NOT lubricate the drive components inside the snow   thrower. The sprockets, hex shafts, drive disc and friction   wheel require no lubrication. The bearings and bushings   are lifetime lubricated and require no maintenance.   6. Install left wheel (if removed for draining oil).Be sure to   install klick pin into proper hole in wheel axle (See “TO   REMOVE WHEELS” in the Service and Adjustments   section of this manual).   CAUTION:Anylubricatingoftheabovecompo-   nents can cause contamination of the friction   wheel and damage to the drive system of your   snow thrower.   7. Remove oil fill cap/dipstick. Be careful not to allow dirt   to enter the engine.   8. Refill engine with oil through oil dipstick tube. Pour   slowly. Do not overfill. For approximate capacity see   “PRODUCTSPECIFICATIONS”sectionofthismanual.   ENGINE   See engine manual.   9. Use gauge on oil fill cap/dipstick for checking level. Be   sure dipstick cap is tightened securely for accurate   reading. Keep oil at “FULL” line on dipstick.   LUBRICATION   10. Wipe off any spilled oil.   Use only high quality detergent oil rated with API service   classification SF-SJ. Select the oil's SAE viscosity grade   according to your expected operating temperature.   MUFFLER   Inspect and replace corroded muffler as it could create a   fire hazard and/or damage.   NOTE: Although multi-viscosity oils (5W30, 10W30 etc.)   improve starting in cold weather, these multi-viscosity oils   will result in increased oil consumption when used above   32°F. Check your engine oil level more frequently to avoid   possible engine damage from running low on oil.   SPARK PLUG   Replacesparkplugatthebeginningofeachseasonorafter   every100hoursofoperation, whicheveroccursfirst. Spark   plug type and gap setting are shown in the “PRODUCT   SPECIFICATIONS” section of this manual.   Change the oil after every 50 hours of operation or at least   once a year if the snow thrower is not used for 50 hours   in one year.   CLEANING   IMPORTANT: For best performance, keep snow thrower   housing free of any dirt or trash. Clean the outside of your   snow thrower after each use.   WARNING: Disconnectsparkplugwire   from spark plug and place wire where it   cannotcomeincontactwithsparkplug.   • • Keepfinishedsurfaces/wheelsfreeofgasoline, oil, etc.   We do not recommend using a garden hose to clean   yoursnowthrowerunlesstheelectricalsystem, muffler   and carburetor are covered to keep water out.
