Drive Wheels
The wheels may be adjusted for two different methods
of operation. The adjustment is made by placing the
click pins in one of two different holes on the right side
of the unit. See Figure 16.
Inside Hole
in Axle
One Wheel Driving—Insert the click pin only
through the outside hole of the axle (not the rim) on
the right side of the snow thrower. This position
gives power drive to the left wheel only, making the
unit easier to maneuver.
Click Pin
in Outside Hole
Both Wheels Driving—Insert the click pin through
the hole in the hub of the rim and the inside hole on
the snow thrower’s right axle. This position is good
for heavy snow as there is power drive in both
wheels.
Figure 16
IMPORTANT: Never operate the snow thrower with the
click pin inserted through both the rim and the outside
hole in the axle. Doing so can result in serious damage
to the drive system.
SECTION 6: MAINTAINING YOUR SNOW THROWER
IMPORTANT: Keep all grease and oil off the rubber
friction wheel and aluminum drive plate.
