OF CALIFORNIA AND SEVERAL OTHER STATES

Auger Drive Control Lever

Under California law, and under the laws of several other states,

you are not permitted to operate an internal combustion engine

using hydrocarbon fuels on any forest, brush, hay, grain, or

grass covered land; or land covered by any flammable agricul-

tural crop without an engine spark arrester in continuous effec-

tive working order.

Discharge Chute

Chute Deflector Cap

The engine on the unit is an internal combustion engine which

burns gasoline, a hydrocarbon fuel, and must be equipped with a

spark arrester muffler in continuous effective working order. The

spark arrester must be attached to the engine exhaust system in

such a manner that flames or heat from the system will not ignite

flammable material. Failure of the owner/operator of the unit to

comply with this regulation is a misdemeanor under California

law (and other states) and may also be a violation of other state

and/or federal regulations, laws, ordinances or codes. Contact

your local fire marshal or forest service for specific information

about which regulations apply in your area.

Section 1: Safety

b. The 120V A.C. starter is equipped

with a three-wire power cord and

plug and is designed to operate on

120V A.C. household current. The

starter must be properly grounded

at all times to avoid the possibility

of injury or death from electrical

shock. Determine that your house

wiring is a Ground Fault Interrupted

(G.F.I.) three-wire grounded sys-

tem, or ask a licensed electrician if

you are not sure. If your house

wiring system is not a G.F.I. three-

wire grounded system, DO NOT use

the electric starter under any condi-

tion. If your house wiring system is

grounded but a G.F.I. three-prong

wall receptacle is not available at

the location your starter will be

used, one should be installed by a

licensed electrician.

11. Stop the engine and disconnect the

spark plug wire whenever you leave

the operating position, before unclog-

ging the collector (auger/impeller)

housing or discharge chute, and when

making any repairs, adjustments, or

inspections. Use only a wooden stick

(at least 3 feet long) to clear away any

blockage.

Operation

1. The operator of the unit is responsible

for the safety of all persons in the op-

erating zone of the unit.

2. Before starting the unit, disconnect

the spark plug wire and check the col-

lector (auger/impeller) housing and

discharge chute to make sure they are

free of ice.

12. When cleaning, repairing, or inspect-

ing, make certain the auger, impeller

and all moving parts have stopped.

Disconnect the spark plug wire from

the spark plug and secure the wire

away from the spark plug.

ments and other potentially danger-

ous terrain. Deep snow can hide ob-

stacles and drop-offs.

e. Connect the cord to the electric

starter first, and then plug the cord

into a properly grounded outlet

(this lessens the chances of sparks

from occurring near the engine).

7. Keep hands, other body parts, and

clothing away from any moving or ro-

tating parts. Keep clear of the intake

9/16" – 11/16" (14–17mm) longer than the

measurement taken in Step 4. If it does

not, loosen the jam nut (AM, Figure 5-8)

and turn the adjuster (AN) to increase or

decrease the length of the spring. Hold

the adjuster and tighten the jam nut (AM)

when the correct spring length is ob-

tained. Re-check the measurements and

adjust if needed.

GEAR SHIFT ROD ADJUSTMENT DRIVE DISC CLEARANCE

ADJUSTMENT

If the gear shift rod lever does not move

freely through all the gear positions, ad-

just clearance (AY, Figure 5-9) as follows:

1. With the engine stopped and the spark

plug wire disconnected, move the gear

shift lever (AU, Figure 5-7) to position

No. 5. Remove the hairpin cotter and

the flat washer from the pivot block (N,

Figure 5-10). Disconnect the pivot

block (N) from the gear shift lever plate

(AV, Figure 5-10).

1. With the engine stopped and the spark

plug wire disconnected, loosen jam nut

(AW, Figure 5-8). Rotate adjusting

screw (AX) until rubber drive wheel (T,

Figure 5-9) contacts metal drive disc

(U).

2. Pull the gear shift control rod (AA,

Figure 5-8) down completely.

NOTE: 1-1/4 turns of the adjuster equals

1/16" (1.5mm) of spring extension.

3. While holding the gear shift control rod

(AA, Figure 5-8) down, loosen the jam

nut (ZZ, Figure 5-10) and thread the

pivot block (N) up or down as needed

so it fits into the hole in the gear shift

lever plate (AV, Figure 5-10).

2. Turn the rubber drive wheel (T, Figure

5-9) and the metal drive disc (U) to

find the point of minimum clearance

(AY). (This is where both the drive

wheel [T] and metal disc [U] are

touching.)

4. Reinstall the pivot block (N, Figure 5-

10) into the gear shift control lever hole

and secure with the washer and hairpin

cotter. Secure the jam nut (ZZ, Figure

5-10) against the pivot block (N).

3. Adjust the discs at the point of mini-

mum clearance. Loosen adjusting

screw (AX, Figure 5-8) 1/2 turn.

Secure the adjusting screw (AX) in

place, while tightening the jam nut

(AW).

5. Move the gear shift control lever (AU,

Figure 5-7) through the full range of

travel. Check for binding. Refer to the

Drive Disc Clearance Adjustment

instructions, if needed.

4. Check the clearance (AY, Figure 5-9)

by moving gear shift lever (AU, Figure

5-7) through all positions. Repeat

Step 3 as necessary.

BRAKE ARM ADJUSTMENT

The brake arm adjustment is set at the

factory to 1/16 - 1/8" for proper belt/brake

clearance. Due to wear, this may need

adjustment.

Section 5: Maintenance

WARNING

Before inspecting, cleaning or servicing the machine, shut off engine, wait for all moving parts to come to

a complete stop, disconnect spark plug wire and move wire away from spark plug.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in serious personal injury or property damage.

Figure 5-10

Figure 5-12

To adjust brake arm:

1/16" - 1/8"

1.5 - 3 mm

Figure 5-11

1. With engine stopped and spark plug

wire disconnected, remove screws and

washers (AB, Figure 5-1) and remove

belt cover from unit.

OFF-SEASON STORAGE

When storing the unit for more than 90

days, follow these procedures to help keep

the unit in good condition for future use:

blade (adjust both skid shoes equally

to prevent uneven snow removal).

2. Squeeze the auger drive control lever

(AL, Figure 5-7) against handlebar.

•

Clean dirt, grime and grease from the

unit and engine.

4. Tighten the hardware to lock the

skid shoes (M, Figure 5-12) into the

proper position.

3. Using a flashlight, look down through

the pulleys and belts (Figure 5-6).

Check gap between brake arm (A,

Figure 5-11) and belt (B). The gap

should measure between 1/16" and

1/8" (1.5–3 mm).

Perform routine lubrication as in-

structed earlier in this section.

Service the engine according to the

Storage instructions in the engine

manual. Add a fuel stabilizer to the

fuel tank, according to the instructions

provided with the stabilizer. Change

the engine oil.

5. The scraper blade (N, Figure 5-12) can

also be adjusted. Adjust scraper blade

(N) at carriage bolts. Adjust bottom

edge of scraper blade so it is parallel

with bottom edge of auger.

4. To adjust gap: Loosen nut (C, Figure

5-11). Hold bolt (D) in place and rotate

nut (E) until proper clearance is ob-

tained. Secure nut (C).

SLIP DIFFERENTIAL

ADJUSTMENT

1. With the engine stopped and the spark

plug wire disconnected, remove hub

cap (AQ, Figure 5-13) at end of wheel

shaft on right side of unit.

•

On units so equipped, rotate the fuel

shut-off valve to the “OFF” position.

Thoroughly inspect the unit for any

loose, damaged, or missing parts.

Repair or replace the parts as neces-

sary. Check all nuts, bolts and other

fasteners for tightness and tighten as

necessary.

5. Reinstall the belt cover.

SKID SHOES/SCRAPER BLADE

The unit should be adjusted so the collec-

tor (auger/impeller) housing and the

scraper blade (N, Figure 5-12) are 1/8" (3

mm) above the surface to be cleared. If

the unit is used to clear gravel or uneven

surfaces, this adjustment should be in-

creased so gravel or other foreign objects

are not scooped into the auger. To adjust

the collector housing/scraper blade height:

2. Remove outer (AR, Figure 5-13) and

inner jam nuts (AS) and both pairs

(four single disc springs) of disc

springs (AT). Inspect springs and re-

place them if they are worn.

•

Touch-up scratches and chipped paint

to prevent corrosion.

Store the unit on a level surface, out of

the reach of children.

3. Reinstall disc springs (AT, Figure 5-

13) and inner jam nut (AS). Tighten

jam nut (AS) by hand until it contacts

the disc spring, then tighten (AS) 1 to

1-1/4 turns more. DO NOT force nut

more than 1-1/4 turns or differential

will not work (unit will be difficult to

turn).

1. Move the unit onto a level surface.

2. With the engine stopped and the spark

plug wire disconnected, loosen the

hardware securing the skid shoes (M,

Figure 5-12).

4. Secure the inner nut (AS, Figure 5-13)

in place, while tightening the outer nut

(AR).

3. Adjust skid shoes until they are in the

correct position to support collector

(auger/impeller) housing and scraper

AT AS

5. Reinstall cover (AQ, Figure 5-13).
