SECTION 2: ASSEMBLING YOUR SNOW THROWER

Loose Parts

The augers are secured to the auger shaft with two

shear bolts and hex lock nuts. If you hit a foreign object

or ice jam, the snow thrower is designed so that the

bolts may shear. Two replacement shear bolts and nuts

are provided for your convenience. Store in a safe place

until needed. See Figure 1.

Figure 1

Assembly

WARNING: Disconnect spark plug wire

and ground it against the engine to prevent

unintended starting.

NOTE: All references to right or left side of the snow

thrower are determined from behind the unit in the

operating position. The “operator’s position” is defined

as standing directly behind the snow thrower, facing the

handle panel.

• Remove the lower two plastic wing knobs, cupped

washers and carriage bolt (eyebolt on the left side)

from the lower handle. See Figure 2.

Figure 2

• Raise the upper handle assembly until it locks over

the lower handle. See Figure 3.

• Observe the lower rear area of the snow thrower to

be sure both cables are aligned with roller guides.

• Secure the upper handle and lower handle with the

two plastic wing knobs, cupped washers and

carriage bolt (eyebolt on the left side) previously

removed. See Figure 3.

• Slide the connector down over the end of the lower

shift rod. See Figure 3. Tap the connector until it

locks on the lower shift rod.

If the connector is not properly assembled, the shift rod

will pivot and you will not be able to change speeds or

change directions.

• Thread the jam nuts all the way up each of the “Z”

fittings, toward the handle panel. See Figure 4.

Figure 4

• Make certain all cables are in the grooves of the

cable roller guides located in the lower rear of the

unit, one on each side.

• Thread the coupling end of the cable onto the

threaded portion of the “Z” fitting until the rubber

bumper (located on the underside of the control

lever) only lightly contacts the upper handle.
