2. Remove the wooden block from below the product. 3. Lift the handle to tilt the rear section up. The front section will tilt back and pivot to attach the rear section. 4. Make sure that the belt is put in the auger pulley groove correctly. 5. Install the 5/16'' bolts (A), (C) and tighten (8-12 Ft.Lbs / 11-16 Nm). A C B 3. Adjust until the cable for the discharge chute deflector (C) has a tight fit. Tighten the jam nuts. To adjust the auger control cable Note: If you do not feel comfortable making this adjustment yourself, please contact an authorized service center. Adjustments can be needed if the impeller and auger rotation is sluggish when engaging the auger control lever, or if the auger belt has been replaced. 1. Loosen the jam nuts (B) next to the turn buckle (A) to adjust the cable tension in the auger control cable (D). AB D 6. Install the ¼'' bolts (B) and tighten (4-6 Ft.Lbs / 5-8 Nm). 7. Install the auger belt on the engine pulley. Make sure that the belt is put correctly around the idler pulley and installed correctly in the engine pulley groove. 8. Operate all controls to make sure that the auger belt is installed correctly and that all components are moving correctly. To adjust the tension of the cable for the discharge chute deflector 1. Loosen the jam nuts (B) to adjust the tension of the cable for the discharge chute adjacent to the adjuster turnbuckle (A). AB C 2. Hold the short section and turn the long section. Turn it 360 degrees. 3. Test the auger engagement. Repeat the adjustment until only a small amount of tension remains in the cable when the lever is disengaged. 4. Tighten the bottom jam nut to lock in the tension. 5. Ask an assistant to stand 10 feet / 3 meters in front of the product, on the opposite side of the chute. The assistant observes the rotation of the auger and measures the time it takes for the auger to stop rotating after the lever is released. If the auger stops rotating after 5 seconds, adjust the cable by rotating the center barrel 360 degrees, to contract the adjuster. Test the auger engagement and measure the stop time again. If the auger stops rotating in less than 5 seconds, continue with the next step. 6. Tighten the jam nut on the auger cable. Note: If the adjustment does not resolve the problem, replace the auger belt. See To remove the auger belt on page 19. To remove the wheels 1. Remove the wheel pin (A) and the retainer pin (B). 2.
