Reinstall and securely tighten all carriage bolts, nuts and skid shoe hardware from Step 3 (Figure 53). 5. Readjust the skid shoes. See Skid Shoes on page 15. AUGER CONTROL WARNING Prior to operating, carefully read and follow all instructions below. Perform all adjustments to verify your snow blower is operating safely and properly. Refer to Controls & Operation section on page 20 for the location of auger control lever and check adjustment as follows: 1. When auger control lever is released and in disengaged "UP" position, the cable should have very little slack. It should NOT be tight. 2. In a well-ventilated area, start the engine. Refer to your Engine Operator's Manual. 3. While standing in the operator's position (behind the handles), depress the auger control lever to engage auger. 4. Allow auger to remain engaged for approximately ten (10) seconds before releasing auger control lever. Repeat this several times. 5. With auger control lever in disengaged "UP" position, walk to front of machine. 6. Confirm that auger has completely stopped rotating and shows NO signs of motion. If auger shows ANY signs of rotating, immediately shut OFF engine, remove safety key or disconnect spark plug wire. Wait for ALL moving parts to stop before readjusting auger control lever. 7. To readjust the auger control cable, loosen upper hex screw (a) (Figure 54). Figure 54 8. Position auger control bracket (b) upward to provide more slack in cable or downward to increase tension (Figure 54). 9. Re-tighten upper/rear hex screw (a). 10. Repeat the steps 1 - 6 to verify proper adjustment has been achieved. SHIFT CABLE (IF EQUIPPED) If full range of speeds (forward and reverse) cannot be achieved, adjust shift cable as follows: 1. Place shift lever in fastest forward speed position. 2. Loosen hex nut (a) on shift cable index bracket (b) (Figure 55). 3. Pivot bracket downward to take up slack in cable. 4. Re-tighten hex nut. 5. If further adjustment is necessary move the shift cable to one of the alternate holes in the shift cable index bracket. a b Figure 55 SHIFT ROD (IF EQUIPPED) If full range of speeds (forward and reverse) cannot be achieved, adjust shift rod as follows: 1. Place shift lever in fastest forward speed position. 2. Remove cotter pin (a) and washer (b) from adjustment ferrule on shift rod and pull it out from shift lever (Figure 56). 17
