Chute Clean-Out Tool The chute clean-out tool is fastened to the top of the auger housing with a mounting clip and a cable tie at the factory. Cut the cable tie before operating the snow thrower. See Figure 3-12. Chute Clean-out Tool Adjustments Skid Shoes The snow thrower skid shoes are adjusted upward at the factory for shipping purposes. Adjust them downward, if desired, prior to operating the snow thrower. CAUTION: It is not recommended that you operate this snow thrower on gravel as it can easily pick up and throw loose gravel, causing personal injury or damage to the snow thrower and surrounding property. • For close snow removal on a smooth surface, raise skid shoes higher on the auger housing. • Use a middle or lower position when the area to be cleared is uneven, such as a gravel driveway NOTE: If you choose to operate the snow thrower on a gravel surface, keep the skid shoes in position for maximum clearance between the ground and the shave plate. To adjust the skid shoes: 1. Loosen the four hex nuts (two on each side) and carriage bolts. Move skid shoes to desired position. See Figure 3-13. Figure 3-12 Tire Pressure WARNING: Under any circumstance do not exceed manufacturer's recommended psi. Equal tire pressure should be maintained at all times. Excessive pressure when seating beads may cause tire/rim assembly to burst with force sufficient to cause serious injury. Refer to sidewall of tire for recommended pressure. The tires are over-inflated for shipping purposes. Check the tire pressure before operating the snow thrower. Refer to the tire side wall for tire manufacturer's recommended psi and deflate (or inflate) the tires as necessary. NOTE: Equal tire pressure is to be maintained at all times for performance purposes. Figure 3-13 2. Make certain the entire bottom surface of skid shoe is against the ground to avoid uneven wear on the skid shoes. 3. Retighten nuts and bolts securely. 10 Section 3- Assembly & Set-Up
