2. Loosen the hex nut on the shift cable index bracket. See Figure 6-9. Figure 6-7 3. Pivot the shift bracket downward as far as it will go. See Figure 6-8. Figure 6-8 4. Rotate the ferrule up or down on the shift rod as necessary until the ferrule lines up with the upper hole in the shift lever. Refer to Figure 6-7 inset. 5. Insert the ferrule into the upper hole and secure with the washer and cotter pin. Shift Cable (If Equipped) If the full range of speeds (forward and reverse) cannot be achieved, adjust the shift cable as follows: 1. Place the shift lever in the fastest forward speed position. Figure 6-9 3. Pivot the bracket downward to take up slack in the cable. 4. Retighten the hex nut. Auger Control Refer to the Assembly and Set-up section for instructions on adjusting the auger control cable. Skid Shoes Refer to the Assembly and Set-up section for instructions on adjusting the skid shoes. Drive Control When the drive control is released and in the disengaged "up" position, the cable should have very little slack. It should NOT be tight. NOTE: If excessive slack is present in the drive cable or if the snow thrower's drive is disengaging intermittently during operation, the cable may be in need of adjustment. Check the adjustment of the drive control as follows: 1. With the drive control released, push the snow thrower gently forward. The unit should roll freely. 2. Engage the drive control and gently attempt to push the snow thrower forward. The wheels should not turn. The unit should not roll freely. If any of the above tests failed, the drive cable is in need of adjustment. Proceed as follows: 1. Shut off the engine as instructed in the separate engine manual. 2. Loosen the lower hex screw on the drive cable bracket. See Figure 6-10. Section 6 - Maintenance & Adjustments 21
