Wheel drive control Refer to the Adjustment section of the Assembly & Set-Up section earlier in this manual for instructions on how to adjust the wheel drive control. To further check the adjustment, proceed as follows: 1. With the snow thrower tipped forward (be certain to run the fuel tank dry before tipping the unit forward), remove the frame cover underneath the snow thrower by removing the self-tapping screws. See Figure 6-6. 4. If there is no friction wheel clearance, or the friction wheel does not solidly contact the drive plate, re-adjust the lock nut on the lower end of the drive cable following the instructions in the Assembly section. 5. Reassemble the frame cover. Auger Control Refer to the Assembly section for instructions on adjusting the auger control cable. Tire Pressure Refer to the Assembly section for instructions on adjusting the tire pressure. Off-Season Storage If the snow thrower will not be used for 30 days or longer, follow the storage instructions below. 1. Lubricate the machine as instructed earlier in this section. 2. Store in a clean, dry area. 3. If storing the snow thrower in an unventilated area, rustproof the machine using a light oil or silicone to coat the snow thrower. 4. Clean the exterior of the engine and the snow thrower. IMPORTANT: See the Engine Operator's Manual included with the snow thrower for complete engine off-season storage procedures. Figure 6-6 2.
