This snowthrower is equipped with two height adjust skids,
secured to the outside of the auger housing. These elevate
the front of the snowthrower.
When removing snow from a hard surface area such as a
paved driveway or walk, adjust the skids up to bring the front
of the snowthrower down.
When removing snow from gravel-covered or uneven sur-
faces, raise the front of the snowthrower by moving the skids
down. This will help to prevent rocks and other debris from
being picked up and thrown by the augers.
1. Determine how much clearance you want between the
scraper bar at the bottom of the auger housing and the
ground. If clearing a gravel surface, enough ground clear-
ance is needed to prevent the unit from picking up rocks.
2. Place a block equal to the desired ground clearance
under the scraper bar.
3. Loosen the skid shoe mounting nuts (A, Figure 9) and
push the skid shoe (B) down until it touches the ground.
Re-tighten mounting nuts.
4. Set the skid shoe on the other side at the same height.

The traction drive belt is under constant spring tension and
does not require any adjustment. If the traction drive belt is
slipping, see your authorized dealer.
If the Easy Turn cable has stretched, the gears will not dis-
engage when the control lever is activated. Adjust the cable
using the following procedure.
1. Turn the engine off and remove the key.
2. Loosen the jam nut (A, Figure 13).
3. Turn the adjustment nut (B) to lengthen or shorten the
cable. The cable should be tightened until all slack is
removed from the lever. However, it must not engage the
Easy Turn without depressing the control lever.
4. Tighten the jam nut (A).
If the speed control rod requires adjustment, see an autho-
rized dealer.

Speed Control Rod Adjustment
1. With the auger control lever released, the hook (A, Figure
14) should barely touch the lever (B) without raising it.
There can be a maximum of 1/32” (0.8 mm) clearance.
2. To adjust, loosen the nut (C) by holding the adjustment
screw (D) and turning the nut. Then, turn the turnbuckle
and hold the adjustment screw (D). The adjustment
screw is a phillips screw and the head can be held or
turned by inserting a screwdriver through the spring.
3. Hold the screw and tighten the nut to secure.
4. To ensure that the auger does not engage unless the
control is fully depressed, please perform the Safety
System Test. The auger must stop within 5 seconds
of the control being released.
Auger Cable Adjustment
WARNING
Amputation hazard
Over-tightening the auger cable may cause the auger drive
to engage without depressing the auger drive control.
Follow the adjustment procedure to ensure the cable is not
over-tightened.
The augers are secured to the auger shaft with special shear
pins that are designed to break if an object becomes lodged
in the auger housing. Use of a harder grade shear pin will
reduce the protection provided by the shear pin.
Under most circumstances, if the auger strikes an object
which could cause damage to the unit, the shear pin will
break. This protects the gear box and other parts from dam-
age.
NOTICE
Do not replace the shear pins with anything other than the
correct grade replacement shear pin. Use of bolts, screws, or
harder grade shear pins can result in equipment damage.
Auger Shear Pin Replacement
WARNING
Amputation hazard
The discharge chute contains a rotating impeller to throw
snow. Fingers can quickly become caught and traumatic
amputation or severe laceration will result. Hand contact
with the rotating impeller inside the discharge chute is the
most common cause of injury associated with snowthrow-
ers.
Turn the engine OFF, wait for all moving parts to stop, and
remove the engine key before performing any maintenance
or repairs.
The shear pins and clips (A and B, Figure 15) are located on
the auger shaft. Replace a broken shear pin as follows.
1. Tap out the broken shear pin with a pin punch.
2. Install a new shear pin and cotter pin. Bend the ends of
the cotter pin down.
Tire pressure should be checked periodically. Recommended
tire pressure varies by tire manufacturer. A good rule of
thumb is to inflate the tire up to, but not exceeding, the “Max
Inflation” stamped on the side-wall of the tire.

Obecná bezpečnostní varování
NEBEZPEČÍ
Nohy a ruce udržujte z dosahu rotujících částí. Rotující části
mohou přijít do kontaktu s rukama, nohama, vlasy, oděvy či
doplňky.
Nedodržení těchto bezpečnostních pokynů může vést k
amputacím či vážným laceracím.
Při čištění, opravách či kontrolách sněhové frézy se ujistěte,
že motor je v poloze VYPN, svíčka je odpojená a všechny
pohyblivé části se zastavily.
Pod rotující části či do jejich blízkosti nedávejte ruce nebo
nohy. Nikdy neblokujte výstup.
Frézu nikdy nepoužívejte bez řádných krytů a jiných
ochranných pomůcek.
Jestliže běží motor, sněhovou frézu nikdy neponechávejte
bez dozoru. Vždy deaktivujte šneka a kontrolu trakce,
vypněte motor a vyndejte klíčky.
Udržujte všechny volné oděvy z dosahu přední části frézy
a šneku. Šály, rukavice, šňůrky a volné oděvy se mohou
rychle zachytit v rotujícím zařízení a může dojít k amputacím.
Svažte si dlouhé vlasy a sundejte šperky.
Po ukončení odstraňování sněhu frézu nechte několik minut
běžet, aby se předešlo zamrznutí sběrače a rotoru.
Jestliže se fréza nepoužívá nebo je převážená, deaktivujte
pohon sběrače/rotoru.
NEBEZPEČÍ
Odpadový žlab zahrnuje rotujícího šneka k odhazování sněhu.
Odpadový žlab nikdy nečistěte rukama. V rotoru může snadno
dojít k zachycení prstů. Vždy používejte čistící nástroj.
Nedodržení těchto bezpečnostních pokynů může vést k
amputacím či vážným laceracím.
VAROVÁNÍ
Nejčastější poranění při použití sněhové frézy vznikají při
kontaktu rukou s poháněčem odpadového nosníku.
Tato sněhová fréza je schopna amputovat ruce a nohy
a odhazovat předměty. Přečtěte si a dodržujte všechny
bezpečnostní pokyny v tomto návodu. Jestliže tak neučiníte,
může to vést ke smrti či vážným poraněním.
VAROVÁNÍ
Před spuštěním této jednotky si přečtěte, porozumějte a
dodržujte všechny pokyny na sněhové fréze a v návodu k
obsluze.
Nedodržení bezpečnostních pokynů v tomto návodu může vést
ke smrti či vážnému poranění.
Důkladně se seznamte s ovladači a s řádným použitím
sněhové frézy.
Ujistěte se, že před použitím sněhové frézy jste řádně
vyškoleni.
Ujistěte se, že víte, jak rychle přístroj zastavit a deaktivovat.
Nikdy nedovolte, aby se sněhovou frézou zacházely osoby
bez řádných pokynů.
Jestliže má být fréza uložena na delší dobu, vždy postupujte
podle pokynů v návodu k obsluze.
Udržujte bezpečnostní nálepky a, jestliže je to nutné,
