Augers
The augers are secured to the spiral shaft with two shear bolts and hex lock nuts. If you hit a foreign object or ice jam, the snow thrower is designed so that the bolts may shear. Refer to Figure 13.
If the augers do not turn, check if the bolts have sheared. Two replacement shear bolts and hex lock nuts have been provided with the snow thrower. Refer to Loose Parts in the Assembly Section.
IMPORTANT:
NEVER replace the auger shear bolts with standard hex bolts. Any damage to the auger gearbox or other components, as a result of doing so, will NOT be covered by your snow thrower’s warranty.
Shave Plate and Skid Shoes
The shave plate and skid shoes on the bottom of the snow thrower are subject to wear. These should be checked periodically and replaced when necessary.
NOTE: The skid shoes on this machine have two wear
edges. When one side wears out, they can be rotated
180° to use the other edge.
