Figure 6-5 NOTE: Do not forget to reinstall the shoulder screw and reconnect the spring to the frame after installing a replacement auger belt. Although multi-viscosity oils (5W30, 10W30 etc.) improve starting in cold weather, these multiviscosity oils also result in higher oil consumption when used above 32ºF. Check your snow thrower’s engine oil level more frequently to avoid possible engine damage from running low on oil. Do not sandblast spark plug. Spark plug should be cleaned by scraping or wire brushing and washing with a commercial solvent. NEVER replace the auger shear pins with standard pins. 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. Figure 6-6 A B Figure 6-7 Figure 6-8 15 6 Augers • The augers are secured to the spiral shaft with two shear pins and cotter pins. If the auger should strike a foreign object or ice jam, the snow thrower is designed so that the pins may shear, Figure 6-2. Maintaining Your Snow Thrower • If the augers will not turn, check to see if the pins have sheared. One set of replacement shear pins has been provided with the snow thrower. When replacing pins, spray an oil lubricant into shaft before inserting new pins. Drive Belt Replacement Figure 6-9 To remove and replace your snow thrower’s auger belt, proceed as follows: 1. Remove the plastic belt cover on the front of the engine by removing the two self-tapping screws, Figure 6-9. • Drain the gasoline from the snow thrower, or place a piece of plastic under the gas cap. NEVER replace the auger shear pins with anything other than OEM Part No. 738-04124A replacement shear pins. Any damage to the auger gearbox or other components as a result of failing to do so will NOT be covered by your snow thrower’s warranty. • Carefully pivot the snow thrower up and forward so that it rests on the auger housing. 2. Remove the frame cover from the underside of the snow thrower by removing four self-tapping screws which secure it, Figure 6-10. 3. a.Grasp the idler pulley and pivot it toward the right, Figure 6-11. b.

Figure 6-14 • Slide the friction wheel assembly back onto the hex shaft and follow the steps above in reverse order to reassemble components. Figure 6-15 Figure 6-16 17 6 Maintaining Your Snow Thrower When reassembling the friction wheel assembly, tighten each screw only one rotation before turning the wheel clockwise and proceeding with the next screw. Repeat this process several times to ensure the plates are secured with equal force. NEVER replace the auger shear pins with anything other than OEM Part No. 738-04124A replacement shear pins. Any damage to the auger gearbox or other components as a result of failing to do so will NOT be covered by your snow thrower’s warranty. 7 Off-Season Storage If the snow thrower will not be used for 30 days or longer, or if it is the end of the snow season when the last possibility of snow is gone, the equipment needs to be stored properly. Follow storage instructions below to ensure top performance from the snow thrower for many more years. Preparing Engine Preparing Snow Thrower NOTE: Refer to the engine manual for more detailed information on preparing the snow thrower engine for storage. • When storing the snow thrower in an unventilated or metal storage shed, care should be taken to rustproof the equipment. Using a light oil or silicone, coat the equipment, especially any chains, springs, bearings and cables. Short-Term Storage It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming in essential fuel system parts of the engine such as the carburetor, fuel filter, fuel hose, or tank during short-term storage (15-30 days). To prevent this, treat the fuel system using a fuel stabilizer. WARNING Never store snow thrower with fuel in tank indoors or in poorly ventilated areas, where fuel fumes may reach an open flame, spark or pilot light as on a furnace, water heater, clothes dryer or gas appliance. Fuel left in engine during warm weather deteriorates and will cause serious starting problems. Never use engine or carburetor cleaning products in the fuel tank or permanent damage may occur. • Remove all dirt from exterior of engine and equipment. • Follow lubrication recommendations. • Store equipment in a clean, dry area. Fuel stabilizer (such as STA-BIL™ or ULTRA-FRESH™) is an acceptable alternative in minimizing the formation of fuel gum deposits during storage. Add stabilizer to gasoline in fuel tank or storage container. Always follow mix ratio found on stabilizer container. Run engine at least 10 minutes after adding stabilizer to allow it to reach the carburetor. WARNING: Never store snow thrower with fuel in tank indoors or in poorly ventilated areas, where fuel fumes may reach an open flame, spark or pilot light as on a furnace, water heater, clothes dryer or gas appliance. CAUTION: Alcohol blended fuels (called gasohol or using ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture which leads to separation and formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of an engine while in storage. Long-Term Storage To avoid engine problems, the fuel system should be emptied before storage for 30 days or longer. WARNING: Fuel left in engine during warm weather deteriorates and will cause serious starting problems. 1. Run the engine until the fuel tank is empty and it stops due to lack of fuel. Do not attempt to pour fuel from the engine. WARNING: Never use engine or carburetor cleaning products in the fuel tank or permanent damage may occur. 2. Remove the spark plug and pour one (1) ounce of engine oil through the spark plug hole into the cylinder. Cover spark plug hole with a rag and crank the engine several times to distribute the oil. Replace spark plug. 18 Problem Engine fails to start Cause Remedy 1. Choke not in ON position. 1. Move choke to ON position. 2. Spark plug wire disconnected. 2. Connect wire to spark plug. 3.
