•
Be sure to lift up the front end of the engagement rod
as shown when performing the next operation. You
can temporarily support the rod using a rubber band
tied to the engine pulley keeper.
•
Attach the clutch/idler assembly to the tractor frame
as follows. Hook the assembly's notched rear pulley
frame brackets onto the two shoulder bolts you
assembled to the inside of the tractor frame. Lift the
front of the assembly and attach it to the R.H. and L.H.
hanger brackets using two pivot lock pins and 1/8"
hairpin cotters.
STEP 33: (SEE FIGURE 33)
•
Make sure the attachment clutch lever on the dash
panel is in the disengaged (down) position.
•
Pivot the upper idler arm so that it rests against
the stop bolt and is pointing toward the front as
shown. Screw the trunnion along the threads of the
engagement rod until it is aligned at the front end of
the idler arm slot. Attach the trunnion to the slot using
the 3/8" thin washer and a 5/64" hairpin cotter.
•
Remove the engine pulley keeper from the side of
the tractor frame by removing the washer and nut
that secure the keeper. Attach the new pulley keeper
supplied with the snow thrower, reusing the original
bolt, washer and nut.
NOTE: Some tractors may already be equipped with a
pulley keeper that is identical to the new one supplied.
STEP 34: (SEE FIGURE 34)
•
Assemble the short "V" belt onto the engine pulley
and then onto the large pulley on top of the clutch/idler
assembly. The belt must be placed to the inside of the
engine pulley keeper, the idler pulley and the keeper
bolt located beside the large pulley.
IMPORTANT: Do Not assemble the "V" belt around the
outside of the engine pulley keeper or the keeper bolt.
