ADJUSTAUGERCONTROLCABLE
The auger control cable is adjusted at the factory. During normal use, the auger control cable can become
stretched and the auger drive lever will not properly engage or disengage the auger.
1. Remove the “Z” hook from the auger drive lever (Figure 20) .
2. Slide the cable boot, if equipped, up the auger control cable until the cable boot does not cover any
portion of the cable adjustment bracket (Figure 21).
3. Pull the auger control cable through the eyehole in the cable adjustment bracket as shown by the arrow
in Figure 21. This will create enough slack to allow the “Z” hook to be easily removed.
4. Install the “Z” hook into the next available adjustment hole in the cable adjustment bracket. This is the
adjustment hole located one notch down from where the “Z” hook was previously attached.
5. Pull the auger control cable back through the eyehole of the cable adjustment bracket until all the slack is
taken out of the auger control cable.
6. Slide the cable boot back down over the cable adjustment bracket.
7. Install the “Z” hook to the auger drive lever (Figure 20).
8. To check the adjustment, start the snow thrower. Make sure the auger does not rotate when the auger drive
lever is released. Engage the auger drive lever and make sure auger rotates. If the auger does not rotate,
repeat this “Adjust Auger Control Cable” procedure.
