• Loosen the jam nut and thread the cable in (for less
slack) or out (for more slack) as necessary. See
Figure 7.
• Recheck adjustment; readjust as necessary and
tighten the jam nut.
Figure 7
Skid Shoes
The space between the shave plate and the ground can
be adjusted by repositioning the skid shoes. For close
snow removal, as when using on a smooth concrete or
asphalt driveway, place the skid shoes in the low
position. Use the middle or high position when the area
to be cleared is uneven. When operating on gravel,
always put skid shoes in the high position.
See Figure 8.
Adjust skid shoes as follows:
• Loosen, but do not remove, the three hex nuts
which fasten the skid shoe to the auger housing.
• Raise or lower the skid shoe to desired position.
• Retighten the hex nuts loosened earlier.
• Repeat on the other side of the snow thrower.
NOTE: Make certain the entire bottom surface of skid
shoe is against the ground to avoid uneven wear on the
skid shoes.
Figure 8
Tire Pressure (Pneumatic Tires)
The tires are overinflated for shipping purposes.
• Check tire pressure. Maintain pressure between 10
and 14 psi.
NOTE: If the tire pressure is not equal in both tires, the
unit may pull to one side or the other.
WARNING: Maximum tire pressure
under any circumstance is 30 psi. Equal
tire pressure should be maintained at all
times. Excessive pressure (over 30 psi)
when seating beads may cause tire/rim
assembly to burst with force sufficient to
cause serious injury.
SECTION 3: KNOWING YOUR SNOW THROWER
WARNING: Read, understand, and
follow all instructions and warnings on
the machine and in this manual before
operating.
Traction Control / Auger Control Lock
The traction control is located on the right handle.
Squeeze the traction control to engage the wheel drive.

This same lever also locks the auger control so you can
operate the chute crank without interrupting the snow
throwing process. If the auger control is engaged
simultaneously with the traction control, the operator
can release the auger control (on the left handle) and
the augers will remain engaged. Release the traction
control to stop the augers and wheel drive (the auger
control must also be released).
IMPORTANT: Always release the traction control before
changing speeds.
Auger Control
The auger control is located on the left handle.
Squeeze the auger control to engage the augers.
