Instructions / Assembly

Step 2 – Chute assembly

1. Install the discharge chute onto the chute flange on the auger housing. The chute only rests on the

flange.

2. Slide the chute rod through the mounting hole on the left upper handle.

3. Attach the chute rotation bar to the mount bracket onto the chute housing using two screws, washers

and locknuts. Tighten fasteners securely.

Step 3 – Skid shoes installation and adjustments

1. Locate the pair of skid shoes from parts bag and remove the bolts.

2. Loosely install the skid shoes using the bolts and hex nuts as

shown on each side of the auger housing. Make sure the skid shoe

tip faces out.

Adjustment of the skid shoes sets the height above the ground at which

the auger shave plate operates.

For clearing snow from concrete, asphalt, and other smooth surfaces, set the auger shave plate so that the

bottom of the plate is just above the ground.

For clearing snow from gravel, dirt, and other rough surfaces set the auger shave plate slightly above the

ground to avoid dirt and gravel from entering the auger.

The optimal height of the plate will vary depending on the type of surface being cleared. Surfaces with

larger gravel or stones require a higher shave plate setting.

3. Move the Snow Thrower to a solid, smooth, and level surface.

4. Place a spacer board on the ground underneath the auger shave plate between the skid shoes. The

thickness of the board should be the same as the height above the ground you wish to raise the auger

shave plate. The skid shoes should not touch the board.

5. With the two (2) nuts loose allow the skid shoe to slide to the ground then tighten the nuts to secure

the skid shoe.
