SHAVE PLATE REPLACEMENT 
Remove both skid shoes and hardware including carriage bolts and nuts which attach shave plate to snow 
thrower housing. Reassemble new shave plate, making sure heads of the carriage bolts are to the inside of 
the auger housing. 
AUGER OR IMPELLER JAMS 
WARNING! The auger and impeller rotate at fast speeds 
which can cause harm or even amputation to a person's body 
parts. Even if you do not see the auger or impeller rotating, it 
may start at any time if the engine is running. The chute 
clean-out tool is fastened to the top of the auger housing with 
a mounting clips. 
1.  Always turn OFF the engine before attempting to clear 
any clogs or jams. 
2.  Keep hands and feet away from rotating parts while the engine is running. 
3.  Do not wear loose fitting clothing that can become entangled in rotating parts. 
4.  Wait until the auger and impeller have come to a full stop. 
5.  Clear any visible jams using the clean out tool attached to your machine. 
WARNING! DO NOT try to clear jams with your hands or feet. 
AUGER SHEAR PINS REPLACEMENT 
Shear pins are used to attach the auger shaft to the auger 
blades. A clog or jam in the augers may cause one or 
multiple shear pins to break. The shear pins are a safety 
mechanism and designed to break under high load or impact 
to protect the auger drive system from damage. 
Replacement shear pins and nylon locknuts are provided 
with your snow thrower. 
For additional replacement shear pins, please call the 
customer service department at (800)791 9458. 
1.  Turn off the engine and wait for all moving parts to come to a complete stop. Remove any remnants 
of the broken shear pin. It may be necessary to unscrew the nut from the broken shear pin and drive 
out the broken pin. 
2.  Insert a new shear pin through the hole in the auger shaft and tighten using the shear pin nylon 
locknut. Do not over-tighten the nylon locknut. 
NOTICE: Never replace the shear pins with standard pins or fasteners. Damage may occur to the snow 
blower and drive systems.
