Lubrication
Auger Shaft
At least once a season, remove the shear bolts from the
auger shafts. Spray lubricant inside the shaft and around the
bearings at each end of the shaft.
Auger Gearcase
Gearcases are lled to the correct level at the factory. Within
rst 150 hours of running, no additional lubricant should be
required unless there is evidence of leakage.
Any work on the inside structure of auger requires specic
experience and special tools. For safety purposes, we
recommend you contact an authorized Snow Joe

center at 1-866-SNOWJOE (1-866-766-9563).
To ll the gearcase, follow the instruction below every 150 to
200 hours operation:
1. Remove the ll plug with the 10 mm end of either open
end wrench. Inject some general low-temperature
synthetic grease to ller hole. Replace plug. (Fig. 37).
IMPORTANT! Wipe each tting clean before and after
lubrication. Do not wipe gearcase ller plug; wiping the
gearcase ller plug may remove thread sealant and cause
leaks.
