Instructions / Assembly
If you choose to operate the snow blower on a gravel 
surface, use extra caution and keep the skid shoes in 
position for maximum clearance between the ground 
and the scraper blade.
To adjust the skid shoes:
1.     Loosen the four hex nuts (two on each side) and 
carriage bolts. Move skid shoes to desired position.
2.     Make sure the entire bottom surface of skid shoe 
is against the ground to avoid uneven wear on the 
skid shoes.
3. Retighten nuts and bolts securely.
Always adjust skid shoes after adjusting scraper blade 
to prevent premature wear to scraper blade or damage 
to auger housing.

AUGER CLUTCH AND DRIVE CLUTCH
When auger clutch lever or drive clutch lever is 
released and in the disengaged position, the cable 
should have very little slack.
Auger must stop within 5 seconds when the auger 
clutch lever is released. If auger clutch does not 
engage or disengage properly, adjust auger clutch 
before operation. 
If the snow blower’s drive is disengaging intermittently 
during operation, or it drives when you release the drive 
clutch lever, adjust the drive clutch before operation.
Both auger clutch and drive clutch can be adjusted as 
follows:
1. Loosen lock nut on adjustment turnbuckle.
2.     Turn the adjustment turnbuckle up and down to 
increase cable tension or provide more slack.
3. Retighten lock nut.

If the spiral at the bottom of the chute crank lever is 
not fully engaging with the chute assembly, the chute 
bracket can be adjusted.
CHUTE BRACKET
Position the skid shoes based on surface conditions. 
For removal of snow in normal conditions, such as 
a paved driveway or sidewalk, place skid shoes in 
the higher position to give a 1/8” (3mm) clearance 
between the scraper blade and the ground. Use a 
middle or lower position when the area to be cleared 
is uneven.
SKID SHOES
It is not recommended to operate the snow blower 
on gravel as it can easily pick up and throw by the 
impeller, causing personal injury or damage to the 
snow blower and surrounding property.
