Maintenance & Storage
- Never tamper with safety devices. Check their proper operation regularly. Refer to the maintenance and adjustment sections of this manual.
- Before cleaning, repairing, or inspecting the machine disengage all control levers and stop the engine. Wait until the auger/impeller comes to a complete stop. Disconnect the spark plug wire and ground against the engine to prevent unintended starting.

Service And Maintenance
Changing Engine Oil
NOTE: Change the engine oil after the first 5 hours of operation and once a season or every 50 hours thereafter.
- Drain fuel from the tank by running the engine until the fuel tank is empty. Be sure the fuel fill cap is secure.
- Place a suitable oil collection container under the oil drain plug.
- Remove oil drain plug and washer (if equipped). See 54.
- Tip unit to drain oil into the container. Used oil must be disposed of at a proper collection center.
- Reinstall the drain plug and washer (if equipped) and tighten it securely.
- Refill with the recommended oil and check the oil level. See Recommended Oil Usage chart.
- Reinstall the oil filler cap/dipstick securely.
Drive Control
When the drive control is released and in the disengaged “up” position, the cable should have very little slack. It should NOT be tight. Also, if there is excessive slack in the drive cable or if the unit experiences intermittent drive while using, the cable may need to be adjusted. Check the adjustment of the drive control as follows:
- With the drive control released, push the snow blower gently forward. The unit should roll freely.
- Engage the drive control and gently attempt to push the snow blower forward. The wheels should not turn. The unit should not roll freely.
- With the drive control released, move the shift lever back and forth between the R2 position and the F6 position several times. There should be no resistance in the shift lever.
- If any of the above tests failed, the drive cable is in need of adjustment. Proceed as follows:
- Shut off the engine as instructed in the Operation section.
- Loosen the lower hex bolt on the drive cable bracket. See Figure 63.
- Position the bracket upward to provide more slack (or downward to increase cable tension).
- Retighten the lower hex bolt.
Chute Control Rod
To achieve more chute control rod engagement in the input shaft under the handle panel, the chute control rod will have to be adjusted. Refer to Figure 64. To adjust this rod, proceed as follows:
- Remove the cotter pin from the hole closest to the chute control head on the chute control input.
- Pull out the chute control rod until the hole in it lines up with the other hole in the chute control input.
- Reinsert the cotter pin through this hole and the chute control rod.
