Attaching the Shift Rod
• Align the upper and lower shift rods, then slide the shift
rod connector down over the end of the lower shift
rod. Tap the connector until the lower rod is completely
through the connector. See Figure 3-7.
Fig. 3-7
NOTE: If the connector is not properly assembled, the shift rod
will pivot and you will not be able to change speeds or direction
correctly.
NOTE: If the full range of speeds (forward and reverse) cannot be
achieved, refer to the Adjustment Section.
• Normally the cable ties holding the steering cables against
the handle are loosely installed on each side of the lower
handle at the factory. Pull the cable ties tight to secure. Cut
the excess from the ends of cable ties.
• If not already attached, slip the cables that run from the
handle panel to the discharge chute into the cable guide.
See Figure 3-8.

Drift Cutters
(If Equipped)
Drift cutters should be used when operating the snow thrower in
heavy drift conditions.
• On models so equipped, drift cutters and hardware are
assembled to the auger housing inverted.
• Remove the carriage bolts and wingnuts securing the drift
cutters to the housing.
• Reposition drift cutters so they face forward as shown in
Figure 3-9. Secure with hardware previously removed,
wingnuts should be fastened on the outside of the
housing as shown.
If your unit is not equipped with drift cutters, you may contact
Customer Support as instructed on page 2 for information
regarding price and availability.
