• Remove four screws securing the friction wheel to
the hub assembly plate. See Figure 6-12. Discard the
old friction wheel.
• Slide the new friction wheel onto the hub assembly
so that its screw holes align with those of the hub
plate. Insert the four screws and tighten with equal
force. See Figure 6-12.
• Maneuver the friction wheel assembly into the frame
and position so that the pin of the shift arm assembly
is inserted into the friction wheel assembly as noted
earlier. Hold the assembly in this position.
• Slide the hex shaft through the right side of the
housing and through the friction wheel assembly.
NOTE: If the sprocket fell from the chain while removing
the hex shaft, reposition the sprocket in the chain with its
hex ID toward the friction wheel.
• After making certain the chain engages both the
large and small sprocket and the chain is pulled taut,
continue sliding the hex shaft to the left. Align the
hex shaft with the sprocket's hex ID and slide the hex
shaft through the sprocket. Slide the spacer onto the
left end of the hex shaft.
• After first making sure the bearing on the right hand
end of the hex shaft aligns with the hole in the frame
housing, hold the left hand bearing in the frame and
slide the end of the hex shaft through the bearing.
• Slide the bell washer onto the hex bolt (with the
crown side toward the bolt head) and thread the bolt
into the end of the hex shaft. Fully tighten the bolt.
• Secure the frame cover with four self-tapping screws.
• Reinstall the right wheel and secure with the clevis
pin and cotter pins Carefully pivot the snow thrower
down and rearward to its normal operating position.
NOTE: If you placed plastic film under the gas cap, be
certain to remove it.
