shift Cable
If the full range of speeds (forward and reverse) cannot be achieved,
refer to the figure to the right and adjust the shift cable as follows:
1.
Place the shift lever in the
2.
Loosen the hex nut on the shift cable index bracket. See Figure
19.
3.
Pivot the bracket downward to take up slack in the cable.
4.
Retighten the hex nut.
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:
1.
With the drive control released, push the snow thrower gently
forward. The unit should roll freely.
2.
Engage the drive control and gently attempt to push the snow
thrower forward. The wheels should not turn. The unit should not
roll freely.
3.
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.
4.
If any of the above tests failed, the drive cable is in need of adjust-
ment. Proceed as follows:
5.
Loosen the lower hex bolt on the drive cable bracket. See Figure
20.
6.
Position the bracket upward to provide more slack (or downward
to increase cable tension).
7.
Retighten the lower hex bolt.
Chute Control
Once a season or every 25 hours of operation, whichever is earlier,
check whether the four-way chute control™ cables have slackened. If
the chute does not rotate fully, the chute control cables will have to be
adjusted. Refer to Figure 21.
