To Engage Drive
1.
With the throttle control in the Fast (rabbit)
into one of the six forward (F) positions or two reverse (R) positions. Select a
speed appropriate for the snow conditions and a pace you're comfortable
with.
NOTE: When selecting a drive speed, use the slower speeds until you are
comfortable and familiar with the operation of the snow thrower.
2.
Squeeze the drive control against the handle and the snow thrower will
move. Release it and drive motion will stop.
NOTE: NEVER reposition the shift lever (change speeds or direction of travel)
without first releasing the drive control and bringing the snow thrower to a
complete stop. Doing so will result in premature wear to the snow thrower's
drive system.
To Engage Auger
1.
To engage the auger and start throwing snow, squeeze the auger control
against the left handle. Release to stop the auger.
Replacing Shear Pins
Each auger blade and the rear accelerator is secured to the spiral shaft with a shear
pin and bow-tie clip. If an auger blade strikes a foreign object or ice jam, the pin will
shear off to prevent damage to the blade. If an auger blade does not turn, check to
see if its pin has sheared off. See Figure 19.
NEVER replace the auger shear pins with anything other than Sears SKU#
88389/OEM Part No. 738-04124A replacement shear pins. Any damage to
the auger gearbox or other components as a result of failing to do so will
NOT be covered by your snow thrower's warranty.
Always turn OFF the snow thrower's engine and remove the safety key
prior to replacing shear pins.
