Adjust Auger Control Cable - Craftsman 536.885214 Operator's Manual

ADJUSTAUGERCONTROLCABLE
The auger control cable is adjusted at the
factory. During normal use, the auger
control cable can become stretched and
the auger drive lever will not properly en-
gage or disengage the auger.
1. Remove the "Z" hook from the au-
ger drive lever (Figure 6).
2. Slide the cable boot up the auger
control cable until the cable boot
does not cover any portion of the
cable adjustment bracket
(Figure 7).
3. Pull the auger control cable
through the eyehole in the cable
adjustment bracket as shown by
the arrow in Figure 7. This will
create enough slack to allow the
"Z" hook to be easily removed.
4. Install the "Z" hook into the next
available adjustment hole in the
cable adjustment bracket. This is
the adjustment hole located one
notch down from where the "Z"
hook was previously attached.
5. Pull the auger control cable back
through the eyehole of the cable
adjustment bracket until all the
slack is taken out of the auger con-
trol cable.
6. Slide the cable boot back down
over the cable adjustment brack-
et.
7. Install the "Z" hook to the auger
drive lever (Figure 6).
8. To check the adjustment, start the
snow thrower. Make sure the auger
does not rotate when the auger
drive lever is released. Engage the
auger drive lever and make sure
auger rotates. If the auger does not
rotate, repeat this "Adjust Auger
Control Cable" procedure.
