Lift Link Adjustment
The adjustable lift link assemblies at each end of the lift shaft
are adjusted at the factory and should not require readjustment.
However if the drive shaft makes contact with any part of the
tractor when the snow thrower is raised to the transport position,
the lift links should be adjusted as follows:
a. Raise the snow thrower to its fully raised position.
b. Loosen the hex insert lock nut at the top of one
adjustable eyebolt link. Refer to Figure 6-4.
c. Thread the hex nut beneath the lift link up the
eyebolt to lengthen the lift link assembly. Lengthen
the lift link assembly only as needed to eliminate the
drive shaft contact. Retighten the hex insert lock nut
after adjusting. See Figure 6-4.
d. Repeat the above procedures to adjust the lift link
assembly on the other side of the snow thrower to
the same length.

Controls
1. The snow thrower controls are conveniently located at the
operator's position on the tractor.
2. The lift handle is used to raise and lower the snow thrower.
To raise the snow thrower, pull back and down on the lift
handle until the lift index rod fully engages the latch slot
of the lift latch bracket. To lower the snow thrower, push
slightly downward on the lift handle, then pull the trigger.
With the trigger pulled, lower the snow thrower slowly
until it contacts the ground. Refer to Figure 6-5.

3. The discharge chute control crank is located on the left
hand side of the snow thrower. The chute crank controls
the direction in which snow is thrown. The discharge radius
is 190 degrees. Turn the crank clockwise to discharge to
the left and counterclockwise to discharge to the right. See
Figure 6-6.
4. The chute tilt handle is also located on the left hand side
of the snow thrower. The pivoting upper section of the
discharge chute pivots downward when the tilt handle is
pushed forward — decreasing the distance snow is thrown.
Pulling the handle backwards pivots the upper section
upward — increasing the distance snow is thrown. Refer to
Figure 6-6.
