Skid Shoe Adjustment; Electric Chute Rotator Gear - Snapper 42" Single-Stage Snowthrower Operator's Manual

Skid Shoe Adjustment

On smooth surfaces such as concrete or asphalt, the
scraper bar should scrape the surface. On surfaces such
as gravel, the scraper bar should be set high enough so
that it will not pick up debris.
1. Loosen the nuts securing the skid shoes (see
Figure 3).
2. Raise or lower the scraper bar to the desired height.
Use wood blocks to hold the snow thrower in posi-
tion.
3. Set the skid shoes so that they are in contact with the
ground and tighten the skid shoe nuts.
