Auger Belt Installation
Belts: Service and Repairs
1. Using the auger lever, release the brake.
2. Install the auger belt through the bottom of the machine.
3. Install the auger belt onto the impeller pulley.
4. Install the bottom cover to the traction frame and secure with 4 (1/4–20 x 5/8
inch) screws. Tip the unit into proper position.
When tightening the crank bolt, the engine must be cranked to
prevent pinching the traction belt between the pulley sheaves.
Failure to do so will damage the traction belt and crank bolt will have
a low torque upon first use.
5. Install the engine pulley and the auger belt to the crankshaft. Apply Loctite
243 (blue) to the bolt. Install the bolt securing the engine pulley to the
crankshaft. Torque the bolt to 40 N • m (30 ft-lb).
6. Install the belt guide to the engine. Install the 2 (M8 x 1.25 x 20) screws
securing the belt guide to the engine. Torque the 2 screws to 26 N • m (20
ft-lb).

7. Check for proper clearance between the auger belt and belt guide. Engage
the auger belt and look between the auger belt and belt guide on the left side.
There should be about 3.2 mm (1/8 inch) gap.
8. Install the belt cover onto the traction frame and secure with 2 (1/4–20 x
5/8 inch) screws.
