  • Page 15 Snowblower Hydraulic Rotator Installing the Hydraulic Chute Rotator Safety Shield with Hose Guide The Hydraulic Chute Rotator has rods that act as guides to guide the Defl ector Hydraulic Hose (if used) to the outside of the shield. All Shields are manufactured with the Rods straight. They may need to be bent in or out for smaller or larger blowers.

  • Page 17: Chute Stop

    Chute Stop The Chute Stop is standard on all Meteor Snowblowers. It prevents the chute from being rotated straight back to the operator. It prevents the Hydraulic hoses (if used) from getting wound around the chute. On the smaller blowers with electric defl ector actuator the Chute Stop prevents the wires from getting wound up.

  • Page 29 Shear Bolts Shear bolts are built to break under shock loads on the fan or auger. However under certain circumstances this security is not adequate. Example: a sudden high impact shock on the fan may, in some cases break the fan shaft without breaking the shear bolt. If the shear bolt breaks, make sure to always replace it with the same grade of bolt (grade 5 for PTO series 20-40-50-60, and grade 8 for PTO series 80) it is necessary to always maintain this bolt very tight in order to keep the efficiency of the shearing mechanism.
