CUTTING EDGE MAINTENANCE

Verify from time to time the wearing on the cutting
edge to make sure you do not wear out the base of
the snowblower's chassis. This cutting edge is
reversible. All you have to do is unscrew the bolts and
turn the cutting edge, reinstall and tighten the bolts
securely.
AUGERS
REPLACEMENT
Shear bolts are to be considered a preventive
measure and not an assured protection. Operator
vigilance is required. Thoroughly inspect the areas
where the snowblower is to be used and remove all
foreign objectsl
To avoid damage to the snowblower:
Use only the original shear bolts (grooved bolts).
#104000 in bags of 10 for the augers.
#103999 in bags of 10 for the fan.
The use of any other shear bolt will not insure any
protection and may void the warranty.

END OF SEASON STORAGE

a) Clean snowblower and subframe thoroughly and
repaint all parts from which paint has worn.
b) List the replacement parts that will be needed for
the next season.
c) Store the snowblower and the subframe in a dry
place.
d) Follow the instructions in the Lubrication section.
