CAUTION
■ To avoid serious personal injury. Escaping
hydraulic/ diesel fluid under pressure can pene-
trate the skin causing serious injury.
•
Do not use your hands to check for leaks.
Use a piece of cardboard or paper to search
for leaks.
•
Stop engine and relieve pressure before
connecting or disconnecting lines.

WARNING
■ Keep hands and body away from pressurized
lines. Use paper or cardboard, not hands or
other body parts to check for leaks. Wear safe-
ty goggles. Hydraulic fluid under pressure can
easily penetrate skin and will cause serious in-
jury or death.
1. Remove the manual chute deflector by straighten-
ing and removing cotter pins. Store for later use if
snow blower is moved to a tractor with less hydrau-
lic capability.
2. Figure 24: Remove one retaining ring (item 4) from
the pin (item 3) at the base end of the hydraulic cyl-
inder (item 6). Attach the cylinder to the lug (item 5)
on the discharge chute using the pin and ring (items
3, 4).

3. Using thread sealant, connect the 3/8 NPT ends of
both hoses (item 2) to the hydraulic cylinder (item
1).
4. Figure 25: Using thread sealant, connect the 1/2
NPT end of each hose (item 2) to a quick coupler
(item 6) and dust cap (item 7).
5. Secure the hoses to the hole provided in the three-
