ADJUST SKID HEIGHT
WARNING: Always turn unit off, remove ignition key, and
disconnect the spark plug wire before making any
repairs or adjustments.
This snowthrower is equipped with two height adjust skids, secured
to the outside of the auger housing. These elevate the front of the
snowthrower.
When removing snow from a hard surface area such as a paved
driveway or walk, adjust the skids up to bring the front of the
snowthrower down.
When removing snow from rock or uneven construction, raise the
front of the snowthrower by moving the skids down. This wilt help to
prevent rocks and other debris from being picked up and thrown by
the augers.
