To Engage Drive
1. With the throttle control in the Fast (rabbit) position, move
shift lever into one of the six forward (F) positions or two
reverse (R) positions. Select a speed appropriate for the
snow conditions and a pace you're comfortable with.
2. Squeeze the drive control against the handle the snow
thrower will move. Release it and drive motion will stop.
To Steer
1. With the drive control engaged, squeeze the right steering
trigger control to turn right. Squeeze the left steering
trigger control to turn left.
CAUTION:
Operate the snow thrower in open areas
and at slow speeds until you are familiar with the
drive control and comfortable operating the
steering controls.
To Engage Augers
1. To engage the augers and start throwing snow, squeeze
the auger control against the left handle. Release to stop
the augers.
Replacing Shear Pins
The augers are secured to the spiral shaft with two shear pins
and cotter pins. If the auger should strike a foreign object or ice
jam, the snow thrower is designed so that the pins may shear. If
the augers will not turn, check to see if the pins have sheared.
See Fig. 5-1.
Figure 5-1
CAUTION:
NEVER replace the auger shear pins with
anything other than OEM Part No.738-04124A
replacement shear pins. Any damage to the auger
gearbox or other components as a result of failing to
do so will NOT be covered by your snow thrower's
warranty.
WARNING!
Always turn off the snow thrower's
engine and remove the key prior to replacing shear
pins.
