WARNING: 
If any adjustments need to be 
made to the engine while the engine is 
running (e.g. carburetor), keep clear of all 
moving parts. Be careful of muffler, engine 
and other surrounding heated surfaces.
Drive / Auger Control Lock
The cams on the ends of the control rods which 
interlock the drive and auger controls must be 
lubricated at least once a season or every 25 hours of 
operation. The cams can be accessed beneath the 
handle panel. Use a multi-purpose automotive grease. 
See Figure 13.

Gear Case
The gear case is lubricated with grease at the factory 
and it does not require checking. If disassembled for 
any reason, lubricate with 2 ounces of Shell Alvania 
grease EPR00, part number 737-0168. Before 
reassembling, remove old sealant and apply new 
sealant. See Figure 14.
Figure 14
To check the level of grease in the gear case, remove 
the vent plug.
IMPORTANT: 
 Do not overfill the gear case, since 
damage to the seals could result. Be sure the vent plug 
is free of grease in order to relieve pressure.
Auger Shaft
At least once a season, remove the shear pins from the 
auger shaft and spray lubricant inside the shaft. See 
Figure 14.
Auger Bearings
Every season lubricate the auger bearings and the 
bearings on the side of the frame with light oil. See 
Figure 14.
Drive and Shifting Mechanism
Lubricate at least once a season or after every 25 hours 
of operation. Remove the rear cover, lubricate any 
chains, sprockets, gears, bearings, shafts, and shifting 
mechanism at least once a season. Use engine oil or a 
spray lubricant. Avoid getting oil on the friction 
wheel rubber and aluminum drive plate. 
Refer to 
Figure 10.
Gear Shaft
Lubricate the gear shaft with 6-n-1 grease at least once 
a season or after every 25 hours of operation (available 
at automotive stores, or order part number 737-0170).
 
Refer to Figure 10.
IMPORTANT: 
 Keep all grease and oil off of the rubber 
friction wheel and aluminum drive plate.
Chute Directional Control
The worm gear on the chute directional control should 
be greased with multipurpose automotive grease.
