WARNING:  Before servicing, repairing, or
inspecting, disengage all clutch levers and
stop engine. Wait until all moving parts have
come to a complete stop. Disconnect spark
plug wire and ground it against the engine to
prevent unintended starting.

Refer to the separate engine manual packed with your 
unit for all engine related maintenance procedures.

The shave plate and skid shoes on the bottom of the 
snow thrower are subject to wear. They should be 
checked periodically and replaced when necessary. To 
remove the skid shoes, proceed as follows:

•

Remove the six carriage bolts, bell washers and 
hex nuts which attach them to the snow thrower.

•

 Reassemble new skid shoes with the six carriage 
bolts, bell washers (cupped side goes against skid 
shoes) and hex nuts. Make certain the skid shoes 
are adjusted to be level.

To remove shave plate, remove the carriage bolts, 
belleville washers and hex nuts which attach it to the 
snow thrower housing. Reassemble new shave plate, 
making sure heads of the carriage bolts are to the 
inside of the housing. Tighten securely.

WARNING:  Disconnect spark plug wire and
ground it against the engine to prevent
unintended starting. Drain fuel into an
approved container or place a piece of plastic
film underneath the gas cap to prevent
gasoline from leaking.
