Replace belt and reassemble in reverse order.

•

Reassemble the two halves of the unit hooking the 
lower portion of the auger housing over the 
stationary shoulder bolts in the frame assembly.

•

Secure the two halves with the two bolts and lock 
washers removed earlier. Refer to Figure 18.

•

Attach the “Z” fitting of the cable into the brake 
bracket assembly. Refer to Figure 20.

•

Slip the auger control belt over engine pulley.

•

Insert ferrule on auger idler rod into bracket 
assembly and secure with flat washer and cotter 
pin. Reassemble the large shoulder bolt and lock 
washer as shown in Figure 19. 

•

Reassemble belt cover and chute crank.

The bonded friction wheel is subject to wear and should 
be checked after the first 25 hours of operation, and 
periodically thereafter. Replace the bonded friction 
wheel if any signs of wear or cracking are found.

•

Drain the gasoline from the snow thrower, or place 
a piece of plastic under the gas cap.

•

Tip the snow thrower up and forward, so that it rests 
on the housing.

•

Remove six screws from the frame cover 
underneath the snow thrower.

•

Remove the left wheel from the axle.

•

Using a 7/8” wrench, hold the hex shaft and remove 
the hex bolts and bell washer and bearing from left 
side of the frame. See Figure 23A.

•

Holding the friction wheel assembly, slide the hex 
shaft out of the left side of the unit. The spacer on 
the right side of the hex shaft will fall and the 
sprocket should remain hanging lose in the chain.

•

Lift the friction wheel assembly out between the 
axle shaft and the drive shaft assemblies.

•

Remove four screws securing the friction wheel 
assembly together. See Figure 23B. 

•

Discard old bonded friction wheel.

•

Reassemble the new bonded friction wheel to the 
friction wheel assembly, tightening the four screws 
in rotation and with equal force.

•

Insert the pin from the shift arm assembly into the 
friction wheel assembly and hold assembly in 
position. See Figure 23A.

•

Slide the hex shaft through the left side of the 
housing and through the friction wheel assembly.

•

Insert the hex shaft through the sprocket and the 
spacer. Make certain that the chain engages both 
the large and the small sprocket. See Figure 24.

NOTE: If the sprocket fell from the snow thrower while
removing the hex shaft, place the sprocket on the hex
shaft. Position the hex hub of the sprocket toward the
friction wheel when sliding the sprocket on to the hex
shaft. See Figure 24.

•

Secure with the bell washer and hex bolt removed 
earlier.

•

Secure the frame cover with six self-tapping 
screws. Put the snow thrower down to its normal 
operating position.

NOTE: If you placed plastic film under the gas cap, be
certain to remove it.
