Remove the large shoulder bolt and washer on the

•

Remove the cotter pin and washer from the ferrule 
in order to disconnect the auger idler rod from the 
brake bracket assembly. See Figure 20.

•

Slip the auger control belt (the front belt) off the 
engine pulley.

•

Pull the brake bracket assembly towards the cable 
guide roller and unhook the auger cable “Z” fitting.

•

Remove the upper bolts and lock washers which 
secure the auger housing assembly to the frame 
assembly using a 9/16” wrench. See Figure 18.

•

Separate the auger housing from the frame 
assembly by tilting the housing forward and pulling 
up the handles.

Using a 1/2” wrench, remove the hex screw and 
bell washer from the center of the pulley on the

Reassemble the belt cover and chute directional 
control.

Proper Adjustment: With the auger clutch lever in the 
disengaged position the top surface of the new belt 
should be even with the outside diameter of the pulley.

•

To adjust, disconnect ferrule from brake bracket 
assembly and thread ferrule in (towards idler) to 
increase tension on belt, and out to decrease tension.

NOTE: The brake puck must always be firmly seated in
the pulley groove when the auger control is in the
disengaged position.

Unhook the extension spring from the belt cover 
plate. See Figure 22.
