Making 
Adjustments
WARNING
Loose gravel can be picked 
up and thrown by the 
auger, causing injury to the 
operator and bystanders 
and/or damage to the snow 
thrower and surrounding 
property.
 
Skid Shoes
The space between the skid shoes and the ground can 
be adjusted. 
•  For close snow removal on a smooth surface, raise 
skid shoes higher on the auger housing. 
•  Use a middle or lower position when the area to be 
cleared is uneven, such as a gravel driveway. 
To adjust the skid shoes: 
1.  Loosen the four hex nuts (two on each side) and 
carriage bolts. Move skid shoes to desired position. 
2.  Make certain the entire bottom surface of skid shoe is 
against the ground to avoid uneven wear on the skid 
shoes. 
3.  Retighten nuts and bolts securely.
NOTE:  Some models are equipped with reversible skid 
shoes and may be turned over to increase their lifespan.  
See Figure 5-7 and 5-8. 
Chute Bracket Adjustment
If the spiral at the bottom of the chute directional control 
is not fully engaging with the chute assembly, the chute 
bracket can be adjusted. To do so:
1.  Loosen the two nuts which secure the chute bracket 
and reposition it slightly. See Figure 5-9.
2.  Retightening the nuts.
Tire Pressure
Before operating, check tire pressure and reduce pres-
sure to between 15 psi and 20 psi. 
If the tire pressure is not equal in both tires, the unit may 
not travel in a straight path and the shave plate may wear 
unevenly.
