Troy-Bilt 726 TDE Benutzerhandbuch

The track drive control is located on the right handle. Squeeze 

the control grip against the handle to engage the track drive. 

Release to stop. 

Note: Always release the drive control before changing speeds. 

Failure to do so will result in increased wear on your machine’s 

drive system.
*On this model, the drive control also locks the auger control 

so that you can operate the chute control handle without 

interrupting the snow throwing process. If the auger control is 

engaged simultaneously with the drive control, the operator can 

release the auger control (on the left handle) and the augers will 

remain engaged. Release both controls to stop the augers and 

the track drive.

The auger control is located on the left handle. Squeeze the 

control grip against the handle to engage the augers and start 

snow throwing action. Release to stop.

When engaged, the augers rotate and draw snow into the auger 

housing.

Snow drawn into the auger housing is discharged out the chute 

assembly.

This handle is used to manually start the engine.

The left and right track steering controls are located on the 

underside of the handles and they are used to assist in steering 

the snow thrower. Squeeze the right track control when turning 

right, squeeze the left control when turning left. Operate your 

snow thrower in open areas until you become familiar with these 

controls. 

NOTE: It is easier to maneuver a non-running snow thrower 

with both track steering controls held in simultaneously.

The chute directional control is located on the left side of the 

dash panel.

To change the direction in which snow is thrown, squeeze 

• 

the button on the joy-stick and pivot the joy-stick to the 

right or to the left.
To change the angle/distance which snow is thrown, pivot 

• 

the joy-stick forward or backward.

The track lock lever is located on the right side of the snow 

thrower and is used to select the position of the auger housing 

and the method of track operation. Move the lever to the right, 

then forward or backward to one of the three positions.

Raises the front end of the snow thrower for easy transport. 

Using proper caution, this position may also be used on many 

gravel driveways to clear snow while leaving gravel undisturbed.

Allows the tracks to be suspended independently for continuous 

ground contact.

Locks the front end of the snow thrower down to the ground for 

hard-packed or icy snow conditions.
