Drift cutters should be used when operating the snow 
thrower in heavy drift conditions. 
•  On models so equipped, drift cutters are assembled to 

the auger housing inverted.

•  Remove the carriage bolts by unthreading the hex 

nuts which secure them, and reinstall the drift cutters 
facing forward before operating the snow thrower. 
Refer to Figure 9.

If your unit is 

not equipped with drift cutters, you may 

contact Customer Support as instructed on page 2 for 
information regarding price and availability.

The clean-out tool is mounted to the rear of the auger 
housing and is designed to clear a clogged chute. See 
Figure 10. Refer to the Operation section for more 
detailed information regarding the chute clean-out tool.

NOTE: This item is fastened with a cable tie to the rear of 
the auger housing at the factory. Cut the cable tie before 
operating the snow thrower.

Make these final adjustments before operating your snow 
thrower for the first time. Failure to follow these instruc-
tions may cause damage to the snow thrower.
Wheel Drive Control & Shift Lever 
Perform the following test to determine need for adjust-
ment:
•  Move the shift lever into sixth (6) position. See Figure 

14.

•  With the drive control released (see Figure 11A), 

push the snow thrower forward, then pull it back. The 
machine should move freely. 

•  Engage the drive control and attempt to move the 

machine both forward and back, resistance should be 
felt.

•  Move the shift lever into the fast reverse (R2) position 

and repeat the previous two steps. 

If you experienced resistance rolling the unit, either 
when repositioning the shift lever from 6 to R2 or when 
attempting to move the machine with the drive control 
released, adjust the drive control immediately. To adjust, 
proceed as follows:
•  Loosen the jam nut on the drive control cable and 

unthread the cable one full turn.  See Figure 13.

•  Recheck adjustment.

Under any circum-
stance do not exceed 
manufacturer’s recom-
mended psi. Equal tire 
pressure should be 
maintained at all times. 
Excessive pressure 
when seating beads 
may cause tire/rim 
assembly to burst 
with force sufficient to 
cause serious injury. 
Refer to sidewall of 
tire for recommended 
pressure.
