Troy-Bilt storm 8526 Benutzerhandbuch

The snow thrower skid shoes are adjusted upward at the factory 

for shipping purposes. Adjust them downward, if desired, prior 

to operating the snow thrower.

It is not recommended that you operate 

this snow thrower on gravel as it can easily pick up 

and throw loose gravel, causing personal injury or 

damage to the snow thrower and surrounding 

property.

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

NOTE: If you choose to operate the snow thrower on a gravel 

surface, keep the skid shoes in position for maximum clearance 

between the ground and the shave plate.
To adjust the skid shoes: 

Loosen the four hex nuts (two on each side) and carriage 

bolts. Move skid shoes to desired position.  See Fig. 3-7.

Make certain the entire bottom surface of skid shoe is 

against the ground to avoid uneven wear on the skid 

shoes. 
Retighten nuts and bolts securely.

The distance snow is thrown can be adjusted by changing the 

angle of the chute assembly. To do so:

Stop the engine by removing the ignition key and loosen 

the plastic knob found on the left side of the chute 

assembly. 
Pivot the chute upward or downward before retightening 

the wing knob. See Fig. 3-8.
