Auger Control Test
Perform the following test before operating your snow 
thrower for the first time and at the start of each winter.
Check the adjustment of the auger control as follows:
1.  When the auger control is released and in the 

disengaged “up” position, the cable should have very 
little slack. It should NOT be tight.

2.  In a well-ventilated area, start the snow thrower 

engine as instructed on the previous page.

3.  While standing in the operator’s position (behind the 

snow thrower), engage the auger. 

4.  Allow the auger to remain engaged for approximately 

ten (10) seconds before releasing the auger control. 
Repeat this several times. 

5.  With the auger control in the disengaged “up” posi-

tion, walk to the front of the machine.

6.  Confirm that the auger has completely stopped 

rotating and shows NO signs of motion. If the auger 
shows ANY signs of rotating, immediately return to 
the operator’s position and shut off the engine. Wait 
for ALL moving parts to stop before re-adjusting the 
auger control.

7.  To readjust the control cable, loosen the upper hex  

nut on the auger cable bracket. See Figure 4-2.

8.  Position the bracket upward to provide more slack (or 

downward to increase cable tension).

9.  Retighten the upper hex nut. 
10. Repeat Auger Control Test to verify proper adjustment 

has been achieved.

The tires are over-inflated for shipping purposes. 
Check the tire pressure before operating the snow 
thrower. Refer to the tire side wall for tire manufacturer’s 
recommended psi and deflate (or inflate) the tires as 
necessary.
NOTE: 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.
