Troy-Bilt 23AABA6X711 Manuel D’Utilisation

After periods of extended use, and during the break-in period, it 

may be necessary to adjust the auger drive cable. Follow these 

simple steps to adjust the auger drive cable:
1. 

Uncouple the power base and the snow thrower 

attachment from each other.

Always turn off the FLEX™ Power Base 

engine and remove the key prior to attempting to 

uncouple of the power base from the attachment.

2. 

Remove the plastic belt cover on the snow thrower 

attachment by removing the two self-tapping screws that 

secure it. Refer back to Figure 6-1.

3. 

Looking at the rear mounting plate of the snow thrower 

attachment, loosen (but do not remove) the left side hex 

screw shown in Figure 6-2.
Note: The other screw (to the right of the hex screw 

(previously loosened) is a shoulder bolt that does not need 

to be loosened.

4. 

On the front side of the mounting plate, move the cable 

tension guide up or down to remove any slack in the auger 

drive cable. See the left inset of Figure 6-2. 
Note: Be sure that the adjustment does not apply 

any pressure on the cable and the actuator arm. This 

adjustment is simply to remove the excess slack in the 

auger cable as shown in the right handed inset of Figure 

6-2.

5. 

Tighten the left hand side hex screw to complete this 

adjustment.

• 

Always observe safety rules when performing any type of 

maintenance.

• 

The warranty on this snow thrower does not cover items 

that have been subjected to operator abuse or negligence. 

To receive full value from the warranty, operator must 

maintain the snow thrower as instructed in this manual.

• 

Periodically check all fasteners and hardware to make sure 

these are tight.

Before servicing, repairing, lubricating, 

or inspecting, disengage all controls and stop 

engine. Wait until all moving parts have come to a 

complete stop. Disconnect spark plug wire and 

ground it against the engine to prevent unintended 

starting. Always wear safety glasses during 

operation or while performing any adjustments or 

repairs.

Refer to the FLEX™ Power Base operator’s manual 

for complete engine servicing instructions.
