proceed as follows:
1.
Remove the plastic belt cover on the front of the 
engine by removing the two self-tapping screws. 
Drain the gasoline from the snow thrower, or place 
a piece of plastic under the gas cap.
Carefully pivot the snow thrower up and forward so 
that it rests on the auger housing. 
2.
Remove the frame cover from the underside of the 
snow thrower by removing four self-tapping screws 
which secure it.
3.

both the idler bracket and the engine.
