Remove and discard plastic bag that covers unit.

Check the crate thoroughly for loose parts before 
discarding.

The snow thrower is shipped with the following 
loose parts in the carton. Refer to Figure 1 for

Note that these shear bolts and hex lock nuts are 
not meant for initial assembly of the equipment. If 
the snow thrower hits a foreign object or ice jam, 
the bolts securing the auger shaft may shear. Use 
these two shear bolts and nuts as replacement 
parts only. Store these in a safe place until needed.

 NEVER replace the auger shear bolts with 

standard hex bolts. Any damage to the auger gearbox 
or other components from standard hex bolts will not be 
covered by your snow thrower’s warranty.

NOTE:  Reference to the left or right side of the snow
thrower in this manual is observed from the operator’s
position.

 Make any final adjustments, as instructed 

later on in this section, before operating your snow 
thrower. Failure to follow these instructions may cause 
damage to the snow thrower.
