RAISING AND LOWERING
•  To raise, push down on the lift handle until the snow 
thrower locks in the raised transport position.
•  To lower, push down slightly on the lift handle and pull 
the trigger. With the trigger pulled, slowly lower the 
snow thrower until it reaches the ground.

LUBRICATION
Oil all pivot points on the snow thrower.
•  Oil the pivot points of the two idler arms on the clutch/
idler assembly.
•  Apply penetrating oil to the control cables of the 
discharge chute.
•  Apply a good grade of spray lubricant to the trigger 
assembly and the chute tilt control assembly.
CAUTION
:   Do not operate the snow 
thrower without the rear weight attached 
to the tractor to provide extra traction and 
stability.
MAINTENANCE
CHECK SCRAPER AND SHOES FOR WEAR
(Refer to fi gures 59 and 60 on page 27)
•  The scraper plate and skid shoes on the bottom of the 
snow thrower are subject to wear. To prevent damage 
to the spiral auger housing, replace plate and shoes 
before wear is excessive.
REMOVING SNOW 
Snow removal conditions vary greatly from light fl uffy 
snowfall to wet heavy snow. Operating instructions must 
be fl exible to fi t the conditions encountered. The operator 
must adapt the lawn tractor and snow thrower to depth of 
snow, wind direction, temperature and surface conditions.
•  Before beginning operation, thoroughly inspect the 
area of operation and remove all door mats, sleds, 
boards, wires and other foreign objects.
•  The spiral auger speed is directly related to engine 
speed. For maximum snow removal and discharge, 
maintain high engine r.p.m. (full throttle). It is advisable 
to operate the lawn tractor at a slow ground speed 
(1st gear) for safe and effi cient snow removal.
•  In deep, drifted or banked snow it will be necessary to 
use full throttle and a slow ground speed (1st gear). 
Drive forward into the snow, depress the tractor's 
clutch-brake pedal and allow the spiral auger to clear 
the snow. Repeat this method until a path is cleared. 
On the second pass, overlap the fi rst enough to allow 
the snow thrower to handle the snow without repeated 
stopping and starting of forward motion.
•  In extremely deep snow, raise the snow thrower from 
the ground to remove the top layer and drive forward 
only until the tractors front tires reach the uncleared 
bottom layer of snow. Depress the tractor's clutch-
brake pedal and allow the spiral auger to clear the 
snow. Reverse the tractor and lower the snow thrower 
to the ground. Drive the tractor forward until the snow 
again becomes too deep. Repeating this process into 
and out of drifts will eventually clear even the deepest 
of snow piles.
•  If the snow thrower becomes clogged with snow or 
jammed with a foreign object, disengage the snow 
thrower immediately and shut off the tractor engine. 
Unclog the snow thrower before resuming operation.
OPERATING TIPS
•  Discharge snow down wind whenever possible.
•  To help prevent snow from sticking to the snow thrower, 
allow the snow thrower to reach outdoor temperature 
before using it. A light coat of wax may also be applied 
to the inside surface of the snow thrower housing and 
discharge chute.
•  Use tire chains to improve traction.
•  Use rear wheel weights to improve traction.
•  Before the fi rst snowfall, remove all stones, sticks and 
other objects which could become hidden by the snow. 
Permanent obstacles should be marked for visibility.
•  Overlap  each  pass  slightly  to  assure  complete  snow 
removal.
DANGER
:   Shut off engine and 
disengage snow thrower before 
unclogging discharge chute. Unclog using 
a wooden stick, not your hands.
