Skid Shoe

The space between the shave plate and the ground can be 

adjusted by positioning the skid shoes. Refer to Skid Shoe 

Adjustment on page 10.

Track Drive Control / Auger Clutch Lock

The track drive control is located on the right handle. Squeeze 

the control grip against the handle to engage the track drive. 

Release to stop. 

NOTE: 

Always release the drive control before changing speeds. 

Failure to do so will result in increased wear on your machine’s 

drive system.
The drive control also locks the auger control so that you can 

operate the chute control handle without interrupting the snow 

throwing process. If the auger control is engaged simultaneously 

with the drive control, the operator can release the auger control 

(on the left handle) and the augers will remain engaged. Release 

both controls to stop the augers and the track drive.

Auger Control

The auger control is located on the left handle. Squeeze the 

control grip against the handle to engage the augers and start 

snow throwing action. Release to stop.

Augers

When engaged, the augers rotate and draw snow into the auger 

housing.

Chute Assembly

Snow drawn into the auger housing is discharged out the chute 

assembly.

Track Steering Controls

The left and right track steering controls are located on the 

underside of the handles and they are used to assist in steering 

the snow thrower. Squeeze the right track control when turning 

right, squeeze the left control when turning left. Operate your 

snow thrower in open areas until you become familiar with these 

controls. 

NOTE: 

It is easier to maneuver a non-running snow thrower with 

both track steering controls held in simultaneously.

Chute Directional Control

The chute directional control is located on the left side of the 

dash panel.

• 

To change the direction in which snow is thrown, squeeze 

the button on the joystick and pivot the joy-stick to the 

right or to the left.

• 

To change the angle/distance which snow is thrown, pivot 

the joystick forward or backward.
