SERVICING YOUR SNOWBLOWER
SKID SHOES AND SCRAPER
Turn the engine switch to the OFF position, and disconnect the spark
plug cap, so the engine cannot be accidentally started while you are
near the auger.
The skid can be installed at the rear or side of the auger housing.
The initial position set at the factory is rear.
Select the installation position for your convenience.
Remove the bolts to uninstall the skid, and then set the skid to the
convenient position and tighten the bolts securely.
Wear inspection
1.Raise the auger housing off the ground.
Track type: Step on the foot pedal (see page 14), and raise the auger
to the highest position.
Wheel type: Place a block of wood under the scraper to support the
auger.
2.Measure the thickness of the right and left skid shoes at their
thinnest point.
If the thickness of the skid contacting the ground surface is 0.02 in
(0.5 mm), turn the skid upside down.
Replace the skid if the thickness is less than 0.02 in (0.5 mm) after
turning the skid upside down.
