WARNING:
Make sure to turn off the switch and disconnect the extension
cord before performing any maintenance task on your snow thrower.
Lifetime Lubrication
Lubrication is not necessary and may damage the unit. The snow thrower is
lubricated for lifetime use at the factory before shipment.
General Maintenance Tips
1
. Do not attempt to repair the machine unless you have the proper tools and
instructions for disassembly and repair of the machine.
2
. Check the shear bolts and other bolts at frequent intervals for proper tightness
to ensure that the equipment is in safe working condition.
3.
After each snow removal session, run the snow thrower for a few minutes to
prevent the collector/impeller from freezing. Shut off the motor, wait for all
revolving parts to stop completely, and wipe residual ice and snow off the
unit. Rotate the chute crank several times to remove any excess snow.
Replacing the Rubber Plates
Note
: When replacing worn rubber plates, pay close attention to carefully
distinguish between the coarse and smooth side of the plates. Place the coarse
side inside and the smooth side outside.
1
. Detach the worn rubber plate by removing the two sets of nuts, bolts, and
washers used to secure it.
2
. Install the new rubber plate so that the coarse side faces inward and the
smooth side faces outward.
3
. Insert the bolt with the small flat washer into the corresponding holes on each
end of the rubber plate. Use the large flat washer and locknut to secure the bolt
on each end. Install the other rubber plates in the same way.
