IMPORTANT:
If the right hand lock-out cable is not
adjusted correctly, the wheels will tend to turn. If the left
hand lock-out cable is not adjusted correctly, the
augers will keep on rotating.
NOTE: Please note that the drive clutch cable on units
with 16” wheels is routed under the axle. In other units,
the cable is routed over the axle.
WARNING:
Do not over-tighten the clutch
cables. Tension on either cable in the
disengaged (up) position may override the
safety features of the machine.
