AUGER CLUTCH
The auger will not turn unless the auger clutch is
engaged. The auger must stop within 5 seconds after
the auger clutch is released.
The clutch cable must contain some slack when
you disengage the clutch lever for the auger to stop
properly.
If the auger no longer turns when the auger clutch is
engaged or if the belt slips under load, the auger cable
or belt may have stretched. This can be compensated
for by adjusting the auger clutch cable.
The upper hole in auger clutch lever provides for
an quick adjustment method. To adjust, unhook and
move the clutch cable to the upper position. Insert the
cable from the outside.
The cable adjuster link found under the spring cover
provides further adjustment options if required.
1. Slide up the spring cover and unhook the spring
from the adjuster link.
You can pull up the adjuster link and cable to make
unhooking the spring easier.
2. Move the Z-bend to a higher or lower hole on the
adjuster link as needed to obtain proper auger clutch
adjustment.
3. Hook the spring to the adjuster link and slide the
spring cover over the adjuster link.
Test the snow thrower to see if there is a noticeable
difference. If after the adjustment to the control cable
the auger still hesitates when rotating, replace the
auger belt.
