Maintenance
Lubrication
Lubricate the snow thrower as follows:
Gear Shaft: Lubricate the Gear Shaft with 6-n-1 grease at least
once a season or after every 25 hours of operation (available at
automotive stores).
important! Keep all grease and oil off of the rubber friction wheel
and aluminum drive plate.
Gear Case: The gear case is lubricated with grease at the factory
and it does not require checking. If disassembled for any reason,
lubricated with 2 ounces (60ml) of shell Alvania grease EPR00,
Before reassembling, remove old sealant and apply new sealant.
important! Do not overfill the gear case, since damage to the
seals could result. Be sure the vent plug is free of grease in order
to relieve pressure.
Drive and Shifting Mechanism: Lubricate at least once a
season or after 25 hours of operation. Remove the rear cover
and lubricate any chains, sprockets, gears, bearings, shafts,
and shifting mechanism at least once a season. Use engine
oil or a spray lubricant. Avoid getting oil on the friction wheel
rubber and aluminum drive plate. (see Fig. 13)
Auger Bearings: Every season lubricate the auger bearings and
the bearings on the side of the frame with light oil. (see Fig. 15)
Auger Shaft: At a minimum, once a season remove the shear
pins on the auger shaft. Spray lubricant inside the shaft and
lubricate the plastic auger bearings. (see Fig.15)
