OPERAI=ION
TO USE WEIGHT TRANSFER SYSTEM
In hard packed or heavy snow conditions, conventional
snow throwers tend to ride up and leave uneven mounds
of snow behind. For these conditions, your new tracked
snow thrower has a unique weight transfer system (See
Fig,, 12) designed to minimize dde-up,.
The weight transfer system engaged shifts more weight
to the auger housing. This weight transfer keeps the
snow thrower in contact with the ground and reduces
ride-up on ice and snow..
In lighter' snow conditions or when transporting, you
should release the weight transfer system for easier
steering.
® To use the weight transfer system, lift up on upper
handle until bracket bolts snap into place in upper
slots of weight transfer pedal.
e To release, hold upper handle firmly and push down
on the weight transfer pedal with the ball of your fool
NOTE: The weight transfer system will not work if the
auger housing height adjust skids are adjusted to the
highest position
TRACK DRIVE/FREE-WHEEL FEATURE
The track system on your snow thrower has adrive/free_
wheel feature (See Fig, 12A) which allows the unit to be
transported easily without the engine being started..
® To use free-wheeling, lift up the loop of the kfick pin
in the front track wheel and pull the pin out Install the
pin through the hole in the shaft outside of the track
wheel Repeat on the opposite side of the unit
o To use normal drive, lift the loop of the klick pin from
the outside hole in the shaft.. Rotate the front track
wheel until the hole in the track wheel hub and the
outside hole in the shaft are in-line Place pin through
the hole in the track hub. Repeat on the opposite
side of the unit,.
NOTE: If unit does not move when engine is started,
check the pin locations, Pins on both sides of unit should
be in the normal drive position for unit to move,
