DriveWheels
The wheels may be adjusted for two different methods
of operation. The adjustment is made by placing the
click pin in one of two different holes on the right side of
the unit. See Figure 22.
One Wheel Driving: Insert the click pin only
through the outside hole of the axle (not the rim)
on the right side of the snow thrower. This position
gives power drive to the left wheel only, making the
unit easier to maneuver.
Both Wheels Driving: Insert the click pin through
the hole in the hub of the rim and the inside hole
on the snow thrower's right axle. This position is
good for heavy snow as there is power drive in
both wheels.
IMPORTANT:Never operate the snow thrower with the
click pin inserted through both the rim and the outside
hole in the axle. Doing so can result in serious damage
to the drive system.
