inspecting, disengage all clutch levers and
stop engine. Wait until all moving parts have
come to a complete stop. Disconnect spark
plug wire and ground it against the engine to
prevent unintended starting.
Augers
The augers are secured to the spiral shaft with two
shear bolts and hex lock nuts. Ifthe snow thrower hits a
foreign object or ice jam, hex bolts will shear.
• If the augers will not turn, check to see if the bolts
have sheared. Two replacement shear bolts and
hex lock nuts have been provided in the snow
thrower's hardware pack. For future use, order part
number 710-0890A (shear bolt 5/16-18 x 1.5") and
712-0429 (hex lock nut 5/16-18).

The shave plate and skid shoes on the bottom of the
snow thrower are subject to wear. They should be
checked periodically and replaced when necessary.
• To remove skid shoes, remove the four carriage
bolts, bell washers and hex nuts which attach them
to the snow thrower. Reassemble new skid shoes
with the four carriage bolts, bell washers (cupped
side goes against skid shoes) and hex nuts. Make
certain the skid shoes are adjusted to be level.
• To remove shave plate, remove carriage bolts, bell
