To adjust chute control rod for increased
engagement into the handle panel control,
proceed as follows:

3. Reinsert hairpin clip (a) through this hole
and chute control rod.
Chute Assembly (Overhead Chute
Control) (If Equipped)
If chute fails to remain stationary during
operation, pre-load of chute can be adjusted
by tightening hex nut found on front of chute
control assembly.
1. To increase preload, tighten
hex nut (a) clockwise in ¼ turn intervals.
The chute control rod will need to be
held stationary when tightening the nut.
See Figure 4-12.

2. If chute directional control is difficult to
crank, decrease preload by loosening
hex nut counter-clockwise in ¼ turn
intervals.
Continuous Tracks
The snow thrower is equipped with an auto-
tensioner on both the left and right sides.
The system is designed to maintain constant
tension on both tracks. However, if the snow
thrower fails to propel itself because the track
wheel is “jumping” drive lugs, the tracks are
too loose and are in need of adjustment. See
an authorized Service Dealer to have the tracks
properly adjusted. See Figure 4-13.
