ASSEMBLY
Auger Control
WARNING
Prior to operating your snow blower, carefully read and follow all
instructions below. Perform all adjustments to verify your snow blower is
operating safely and properly.
Check the adjustment of the auger control as follows:
1. The auger control is located on the left handle. See Figure 37 inset. When
the auger control is released and in the disengaged “UP” position, the cable
should have very little slack. It should NOT be tight.
2. In a well-ventilated area, start the snow blower engine as instructed in
Starting Engine on page 25-24 in the Operation section of this manual.
3. While standing in the operator’s position (behind the snow blower), engage
the auger.
4. Allow the auger to remain engaged for approximately ten seconds before
releasing the auger control. Repeat this several times.
5. With the auger control in the disengaged “UP” position, walk to the front of
the machine.
6. Confirm that the auger has completely stopped rotating and shows NO signs
of motion. If the auger shows ANY signs of rotating, immediately return to
the operator’s position and shut OFF the engine. Wait for ALL moving parts
to stop before adjusting the auger control.

7. To readjust the control cable, loosen the upper hex bolt on the auger cable
bracket. See Figure 37.
8. Position the bracket upward to provide more slack (or downward to increase
cable tension).
9. Retighten the upper hex bolt.
10. Repeat Step 2 through Step 6 above to verify proper adjustment has been
achieved.
