5. Adjust the shoes with the screws (1:H) to suit the ground
conditions:
- On flat ground, e.g. asphalt, the shoes should be about
3mm under the scraping blade.
- On uneven ground, e.g. gravel paths, the shoes should
be about 30mm under the scraping blade.
Always adjust the shoes so that gravel and stones
are not fed into the snow thrower. There is a risk
for personal injury if these are thrown out at high
speed.
Ensure the shoes are adjusted the same on both sides.
5. Adapt the speed so that the snow is thrown in an even
stream.
If snow fastens in the chute do not try to remove it
before:
- Releasing both clutch levers.
- Stopping the engine.
- Disconnecting the cable from the spark plug.
- Do not put your hand inside the chute or auger.
Use the chute clearing tool supplied.
5.9 AFTER USE
1. Check for loose or damaged parts. If required, change
damaged parts.
2. Tighten loose screws and nuts.
3. Brush all the snow from the machine.
4. Move all the controls backwards and forwards a few
times.
5. Put the choke in closed position.
6. Disconnect the starting cable from the spark plug.
Do not cover the machine while the engine and
silencer are still warm.
6 MAINTENANCE
6.1 MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
Service item Frequency
Motor oil change After 2 hours and
then every 20:th h
Drive belts, check After 2 hours and
then every year.
Linkages, lubricate Once per year
Tyre pressure, 50 hour
check
Spark plug check/ 100 hour
replace
6.2 OIL CHANGE
Change the oil the first time after 2 hours of operation, and
subsequently every 20 hours of operation or once a season.
Change oil when the engine is warm.
The engine oil may be very warm if it is drained off
directly after the engine is shut off. So allow the
engine to cool a few minutes before draining the
oil.
1. Lean the snow thrower slightly so that the oil draining
plug (1:Q) is the lowest point of the engine.

2. Unscrew the oil draining plug.
3. Let the oil run out into a container.
4. Screw back the oil draining plug.
5. Fill with new oil: See ""checking the engine oil level
(FIG. 11)" på sidan 47" above for type and amount.
6.3 SPARK PLUG
Check the spark plug once a year or every hundred hours of
use.
Clean or change the plug if the electrodes are burnt. The
engine manufacturer recommends: LD F7TC or equivalent.
Correct spark gap: 0.7-0.8 mm.
6.4 CARBURETTOR
The carburettor is factory set. If adjustment is required,
contact an authorised service station.
6.5 TYRE PRESSURE
The air pressure should be equal in both tires for best
performance. Be sure to keep caps on valves to prevent entry
of debris into the valve stem when tires are filled.
Recommended air pressure: 1.2 bar.
6.6 LUBRICATION
No service must be carried out before:
- The engine has stopped.
- The cable has been disconnected from the spark
plug.
6.6.1 Linkages
See fig. 12. Lubricate the linkages below every 10:th hour of
use and before long time storage. Use 10W oil.
• Lever bearings
• Drive belt tension arm
• Auger belt tension arm
6.6.2 Gearbox
No parts inside the gearbox are to be lubricated. All bearings
and bushings are permanently lubricated and require no
maintenance.
Lubricating these parts will only result in the grease getting
on to the friction wheel and disc drive plate, which could
damage the rubber clad friction wheel.
For long time storage the above-mentioned parts should be
lightly wiped with an oily rag to prevent rust.

7 SERVICE AND REPAIRS

No service must be carried out before:
- The engine has stopped.
- The starting cable has been disconnected from
the spark plug.
If the instructions say that the machine is to be lifted at the
front and rested on the auger housing then the petrol tank
must be emptied.
Empty the petrol tank outdoors when the engine is
cold. Do not smoke. Empty into a container
designed for petrol.
