See Figure 9. Figure 9 Crank Lower Chute Upper Chute Crank Cables Tilt Chute Upper Chute Bracket Crank Hairpin Clip Cable Guide • Tighten all loose hardware on the handle assembly in the following order — first the hex bolts at the bottom of the handle, then the carriage bolts and lastly the hex bolts on the rear of the handle panel. Attaching Clutch Cables The clutch control cables are attached to the snow thrower. If the cables are attached to the top of the engine with cable ties, cut the cable ties now. The Z ends of the clutch cables are hooked into the clutch grips on each handle. • Ensure there is a hex jam nut threaded all the way up the threaded portion of the Z fitting; extras are supplied in the hardware pack. See Figure 10. • Place the clutch grip in the raised (up) position. Hex Jam Nut Z Fitting Hex Jam Nut Outer portion (Viewed from the underside of the control panel) of cut-out Flats Ferrule Barrel Figure 10 • Swing the left auger up making sure the cable is routed correctly in the cable roller guides located at the lower rear of the unit. • Hold the end of the cable at the barrel so the ferrule turns freely without twisting the cable. Thread the ferrule on to the Z fitting. You may have to pull on the cable slightly to relieve tension. Keep the ferrule turning without twisting the cable. • You will reach correct adjustment when there is minimal slack in the cable but it is not tight. Hold the flats on the ferrule with pliers and tighten the jam nut against the ferrule. CAUTION: Cables will become loose if you do not tighten the jam nut. WARNING: There must not be any tension on either clutch cable with the drive or auger clutch grip in the disengaged (up) position. These clutches are a safety feature. Do not override their function by allowing tension on either cable with the clutches disengaged. Attaching Shift Rod • Place the shift lever in the sixth (6) speed. • Place the bent end of the shift rod into the hole in the shift arm assembly. See Figure 11. Secure with 5/16 flat washer and hairpin clip from the hardware pack (group D on page 5). • Start threading the ferrule (included in the same group in the hardware pack) onto the other end of the shift rod. It has to line up with the upper hole in the shift lever (beneath the handle panel). While aligning the ferrule, push down on the shift rod and the shift arm assembly as far as it will go. • Once the ferrule slides into the hole, turn it counter-clockwise one more full turn and insert it in the hole in the shift lever.

See Figure 11. • Make certain to check for correct adjustment of the shift rod as instructed in the Adjustment section before operating the snow thrower. 9 10 Attaching Turn Triggers • Make sure that the right hand trigger cable is routed in front of the traction drive cable. • Feed the trigger cable up through the outer side of the slot in the handle panel. Do not feed the cable through the same side of the slot as the Z fitting. • Place the cable barrel fitting into the hole in the trigger. You can find the triggers and associated hardware in group H of the hardware pack (on page 5). Pull on the cable and rotate it around the bottom of the trigger, with the inner cable in the slot, until the cable end can be pushed into the trigger housing and snapped tight. See Figure 12. Figure 12 Note: When the cable is installed correctly, it should not be possible to pull cable out of the trigger housing. • Place the right turn trigger in position underneath the right handle. Secure with screw and weld nut from group H of the hardware pack. See Figure 13. You will need a phillips screwdriver for tightening the screw. Repeat on left side. Figure 13 • Secure the right turn trigger cable to the right lower handle, using cable tie provided in the Barrel Fitting Trigger Housing Trigger Assembly Cable snaps in at this end Cable Inner Cable Slot Secure with screw Weld Nut Slot Trigger Cable Trigger Turn hardware pack. Make sure to route the cable tie over the drive cable. See Figure 14. Figure 14 • Secure the left turn trigger cable to the lower handle using the other cable tie. Make sure to route the cable tie below the auger drive cable so that when the trigger cable is secured by the cable tie, the auger drive cable is left outside the cable tie.Trim excess ends from each cable tie. NOTE: The right side cable tie must be used to keep cable from coming in contact with the moving shift arm from the transmission. Lamp Wiring • Wrap the wire from the l...
