TO ADJUST AUGER CONTROL CABLE

There must ALWAYS be some slight noticeable slack in

the auger control cable when the auger is disengaged.

This allows Extension Spring to pull idler Arm/Brake,

which applies the brake to the Belt.

The auger clutch bail should travel 6-3/4 to 7-1/4”

(17.1-18.4 cm) before contacting handlebar.

A properly adjusted clutch must extend control cable

Spring approximately 1/4 to 3/8” (6-10 mm) before

clutch bail contacts handlebar.

1. Shut off engine.

2. Loosen locknut on threaded section of control

cable adjusting feature.

3. Turn solid section to provide some slight,

noticeable slack in cable.

4. Hold the solid section with a pliers and gently, with

a small wrench, tighten the locknut.

IMPORTANT: If there is still no resistance, the idler

position must be adjusted. See To Adjust Idler Position.

TO ADJUST IDLER POSITION

The idler must be as close as possible to the drive belt

when the auger clutch is disengaged, but not so close

that it causes auger rotation.

To adjust the idler position:

IMPORTANT: If adjustment cannot be achieved, the

Drive Belt must be replaced.

1. Shut off engine, allow to cool, and remove cowl.

2. Ensure control cable has some slight, noticeable

slack when auger clutch is disengaged (bail in

lowered position).

3. Ensure belt ﬁngers are properly adjusted. See To

Adjust Belt Finger.

4. Loosen idler hardware, reposition idler along slot in

idler arm, and tighten hardware.

5. Check for proper extension of control cable spring.

See To Adjust Auger Control Cable.

6. Start engine and ensure auger does not rotate

when auger clutch is disengaged.

7. Shut off engine.

8. Repeat the above steps until proper adjustment is

achieved.

9. Replace cowl.
