SCRAPER BLADE

IMPORTANT: Damage to auger/impeller housing will

result if blade wears down too far.

Scraper blade is adjustable to compensate for wear.

To adjust scraper blade:

1. Tip unit back onto handlebar, support housing

and loosen nuts retaining blade.

2. Adjust runners to fully raised position (housing

closest to ground).

3. Reposition scraper blade flush with runners and

tighten lock nuts.

RUNNERS

Runners should be adjusted as conditions require

(Figure 21).

1. Position unit on a hard, flat, smooth level surface.

2. Adjust runners by inserting a spacer of desired

thickness under center of scraper blade, loosen

runner hardware, slide runners to flat surface.

Allow 1/8 in. (3 mm) between scraper blade and

hard smooth surfaces. Allow 1-1/4 in. (30 mm)

between scraper blade and uneven or gravel

surfaces. Retighten hardware.

NOTE: Keep housing level by adjusting runners

equally.

SHEAR BOLTS

IMPORTANT: Use only Ariens shear bolts for

replacement. Use of any other type of shear bolt may

result in severe damage to unit.

Occasionally a foreign object may enter the

auger/impeller housing and jam the auger, breaking

shear bolts (Figure 22) which secure the auger to the

shaft. This allows auger to turn freely on the shaft

preventing damage to gear drive.

For Replacement:

1. Align shear bolt holes in auger with shear bolt

holes in the shaft.

2. Drive shear bolt through hole (if shear bolt was

broken this will drive remaining part from shaft).

3. Secure shear bolt with nut.

HANDLEBAR HEIGHT

To raise or lower the handlebar:

1. Remove hair pin holding chute rod to control

assembly.

2. Place unit in service position (see Service

Position on page 19).

3. Remove bottom cover.

4. Remove top mounting bolts from the handlebars

and adjust the handlebar up or down as needed

until the handlebar mounting holes align with

holes in unit frame.

5. Secure handlebar to frame with hardware

removed in step 4 using the different hardware

locations shown in Figure 23.
