Be thoroughly familiar with the controls and proper use of the equipment. Know how to stop the unit and disengage the controls quickly. 2. Wear adequate winter outer garments while operating the equipment. 5. Check the oil level in the reduction box and if necessary, add AGMA 5EP, SAE 80W90 gear oil or equivalent. 3. Make sure the snowblower is clear of snow and other material before engaging the snowblower. 8. Before engaging the snowblower drive, always have the engine running at idle. 6. Check the three shear bolts, one on each auger section and one between the fan and gearbox for proper tightness. 7. Adjust the skid shoes so the snowblower runs leveled. 9. Operate the engine RPM. 4. Make sure the auger and fan operate freely. snowblower at maximum OPERATING CONTROLS Engine Speed 1. Start the tractor engine. Let the engine warm up at least one minute before engaging the drive mechanism then increase speed gradually. 2. Make sure the snowblower head is properly positioned and engage the drive mechanism. 3. Adjust the ground speed according to conditions. For maximum power, run engine at or near full throttle. WARNING To avoid serious personal injury: Do not use your hands to unclog the chute. Use a 36" (925mm) stick or board. Do not attempt to unclog the chute while engine is running. If the chute is clogged, shut off the tractor engine, remove the key and clear the snow from the chute. Engaging the Drive Mechanism IMPORTANT : Use full RPM power when removing wet, sticky snow. Low RPM power will tend to clog the chute. Refer to the tractor's operating manual for instructions. Up and Down Control Refer to the tractor operator’s manual(s) for detailed hydraulic operation. OM 0373SB-A 19 OPERATION Skid Shoe Adjustment WARNING (Figure 8) Adjust the snowblower so that the skid shoes run level and according to the surface conditions so that stones are not thrown with the snow. To avoid serious personal injury: Make sure tractor engine and snowblower come to a complete stop and tractor drive mechanism is disengaged BEFORE making any adjustments. Deflector Adjustment Adjust both skid shoes to the same height to keep the cutting edge level and adjust upwards for smooth surfaces. The deflector angle must be set according to the distance the snow must be thrown. To adjust the angle: Loosen skid shoe nuts (item 2), adjust according to instructions below and securely tighten nuts: • Place yourself behind the snowblower and loosen the two deflector knobs on the side and adjust the deflector at the appropriate angle. • Tighten the knobs. Clearance between cutting edge and surface (fig.8, position 1): • Level paved surface : Adjust to 1/16" to 1/8" • Uneven or gravel surface: Adjust to 1/2" to 5/8" Figure 8 OM 0373SB-A 20 OPERATION SNOW REMOVAL METHODS When removing snow, do not use the snowblower as a dozer blade to push snow. Let the snowblower work its way through deep drifts. If the speed of your tractor is too fast, the snowblower may become overloaded and clog. For best results, raise the snowblower and remove a top layer of snow. A second pass with the snowblower will remove the remaining snow. IMPORTANT: Use full RPM power when removing wet, sticky snow. Low RPM power will tend to clog the chute. WARNING: Do not use hands or feet to unclog chute. Do not attempt to clear clogged chute of snow while tractor engine is running. If the chute clogs, disengage the drive shaft, shut off the tractor engine, remove the ignition key, wait for all movement to stop, and then clear the snow from the chute. A definite pattern of operation is required to thoroughly clean the snow area. These patterns will avoid throwing snow in unwanted places as well as eliminating a second removal of snow Where it is possible to throw the snow to the left and right (above), as on a long driveway, it is advantageous to start in the middle. Plow from one end to the other, throwing snow to both sides without changing the direction of the discharge guide OM 0373SB-A If the snow can only be thrown to one side of the driveway or sidewalk (above), start on the opposite side. At the end of the first pass, rotate the discharge guide 180 degrees for the return pass. At the end of each succeeding pass, rotate the discharge guide 180 degrees to maintain direction of throw in the same area. 21 MAINTENANCE M AINTENANCE ALWAYS USE GENUINE PARTS WHEN REPLACEMENT PARTS ARE REQUIRED WARNING To avoid serious personal injury: • Before cleaning, adjusting or repairing the snowblower: bring the tractor to a complete stop, lower the implement shut off the engine and remove the ignition key. • Never park the tractor inside a building where an open flame or sparks are present. Allow the engine to cool down before storing in any enclosure. • Run the snowblower a few minutes after blowing snow to prevent freeze up of auger and fan. • Provide adequate blocking before working under the snowblower when in raised position. Gearbox and Reduction Box When servicing either the gearbox or the reduction box, the tightness of the casing must be restored. To do so, apply a layer of silicone to the casing before closing it. Allow the silicone to cure for at least 24 hours before filling it with oil. Shear Bolts (Figure 9) 1. Always use a special grade 8 one grooved shear bolt, gold plated (#667786) on fan (item 1) and special grade 5 two grooved shear bolts, silver plated (#657295) on the auger (item 2) as shown on decal (#2500577). 2. Check shear bolts at frequent intervals for proper tightness to be sure the snowblower is in safe working condition. Torque must be at 9 lbs-ft (12 N-M) Figure 9 OM 0373SB-A 22 MAINTENANCE Auger Repositioning (Figure 10) Drive Chain Tension Adjustment (Figure 11) After shear bolt breakage on one of the augers, make sure to reposition the augers as shown on the figure 10. Remove the driveline guard. Loosen the four bolts securing the reduction box to the snowblower. Tighten the chain in order to leave approximately 1/4" deflection. Tighten the four bolts securing reduction box to the snowblower and reinstall the driveline guard.
