Speed Selector Rod
To adjust the Speed Selector Rod:
NOTE: Inspect the drive platter and friction wheel
before adjusting the Speed Selector Cable.
Ensure that the friction wheel can freely
travel trough the whole range of positions.
NOTE: A damaged or binding friction wheel can
mimic a speed selector cable that is out of
adjustment.
1. Place the Speed Selector Lever in the fastest for-
ward speed position.
2. Remove the hair pin clip and washer from the upper
end of the selector rod. See Figure 2.24.
3. Slide the ferrule out of the speed selector lever.
4. Loosen the jam nut.
5. Adjust the ferrule until the ferrule lines up with the
hole in the speed selector lever without pulling on
the rod. See Figure 2.25.
NOTE: When adjusted, the rod needs to be parallel
with the axis of the snow thrower.
6. Reinstall the washer and hair pin clip.
7. Test run the unit in a safe area before returning it to
service.
