Attaching Shift Rod
(Hardware B)
IMPORTANT:
Attach the shift rod and clutch cables as
follows. Then check the adjustments and make any
final adjustments necessary before operating your
snow thrower. Failure to properly follow the
instructions may cause damage to the snow thrower.
• Place the shift lever (on the handle panel) in the
sixth (6) speed position (all the way forward).
• Place the bent end of the shift rod into the hole in
the shift arm assembly. Secure with flat washer
and hairpin clip. See Figure 9.
• Start threading the ferrule onto the other end of the
shift rod. Push down on the shift rod (and shift arm
assembly) as far as it will go.
• Thread the ferrule onto the shift rod until the
ferrule lines up with the upper hole in the shift lever
(beneath the handle panel). Insert the ferrule into
the upper hole in the shift lever from the left side
when adjustment is correct. Secure with flat
washer and hairpin clip.
• Check for correct adjustment of the shift rod as
instructed in the Final Adjustment section before
operating the snow thrower.
