using

Sno-Thro.

NOTE:

Check

for

for

frozen

impeller

fan

before

starting

engine.

These

problems

arise

in

wet,

slushy

snow.

If

the

impeller

is

frozen,

it

is

best

freed

by

thawing

in

a

heated

garage

be

freed

by

starting

letting

it

run

long

enough

to

heat

up

the

carburetor

and

loosen

the

The

best

solution

for

both

problems

is

preventing

freezing.

run

for

a

short

time

before

shutting

down

to

throw

the

MAINTENANCE

Ariens

Company

recommends

thet

you

have

adjustments

made

by

your

local

Ariens

dealer.

He

has

the

tools

and

know¬

how

to

properly

perform

these

maintenance

adjustments

which

may

be

required

to

keep

the

Sno-Thro

operating

at

peak

efficiency.

The

Sno-Thro

is

equipped

with

the

finest

quality

engine

obtainable.

However,

should

servicing

be

required,

it

can

be

obtained

from

an

Ariens

dealer

or

an

authorized

engine

manufacturer's

service

station.

Should

you

decide

to

make

adjustments

on

your

Sno-Thro

yourself,

Ariens

recommends

that

you

call

your

dealer

for

the

answers

to

any

questions

that

might

arise

in

performing

this

work.

SHEAR

BOLT

REPLACEMENT

_

Occasionally

a

small

object

may

enter

the

collector

and

jam

the

rakes.

When

this

occurs,

the

shear

bolts

securing

the

rakes

to

the

shaft

will

break

and

allow

the

rake

to

turn

freely

on

the

shaft

preventing

damage

to

the

gear

drive.

When

this

happens,

turn

off

the

engine,

remove

wire

from

spark

plug,

remove

the

broken

shear

bolt

and

replace

with

a

new

ARIENS

shear

bolt.

Use

of

any

other

type

of

shear

bolt

may

result

in

severe

damage

to

the

machine.

USE

ONLY

ARIENS

SHEAR

BOLTS

FOR

REPLACEMENT.

The

runners

(12)

on

each

side

of

the

blower

housing,

and

the

scraper

blade,

along

the

back

of

the

blower

housing,

are

all

ad¬

justable

to

suit

conditions.

Raising

or

lowering

the

runners

controls

the

distance

the

scraper

blade

is

held

above

the

sur¬

face

being

cleared.

Runners

are

adjusted

by

loosening

the

two

nuts

securing

each

runner.

Move

the

runner

to

the

desired

position

and

retighten

the

nuts.

Be

sure

to

adjust

both

runners

to

the

same

height

to

keep

blower

housing

level.

Uneven

runners

make

the

machine

difficult

to

steer

and

will

result

in

an

uneven

clearing

job.

Adjustment

of

the

runners

is

critical

to

good

cleaning.

If

the

machine

is

to

be

used

on

a

gravel

surface

lower

the

runners

so

the.

blower

will

not

pick

up

gravel

then

after

the

remaining

snow

is

packed

down,

the

runners

may

be

raised

for

close

scraping.

On

smooth

concrete

or

blacktopped

surfaces,

the

runners

may

be

raised

so

the

scraper

blade

rests

on

the

sur¬

face

and

scrapes

clean.

The

scraper

is

adjustable

so

it

may

be

lowered

to

compensate

for

wear.

If

the

blade

is

allowed

to

wear

down

too

far

the

blower

housing

may

be

damaged.

ATTACHMENT

CLUTCH

ADJUSTMENT

The

Attachment

Clutch

is

adjusted

by

connecting

the

chain

to

the

spring

just

below

the

clutch

handle.

Connect

the

spring

to

a

chain

link

so

the

chain

is

snug

but

so

the

idler

drops

away

from

the

belt

with

the

handle

all

the

way

up.

WHEEL

DRIVE

CLUTCH

ADJUSTMENT

A

drive

disc

adjustment

is

provided

to

compensate

for

wear

on

the

friction

wheel.

If

slippage

occurs

when

the

wheal

drive

clutch

is

engaged,

tighten

the

drive

disc

adjustment.

This

adjustment

is

accessible

without

removing

the

bottom

cover.

See

Figure

8.

Adjust

as

follows:

Place

speed

selector

(T)

between

first

reverse.

Tip

machine

forward

on

blower

housing.

Tighten

the

adjustment

nut

while

turning

the

wheels

until

the

wheels

begin

to

bind.

Back

3

turns.

Wheels

should

then

turn

easily.

CHUTE

CRANK

ADJUSTMENT

In

the

event

the

chute

crank

fails

to

rotate

freely,

loosen

the

nut

securing

the

worm

clevis

to

the

bracket.

This

hole

in

the

bracket

is

slotted

to

permit

adjustment.

Position

the

worm

so

there

is

a

little

clearance

between

worm

and

the

gear

teeth

on

the

blower.

Tighten

the

nut.

Rotate

the

discharge

chute

through

its

full

travel

to

see

that

it

turns

easily.

Re¬

adjust

if

required.

Lubricate

as

described

under

LUBRICATION

for

smooth

operation.

BELT

REPLACEMENT

A

CAUTION

Since

replacing

the

belts

will

involve

turning

the

engine

over

with

the

starter,

and

the

engine

might

accidentally

start,

re¬

sulting

in

injury,

the

spark

plug

wire

MUST

be

disconnected

during

this

procedure.

The

drive

belt

and

the

attachment

drive

belt

are

both

accessible

by

removing

the

blower

housing

as

follows:

1.

Remove

the

hair

pin

cotter

in

the

chute

crank

assembly.

Separate

the

chute

crank.

2.

Remove

the

two

flanged

whizlock

screws

securing

the

belt

guard

to

the

tractor.

Remove

the

belt

guard.

NOTE:

Tipping

the

tractor

back

on

the

handlebars

when

separating

the

units

may

result

in

bending

the

bottom

cover.

To

avoid

this

situation,

either

tip

the

unit

up

on

the

blower

housing

and

remove

the

bottom

cover

before

separating

the

units;

or

support

the

handlebars

so

the

tractor

does

not

tip

all

the

way

over;

then

lift

off

the

blower

housing.

3.

Remove

the

cap

screws

on

each

side

that

secures

the

blower

housing

to

the

As

the

blower

housing

and

tractor

are

tipped

apart,

roll

the

belt

off

the

engine

sheave

between

the

sheave

and

belt

finger.

This

can

be

easily

done

by

pulling

the

recoil

starter

rope

to

rotate

the

engine

sheave.

With

the

belt

disconnected,

the

blower

housing

may

then

be

lifted

from

the

frame.

The

sno-thro

attachment

drive

belt

is

on

the

sheave

on

the

blower

housing.

To

replace

this

belt,

hold

the

impeller

brake

away

from

the

belt

and

slip

the

belt

from

the

sheave.

See

Figure

The

with

Ariens

Liquid

Grease-

(Part

This

grease

will

not

flow

at

It

is

therefore

difficult

to

check

the

lubricant

level.

Best

method

for

checking

is

to

place

the

unit

in

a

warm

location

overnight.

This

allows

the

lubrication

by

removing
