To remove and replace your snow thrower’s auger belt,
proceed as follows:
1. Remove the plastic belt cover on the front of the
engine by removing the two self-tapping screws. See
Figure 6-4.
2 Carefully pivot the snow thrower up and forward so
that it rests on the auger housing. See Figure 6-5.
3. Remove the frame cover from the underside of the
snow thrower by removing four self-tapping screws
which secure it.
4. a. Roll the auger belt off the engine pulley.
b. Use a wrench to pivot the idler pulley toward the
right. See Figure 6-9.
c. Lift the drive belt off engine pulley.
5. Back out the stop bolt until the support bracket rests
on the auger pulley. See Figure 6-10.
6. Slip the drive belt off the pulley and between friction
wheel and drive plate. See Figure 6-10.
7. Remove and replace belt in the reverse order.
NOTE: Repeat the drive control adjustment on page 12
before operating the snowthrower.
Friction Wheel Removal
If the snow thrower fails to drive with the drive control
engaged, and performing the drive control cable adjust-
ment on page 12 fails to correct the problem, the friction
wheel may need to be replaced. Follow the instructions
below. Examine the friction wheel for signs of wear or
cracking and replace if necessary.
WARNING: Run the engine com-
pletely dry of gasoline before tipping
snowthrower.

2 Carefully pivot the snow thrower up and forward so
that it rests on the auger housing.
3. a. Remove the frame cover from the underside of the
snow thrower by removing four self-tapping screws
which secure it. See Figure 6-5.
b. Remove the right-hand wheel by removing the
screw and cupped washer which secure it to the
axle.
4. Carefully remove the hex nut and washer which
secures the hex shaft to the snow thrower frame and
lightly tap the shaft’s end to dislodge the ball bearing
from the right side of the frame. See Figure 6-11.
