Assembling the Discharge Chute
For shipping reasons, the snow thrower has been
packaged with the upper chute pivoted all the way
down as shown in Figure 2. To pivot it upward, proceed
as follows:
1. Turn the chute until the chute opening is facing
straight ahead.
2. Remove the wing knob, flat washer and carriage
bolt from the lower chute.
3. Pivot the upper chute upward over the lip on the
lower chute so that there is NO gap between the
upper chute and the lower chute.
4. Resecure with the hardware just removed.
CAUTION: Do not use the Chute
Handle to lift the machine.
