Shear Pin Replacement

e auger is attached to the spiral shaft with shear pins

secured with cotter pins. If the auger should strike a foreign

object or ice jam, the snow blower is designed to shear oﬀ

those pins (see Figure 15). If the auger will not rotate, check if

the pins have been sheared. When replacing shear pins, spray

an oil lubricant into the shaft before inserting new pins.

Shave Plate and Skid Shoes

e shave plate and skid shoes on the bottom of the

snow blower are subject to wear. ey should be checked

periodically and replaced when necessary.

To remove skid shoes:

1. Remove the four carriage bolts and hex ﬂange nuts which

secure them to the snow blower (see Figure 16).

2. Reassemble new skid shoes with the four carriage bolts

(two on each side) and hex ﬂange nuts.

To remove shave plate:

1. Remove the carriage bolts and hex nuts which attach it to

the snow blower housing (see Figure 16).
