personal injury. Disconnect the
extension cord before you perform any
maintenance.
1. LUBRICATING THE SNOWTHROWER
Lubrication is not necessary and may damage
the unit. The snow thrower is lubricated for
lifetime use at the factory before shipment.
2. GENERAL MAINTENANCE TIPS
1) Do not attempt to repair the machine
unless you have the proper tools and
instructions for disassembly and repair of
the machine.
2) Check the shear bolts and other bolts at
frequent intervals for proper tightness
to ensure that the equipment is in safe
working condition.
3) After each snow removal session, run the
snow thrower for a few minutes to prevent
the collector/impeller from freezing. Shut
off the motor, wait for all revolving parts to
stop completely, and wipe residual ice and
snow off the unit. Rotate the chute crank
several times to remove any excess snow.
3. REPLACING THE RUBBER PLATES
NOTE: When replacing worn rubber plates,
pay close attention to carefully distinguish
between the coarse and smooth side of the
plates. Place the coarse side inside and the
smooth side outside.
1) Detach the worn rubber plate by removing
the two sets of nuts, bolts, and washers
used to secure it.
2) Install the new rubber plate so that the
coarse side faces inward and the smooth
side faces outward (See Fig. W,X, Y).
3) Insert the bolt with the small flat washer
into the corresponding holes on each
end of the rubber plate. Use the large flat
washer and locknut to secure the bolt on
each end. Install the other rubber plates in
the same way (See Fig. W,X, Y).
a: Rubber plate; b: Rivet; c: Small flat washer;
d: Bolt; e: Auger; f: Large flat washer;
g: Locknut
4. REPLACING THE SCRAPER
i: Scraper; ii: Screw; iii: Screwdriver
The scraper is located at the base of the snow
thrower beneath the rotor housing
(See Fig. Z1).
1) Detach the worn scraper from the snow
thrower by removing the 3 screws that
hold it in place (See Fig. Z2).
2) Install the new scraper and fasten it
securely to the snow thrower with 3 screws
(See Fig. Z3).
5. REPLACING THE BELT
NOTE: Determine the left and right hand sides
of the snow thrower by standing behind the
unit in the normal operating position.
1) Remove the screws from the left panel of
the snowthrower.
2) Lift the belt tension and roll the large belt
off the big pulley (See Fig. Z4).
A-Big pulley; B-Belt tension; C-Large belt
3) Replace the large belt by following
instructions in reverse order.
STORAGE
1. Allow the motor to cool and clean the snow
thrower before storing or transporting. Be
sure to secure the unit while transporting.
2. Disconnect the extension cord from the
snow thrower.
3. Inspect the extension cord closely for signs
of wear or damage. Replace it if it is worn
or damaged.

worn, loose, or damaged parts. Check
connections and screws and tighten if
necessary. For repairing or replacing parts,
contact your WORX dealer.
