Покрокове керівництво із заміни:
- Prepare the Snow Blower:
- Ensure the engine is off and cool. Disconnect the spark plug wire for safety.
- Position the snow blower on a stable, flat surface.
- Remove the Belt Cover:
- Locate and remove the screws holding the belt cover on the side of the engine. Carefully remove the cover to expose the pulleys and belts.
- Disengage the Chute Control Rod:
- Pull the pin that secures the chute control rod to its bracket. This will disengage the chute control.
- Remove the Belt Tensioner Cable:
- Identify the cable connected to the belt tensioner pulley. This cable runs from the handle down to the tensioner.
- Remove the bolts (typically 10mm) holding the bracket for the belt tensioner cable. This will allow you to detach the cable from the tensioner.
- Separate the Auger Housing:
- Locate the three nuts (typically 1/2 inch or 13mm) on each side of the snow blower that connect the auger housing (front part) to the main body of the machine.
- Carefully remove these six nuts.
- Gently separate the auger housing from the main body. This will expose the auger belt for replacement.
- Replace the Auger V-Belt:
- Remove the old, worn auger V-belt from the pulleys.
- Place the new PowerSmart 302040091 V-belt over the pulleys. Ensure it is correctly seated in the grooves.
- Reassemble the Snow Blower:
- Carefully bring the auger housing back into alignment with the main body.
- Reinstall the six nuts (three on each side) that secure the auger housing. Tighten them securely.
- Reattach the belt tensioner cable to its bracket and secure it with the bolts.
- Reinstall the chute control rod and secure it with its pin.
- Replace the belt cover and secure it with its screws.
