How To Use Your Service Manual

The Ariens Service manual is arranged for quick, easy reference and is divided into numerical sections. Each section is then divid ed into sub-sections. To use this manual pro ceed as follows:

Refer to the index to determine section within Which desired information will be contained and proceed to front of that section for its Table of Contents.

across from subject and consists of section

number and page number. NOTE: Read all information for servicing a part

or system before repair work is started to avoid needless disassembly.

Preparation For Service Proper preparation is very important for effi

cient service work. A clean work area at the start of each job will allow you to perform the

repair as easily and quickly as possible, and

reduce incidences of misplaced tools and parts. A sno-thro that is excessively dirty should be cleaned before work starts. Cleaning will occasionally uncover trouble sources. Tools, instruments and parts needed for the job should be gathered before work is started.

Interrupting a job to locate tools or parts is a needless delay.

Figure 6-4: Attachment Clutch and Impeller

Brake

To check and/or adjust impeller brake, tip unit

forward onto auger/impeller housing. Remove bottom cover by removing rear and loosening front cap screws.

Measure distance between impeller brake shoe and belt with attachment clutch engaged.

When attachment clutch is disengaged, brake

must contact belt. If impeller brake shoe is not 1/16 to 1/8 inch

from belt, disengage clutch (release bail), loosen attachment idler nut, reposition idler to compensate for belt length, and tighten nut.

6-5

Auger/Impeller - Discharge Chute

Adjust attachment clutch cable with clutch disengaged. Pull clutch chain taught and con

nect chain link to spring. Spring should extend approximately 3/8” with clutch engaged. With clutch disengaged, clutch arm should fall to its

maximum down position.

6.5 Scraper Blade

IMPORTANT: If blade wears too far, auger/im-

peller housing may be damaged.

Scraper blade on models with runners is ad

justable to compensate for wear.

To adjust scraper blade, tip unit back onto

handlebar, support housing, and loosen nuts

retaining blade. With runners adjusted to their

full up position, reposition scraper blade down,

flush with runners, and tighten lock nuts.

6.6 Auger Rubber

On 2 -I- 2 models, the rubber edges on auger will wear and require replacement after a

period of use. Two replacement kits are

available.

The first procedure replaces both the right and

left augers requiring the removal of the augers

and impeller from the auger/impeller housing.

Then removing augers from auger shafts, plac

ing new augers onto auger shafts and reas

sembling unit.

3 1

Shear Bolt Scraper Blade Auger

Figure 6-5: Shear Bolts and Scraper Blade

On 2 + 2 models, scraper blade is adjustable to compensate for wear and to control traction.

Best operation occurs if scraper blade edge

leaves a fine dusting of snow with auger tracks (auger propels unit). Adjust scraper blade equally its full length if machine does not

scrape cleanly or if machine does not drive for

ward properly. To adjust scraper blade, tip unit back and rest

unit on handlebar. Loosen nuts on carriage

bolts along scraper support. If unit does not

scrape cleanly, move scraper blade forward. If

unit does not drive forward and scraper blade

drags, move scraper blade to the rear.

1. Drill {Va” or larger)

2. Auger

3. Rubber Edge

4. Access Hole

Figure 6-6: Auger Rubber Replacement

The second procedure replaces the rubber edges and requires the drilling off of rivets holding old rubber edge to segment by means of a 1/4” diameter or larger drill bit. (An access hole is provided on sides of auger/impeller housing for access to outer rivets.) Then posi tioning new rubber edge on segment and se curing with bolts, flat washers and lock nuts.

NOTE: Be sure scraper support is fully engaged

in groove of scraper blade. Tighten hardware

and test unit. Repeat adjustment as required

until proper operation is obtained.

NOTE: After repiacement of auger rubber edges, adjust scraper biade per instruction in Adjustments Section.

6-6

Auger/Impeller - Discharge Chute

6.7 Shear Bolt Replacement

IMPORTANT: Use only Ariens Shear Bolts for replacement. Use of any other type of shear bolt may result In severe damage to unit.

Occasionally an object may enter auger/

impeller housing and jam auger, breaking shear bolts which secure auger to shaft. This allows auger to turn freely on shaft, preventing damage to gear drive.

To replace shear bolt, slide auger outward and align hole in shaft with hole in auger (holes in

shaft for shear bolts line up). Drive new shear bolt through hole (if old shear bolt was broken, this will drive remaining part from shaft), and secure with nut.

6.8 Runners

CAUTION: Adjust auger/impeller hous

ing height to clear gravel or crushed

rock surfaces.

Position Sno-Thro on a flat, level surface. Ad

just runners by inserting a spacer of desired thickness under center of scraper blade,

loosen hardware, slide runners to flat surface

and tighten hardware. Note: Above method keeps housing level by ad

justing runners equally. Uneven runners make machine difficult to steer and result in uneven clearing.

6.9 Discharge Chute Removal

On models with discharge chute crank rod going through handlebar panel, remove hair pin from discharge chute crank rod and slide rod out through handlebar panel. Remove hard ware attaching bracket to engine/motor and lift discharge chute off auger/impeller housing.

Remove gear cover by removing two taptites on cover.

Remove flat gear by removing nut securing car

riage bolt to center of flat gear.

Runners should be adjusted as conditions re

quire. Raising or lowering runners controls distance scraper blade is held above surface

being cleared. When operating machine on gravel surface, lower runners so that housing will not pick up gravel. On concrete, blacktop,

or packed down snow surfaces, raise runners

so scraper blade scrapes clean. To reduce tendency of housing to ride up over heavy, wet, or hard-packed snow, remove runners and in stall with narrow edge down.

Engine and Headlight

8.1 Introduction

WARNING: Stop engine, remove key,

wait for moving parts to stop and remove wire from spark plug (keep wire away from spark plug to prevent accidental starting) before attempting any lubrica tion or maintenance procedures.

CAUTION: DO NOT touch engine or SnoThro drive parts which are hot from operation. Allow such parts to cool before servicihg unit.

8.2 Engine Oil

Checking

The engine crankcase oil should be checked daily or every 5 hours of operation. Oil level

MUST be maintained in safe operating range

on dipstick at all times or engine damage will

result

To check oil, park sno-thro on a flat, level sur face, stop engine, and wipe all debris from around dipstick cap. Remove dipstick and wipe

oil off. Screw dipstick assembly firmly but slowly until cap bottoms on tube. Remove dipstick and observe oil level.

Drain crankcase by removing oil drain plug.

When oil has drained, replace plug and refill

engine with new oil of proper grade (per engine manufacturer’s instructions). Recheck oil level with dipstick.

8.3 Engine Cooling

The engine is air cooled. Air must circulate freely around engine from air intake screen, over cooling fins on cylinder head and block to

prevent overheating. Every 100 operating hours or yearly (more often

if conditions require) remove blower housing

and clean cooling fins. Also clean external sur faces of your engine of dust, dirt and oil deposits which can contribute to improper cooling.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT operate engine with

cooling shrouds removed. This will cause overheating and engine damage.

Fill crankcase with oil as recommended below. Refer also to Engine manufacturer’s instruc

tions supplied with the product. Check oil level

before each use and change oil regularly ac

cording to Engine Manufacturer’s instructions.

8.4 Engine Oil Recommendations

If oil is low, add clean, fresh oil of same type and viscosity as is in engine to bring oil level to Full (F) mark (per engine manufacturers in structions).

IMPORTANT: DO NOT overfill. Level must not exceed full (F) mark. Changing Oil

Changing Oil

IMPORTANT: Change oil after first 5 hours of operation. Thereafter change oil every 25 hours of operation (more often in dusty, dirty condi tions). See engine manufacturer’s instructions for proper type, viscosity and amount required.

NOTE: Run engine just prior to changing oil. Oil will flow more freely and carry away more con tamination when warm.

Summer: (Above 32 F)

Winter (Below 32 F)

SAE 30W or Substitutes: 10W30

SAE 5W20, 5W30 or Substitute: SAE low

8.5 Headlight

To replace lamp, remove metal ring or remove

lamp from rubber housing.

CAUTION: When handling glass lamp,

Disconnect electrical plug and assemble new lamp in reverse order.

8-3

breakage may occur.

Engine and Headlight

NOTE: Be sure headlight assembly is grounded

at headlight bracket for single wire models and at terminal on two wire models.

8.6 Engine Air Cieaner

IMPORTANT: When using tractor with summer attachment, install air cleaner and clean ele ment every 25 hours of operation (more often under dusty, dirty conditions).

8.7 Keadiight Assembly

Install headlight bracket (level with floor) on right handlebar with hardware provided.

NOTE: Two washers go between bracket and handlebar at top hole.

Assemble headlight, bracket and U-bracket

with hardware provided and install onto headlight bracket.

NOTE: Remove quadrant mounting hardware (on Models 932001, 4,6,7) for additional clearance when mounting alternator. Secure quadrant when assembled.

Install Alternator shaft over crank shaft nut (tap hex with pipe or light drift until it contacts flywheel washer) and place centering tube on to alternator shaft.

NOTE: Three inch alternator shaft and short

centering tube are for 932000 Series. Alter

nator shaft must extend approximately 5/8” beyond top of starter. If not, incorrect shaft has been installed.

Center rewind starter (using centering tube) and secure with keps nuts removed earlier.

Remove centering tube and position alternator onto alternator shaft with lighting connector receptical to right (as viewed from operator’s position).

Secure alternator to rewind starter with (3) self tapping screws.

Position headlight wire harness behind name plate along handlebar and plug into alternator connector. Secure harness to handlebar with clips.

8.8 Add-On Alternator

Remove rewind starter keps nuts and starter from engine. (Note location of rewind starter handle).

Remove pushout plug from top center of re

wind starter.

On die cast recoils, remove center hole cast

material with Va inch drill.

Rotate pulley to expose 3 punch-outs, place starter on back-up surface and remove pun-

chouts with 1/8” punch.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT exceed 15 inch pounds seating torque (after threads are formed), to prevent screws from contacting pulley or distorting alternator.

Insert lighting connector into connector recep tical.

8.9 Spark Plugs

Spark plugs should be cleaned or replaced (if

necessary) and gap reset to .030” every 100 hours of operation or yearly whichever comes first.

To clean, remove spark plug from engine, scrape

electrodes (DO NOT wire brush or sand blast). NOTE: Sparking can occur if wire terminals do

not fit firmly on spark plugs. Reform terminals if

necessary.
