[. . . ] 5524SBl Owner's Manual / 96193003400 / 2008-11 Safe Operation Practices for Walk-Behind Snow Throwers This snow thrower is capable of amputating hands and feet and throwing objects. Failure to observe the following safety instructions could result in serious injury. Look for this symbol to point out important safety precautions. WARNING: Always disconnect spark plug wire and place it where it cannot contact plug in order to prevent accidental starting when setting up, transporting, adjusting or making repairs. [. . . ] AUGER GEAR CASE • The gear case was filled with lubricant to the proper level at the factory. The only time the lubricant needs attention is if service has been performed on the gear case. • If lubricant is required, use only Ronex ED #1 grease. TRACTION DRIVE SYSTEM DO NOT lubricate the drive components inside the snow thrower. The sprockets, hex shafts, drive disc and friction wheel require no lubrication. The bearings and bushings are lifetime lubricated and require no maintenance. CAUTION: Any lubricating of the above components can cause contamination of the friction wheel and damage to the drive system of your snow thrower. TO CHANGE ENGINE OIL Determine temperature range anticipated before next oil change. All oil must meet API service classification SG–SL. • Be sure snow thrower is on level surface. • Oil will drain more freely when warm. • Catch oil in a suitable container. NOTE: The left side wheel may be removed from snow thrower for easier access to the oil drain plug and placement of a suitable container. The unit tilted, resting on the frame with the left wheel removed, will help drain any oil trapped inside the engine. (See “TO REMOVE WHEELS” in the Service and Adjustments section of this manual). Remove safety ignition key and disconnect spark plug wire from spark plug and place wire where it cannot come in contact with plug. Remove drain plug and drain oil in a suitable container. Install drain plug and tighten securely. Wipe off any spilled oil from snow thrower and engine. Install left wheel (if removed for draining oil). Be sure to install klick pin into proper hole in wheel axle (See “TO REMOVE WHEELS” in the Service and Adjustments section of this manual). Be careful not to allow dirt to enter the engine.
