A bit of a challange
March 15, 2019|Rupert01, Western Massacusetts

Diagrams in owners manual did not show how the shaft connects to the outlet impeller. Turns out one must disassemble the shaft that powers the wheels to get enough clearance to remove the bolt holding the shaft to the auger drive pulley. Then, be prepared with solvent to loosen the shaft from the outlet impeller, it may be rusted to the shaft as mine was. Overall, though, a bit of a fun project.
