Additional Information

This shift rod kit links the auger engagement handle to the mechanism that starts and stops the auger. It helps ensure the auger engages smoothly when you activate the control.

The kit may include multiple parts used to complete the linkage. If the auger fails to engage, engages inconsistently or the control handle feels loose, components in the shift rod system may be worn or damaged.

Disconnect the spark plug wire before beginning the repair. Wear work gloves when working around linkage components and metal parts.
