Additional information
This chute rotation control spring installs in the chute control system and helps maintain proper tension during chute adjustment. Snowblower chute rotation control spring 580664501 supports smooth and consistent rotation response.
If the chute does not return smoothly, feels loose, or will not hold position during adjustment, the spring may be stretched, weakened, or broken. Reduced tension, uneven movement, or visible spring damage are common signs replacement may be needed.
Disconnect the spark plug wire before starting the repair. Relieve tension on the chute control mechanism before removing the spring to prevent sudden movement. Install the spring fully into its mounting points and confirm smooth chute rotation before restoring power.
