How do I replace broken shear pins on the auger?

Turn off the engine and wait for all moving parts to come to a complete stop, then remove any remnants of the broken shear pin by unscrewing the nut and driving out the broken pin. Insert a new shear pin through the hole in the auger shaft and tighten it using the provided nylon locknut, being careful not to over-tighten. Never replace shear pins with standard pins or fasteners, as this can cause damage to the snow blower and drive systems. Replacement shear pins and nylon locknuts are included with the snow thrower, and additional replacements can be ordered by calling (800) 791-9458. (Page 20)
