Woodsman 3 #1 Posted January 31, 2014 I have a short-chute single stage blower with the 'spool type" crank. I put a new cable on and action is good in both directions. My problem is that when I blow snow the chute always wants to spin to the left. I'm tired of trying to hold the crank in position and wondered if anyone has dealt with this issue?

timo4352 147 #3 Posted January 31, 2014 Mine was doing the same thing. Just tighten up the four screws that hold the chute on - just enough to create some drag. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kelly 1,028 #5 Posted January 31, 2014 as wqas said tighten the screws, but I have also added a washer to the spring on the turning handle it helps also 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
