Hi,
This is my first post here and am a new memberas of today 9-21-2010. My 2 year old "White" Snow King 8.5 HP ate a vine last winter and pulled one side of the auger out of the frame. The auger belt was chewed up pretty bad. I reseated the auger into the side. It looks fine. A new belt is too loose for some reason. I have two new belts that are the same size as the original belt but there is at least 3/4 inch of play. When the handle is depressed the tension is correct. I can adjust the cable only so much by loosening two bolts and tightening the cable. Still too much play. I don't want to start cutting and shortening the cable as I don't see anything wrong.
Any ideas. Any help would be appreciated!
