how hot should ariens hand warmers be? and deflector ajustment.
Original Message   Jan 23, 2005 5:59 pm
  

With the hand warmer,,,,,,,,how hot  are the handlebars supposed to get. is it just slight?   If it is more than slight is it possible that a wire is loose?   wouldnt have chosed the option but if it is ther it should work as intended.

2) the deflector keeps popping up. i have tighrned the nut below the panel many times. scared of overtightening? should i just keep on tightening??

thanx

a)t he deflector is a remote. there are inkage adjustments and`the nut under he controls thst i have tightened.

as to the hand warmers i took off my glove. the ruber handle bar grips felt just slightly less cold than the frame.

the machine had  been running for quite some time.

Remote... OK...

Is the any hardware on the chte's joint than can be tightened ?
If so... maybe try adjusting there...

...or follow the Owner's manual...


Was this a light or heavy snow when this happened... ?
If a light snow... then there's a problem...

Solara- Are you sure you are tightening the right nut/bolt? It should have a coil spring that you are putting tension on while your tightening the nut/bolt. What I did when I got mine was tighten it until you can't move the remote deflector at all then back off a turn and try it and back off and try until you can move it and stop there.  - Kris

Melted gloves!  Wow, I've never had that happen to me.  I do know that they got so hot on my 1128 LE, I had to turn them off.

If the heat warmers are getting that hot, it muse be a defect, or something other wrong with it. I could not see why a companey would put out a product that can burn peoples hands!
