Check Toro's manual library. . .go to https://lookup3.toro.com/request/request.cfm and type in your model number and the serial number from your machine.  If it is in the library, Toro will let you print the manual for free, or you can buy a copy. 

Hope it is there. . .

924050 auger always turns
#3   Feb 5, 2009 9:49 pm
the auger on my 924050 (sn: 036561) always spins.  Clutch engaged, not engaged, always spins.  It just came back from having a new auger pulley installed, and it still always spins.  (the new pulley was because there was play in the pulley and i was throwing belts, not because of the spinning).  Any suggestions for a course of treatment?

I am careful with it and never leave it unattended, but the thing should work the way it was designed. . .

no. . .used the same pulley, went from a 8hp tecumseh to a 7.75 hp briggs intec.  1 inch shaft to 3/4 with a sleeve.  It throws better than before.  Overall, pretty easy switch ~ My ariens had mounting holes for a briggs. . .cut off the studs that mounted the tecumseh, bolted on the briggs.
