Re: Looking for exploded diagram for a Honda Single stage HS-520AS Snowblower

Underdog   It certainly looks like it goes in that hole just to the left of the middle pulley. It even has the mark of the wide flange of the bolt you picture.  Are you missing the threaded nut on the other side of the plate?  I  found a site that has online diagrams of Honda equipment.    I think it has your model and lists a VIN number range:  Honda Power Equipment : HS520 AS SNOW BLOWER, USA, VIN# SZBG-6000001 TO SZBG-6099999.  It is: superxpower.com.  On the home page click Honda Parts on the left side, then click Honda Power Equipment Parts Lookup and then use the pull down menus for SNOW BLOWER  and then select your model.  The diagram I think you are looking for is found on the pull down menu on the right under Drive Pulley.  It is hard to tell but item #15 may be the bolt you have and #17 may be the corresponding nut.  It really is a shame they don't drawn the lines to connect all the parts as they fit together.  I hope this helps you.  Sorry for being so long winded but I would rather give too much information than leave something out.

Hello Boblloyd,

You are right.  I did previously  melt part of a nylon jacket trying to start a 25 year old Torro snowblower.  I had a heck of a time trying to find a muffler gard for my B&S 7.75 OHV Intek engine.  Last year Bosco posted a picture of his Simplicity 860 EI with a B&S OHV engine that came with a muffler guard.  But he B&S Accessories Catalog said a guard was not available for my engine .  After a lot of research, I went back to B&S with some part numbers and they thought  part number 699313 would fit .  I ordered it from Jacks Small Engine  for $21.60 and only had to add one screw part # 699209 for $1.20 to attach it .  There was one screw already on the muffler.  I figured I would give you the part numbers and their cost if you or anyone else was interested in adding it to your snowblower.

Hello Navihawk,

Great minds think alike. I have a 2003 Craftsman 536.887752  &.75 HP snowblower made by Murray.  I just added the remote chute deflector by reverse engineering their YardKing  27" 8.5 HP  Model 627858X43A  which is just like the Blizzard.  I decided to try to add the remote chute deflector because the Craftsman seemed to be already set up for it.  If fact, it was, except for a bracket under the plastic head light control pannel.  I had to fabricate a metal bracket to support the the chute defeector control handle.  I called Murray for help in trying to identify a part number for the bracket which I could not find on any parts list,  It seems it is part of the handle bars and is not sold as a seperate part.  The fellow at Murray technical support told me he had to terminate the telephone conversation when he learned i was attempting to "modify" my snowblower ( with original equipment Murray parts.)  It was a scene out of a Saturday Night Live show.  I realize his point about product liability but they should just sell a kit for this purpose. 

By the way I also made a few other modifications.  I added Murray drift cuts which are adjustable, a Brigs& Stratton oid drain valve and a B&S muffler guard.
