How to tighten Ariens adjustable chute
Original Message   Feb 13, 2006 2:02 pm
On my ariens snowblower the chute is loose, it moves left to right fine but it will not stay in any position except far left and far right.  If I put it in the middle when it starts throwing the snow it vibrates to either side.

Any suggestions how to fix this?

Thanks

there is a nut compressed  against a spring below where the rod connects to the chute.  tighten the nut.
