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

Hi... "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??" Nut below the panel... is this a remote controlled deflector ? Is there a connection that can be tightened on the discharge chute itself ? Is the deflector not controlled remotely ... ...try adding a star type lock washer (or split type lock washer) to one or both sides of the connection bolt/nut... Are the nuts loosening ? If so... try using locking nuts... Dave...

After you are through tightening the nut, the lever should be fairly tight to move. That is how mine is. Next, you might want to look at the cable adjustment for the deflector. Tell us how it goes.

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... Dave...
