After 12 years of Northeast winters, I finally said goodbye to my Craftsman snowblower. It was literally being held together with hose clamps and bailing wire.
I treated myself to the John Deere 1330SE and can't wait for the first major snowfall of the season.
I do have a question for any users/owners of this model. There is a black plastic "shroud" that covers (I believe) the drive belts for the auger etc. It is the black plastic "thing" between the chute and the engine.
There is a pop-off cover on top that measures about 2 in by 6 in, and when opened, there a is a shallow "storage tray" of sorts, with a small hole at one end.
Page 13 (figure 8) of the owners manual identifies this part with the letter "K", however, the key/legend doesn't list anything for the letter "K".
Nothing else is mentioned in the manual
What the heck is this? Is it an oil/lube hole for the drive chains?
Any help greatly appreciated!
