Anyone want to clue me on a tip or two
I recently just regreased the auger on my HS724. Nothing complicated nor special...
I just fired it up for the 1st time since doing that.
It spun the Augers 1 1/2 rotation before it quit out on me.
I've been messing with it since, and it makes this loud creaking noise when I engage the auger and then the engine just quits on me....
It spun fine before I got it. Auger does not appear seized....
Pulled the top cover off. Belts look fine.
Fired her up .Engine is nice and smooth.
Yeap, confirmed it's the pulley.
Has the throttle in fast, engaged auger and she's smoking up as the belt is moving but not the pulley....and there is the source of my creak..
Now, on to the fix. Thoughts, suggestions.
