Installation Directions 

(Main Discharge Chute 139-5239 + Upper Deflector Procedure Style)

 

Hilly Ridge Sales & Service tech tip: Take 2–3 quick photos of the discharge chute rotation gear & bracket components, latch components, deflector linkage & control cable routing if Applicable before you take anything apart. It makes reassembly faster and prevents confusion.

Safety / Prep

 

• Park on a flat surface. Shut Motor off, remove key, and disconnect the Battery.
• Let all moving parts stop completely. Wear gloves—sharp edges and packed ice can cut.
• Clean packed snow/ice from the chute base, ring, and gear area before disassembly.
• Take a visual Documentation of Parts (a quick phone photo helps).

 

A) Remove the Existing Chute Assembly

 

• Remove the Shroud 137-2279, Chute Control Rod 139-5244, Chute Gear Bracket's (137-2270) Bolt That Retains it to the Auger Housing, Chute Retainer 137-2278 - Then Remove Discharge Chute 139-5239. If the chute is stuck around the base/ring from ice, gently wiggle it free—avoid prying hard on plastic.
• Inspect Chute Gear, Sector Gear and other Lower Chute Components - Replace any Additional Parts at this time that Need Replaced - if Further Replacement of Lower Discharge Chute Components are Needed Refer to the Diagrams Above and the Lower Chute Associated Part Reference Above to Determine the Usage and Placements of Associated Parts for Each Design Type Listed.

 

B) Transfer / Install the Upper Discharge Chute Deflector

* If your deflector (upper flap) and linkage are being reused, transfer them to the new chute now. If you are replacing the deflector components, install them onto the new chute before mounting the chute to the unit.

 

• Remove: The Old Deflector Chute and Different Hardware parts from the old deflector as needed - Chute Parts are Clip Together.
• Transfer or Assemble: The Old Deflector Chute and Different Hardware parts from the old deflector as needed - Chute Parts are Clip Together.

 

C) Install the New Main Discharge Chute (139-5239) to the Lower Ring / Base

 

• Inspect the Chute Assembly and Components and clean debris from the mating surfaces.
• Insert the new Chute Between the Rear Chute Retainer and Auger Housing, ensuring it seats fully and evenly all the way around.
• Reinstall Chute Gear Bracket's (137-2270) Bolt That Retains it to the Auger Housing, Chute Control Rod 139-5244 and the Shroud 137-2279 and any other Additional Item you may have Deemed it Beneficial to Remove in Replacing the Discharge Chute Assembly.
  

 

D) Final Checks & Adjustments

 

• Rotate the chute fully left and fully right. It should turn smoothly without binding.
• Rotate the deflector fully up and fully down. Confirm it does not bind and the deflector holds its position.
• Reconnect the Battery and do a quick functional test at idle speed only.
