My chute gear on my Ariens snow blower was worn and didn't rotate all the way to the right.
My ereplacement's part arrived promptly and I disassembled the chute assembly and installed the new gear piece quickly. I actually used the ereplacement's chute schematics from the website to insure I put all the pieces back in the proper order. Since I had the chute assembly apart I lubed up all the moving parts with grease or oil and put it all back together.
The chute turns completely in both directions now.
This worked out great.

Snow Blower Chute control gears were worn out

Removed the 2 cover cap screws, and then removed the retaining pin from the chute gear. Then removed the lock nut from the bolt holding the pinion gear. I was then able to replace the chute gear, pinion gear, friction plate, compression spring, and all washers with new replacement parts. The job took about a 1/2 hour as I took my time and the chute now works like new.
