Bill,

We need more info before we can help you. NW made lots of diffeent model shovels. Could be a 25 or a 41, for example. If you locate the serial number of the shovel--over by the where the driver sits--there are a number of places that will hunt up the original papers on the machine and you'll then know LOTS about your machine.
