Ariens Gravely 920001-ST624E Snow Blower Thrower Parts
The Ariens Gravely 920001 ST624E is a robust two-stage gas-powered snow thrower popular for its reliability and snow-clearing capabilities. Manufactured in the late 1990s and early 2000s, this model boasts a 24-inch clearing width, making it suitable for residential driveways and walkways. Its durable construction and ease of use made it a favorite among homeowners and light-duty commercial users alike.
The Ariens Gravely 920001 ST624E snow thrower was a popular model produced primarily in the late 1990s and early 2000s. It's powered by a Tecumseh engine, typically around 6 HP, known for its dependable performance. Some models featured an optional electric start for easier starting in cold weather. As a two-stage snow thrower, it utilizes an auger to break up the snow and then an impeller to throw it. The auger system consists of a serrated steel auger designed to chew through packed snow and ice. The ST624E offers a 24-inch clearing width and an intake height of approximately 20 inches, allowing it to handle moderate snowfalls with ease. Its throwing distance can reach up to 30 feet, depending on snow conditions. The drive system uses a wheel drive with multiple forward and reverse speeds, providing good traction and maneuverability. Chute control is typically manual, allowing the operator to adjust the direction and angle of the snow discharge. While not all models included these features, some ST624E snow blowers came equipped with a headlight for improved visibility in low-light conditions. Heated grips were not standard on this model. This snow blower is ideally suited for homeowners with medium-sized driveways and walkways who experience moderate to heavy snowfall.

Maintenance Tips
- Inspect Auger and Impeller: Regularly check the auger blades and impeller for any signs of damage, wear, or bending. Replace damaged parts promptly.
- Check and Replace Shear Pins: Always have spare shear pins on hand. Replace broken shear pins immediately to protect the auger gearbox from damage if the auger hits a hard object.
- Use Fuel Stabilizer: Add fuel stabilizer to the gas tank before storing the snow blower for the off-season. This prevents fuel degradation and ensures easier starting next season.
- Adjust Skid Shoes: Adjust the skid shoes to prevent the scraper bar from dragging directly on the ground, especially on gravel or uneven surfaces. This extends the life of the scraper bar and prevents damage to your driveway.
