Maintenance Tips
- Inspect Auger and Impeller: Regularly check the auger blades and impeller for wear, damage, or obstructions. Replace worn or damaged parts promptly to maintain optimal performance.
- Shear Pins: Always have spare shear pins on hand. Replace any broken shear pins immediately to protect the auger and transmission from damage. Use only the correct replacement shear pins specified for the 924075.
- Belt Tension: Check the belt tension regularly. Loose belts can cause slippage and reduce throwing distance. Adjust or replace belts as needed.
- Fuel Stabilizer: Add fuel stabilizer to the fuel tank before storing the snow blower for the off-season. This prevents fuel from breaking down and causing carburetor problems.
