- Inspect Auger and Impeller: Regularly check the auger blades and impeller for wear, damage, or bending. Replace any damaged parts to maintain optimal performance.
- Shear Pin Replacement: Keep extra shear pins on hand and replace them immediately if they break to protect the auger gearbox from damage. Use only the correct shear pins specified for your model.
- Fuel Stabilization: Add fuel stabilizer to the gas tank before storing the snow blower for the off-season to prevent fuel degradation and carburetor issues. Drain the carburetor bowl if possible.
