Maintenance Tips
- Auger and Impeller Inspection: Regularly check the auger blades and impeller for wear, damage, or bending. Replace damaged components immediately to maintain optimal performance.
- Shear Pin Replacement: Always have spare shear pins on hand. If the auger stops suddenly, it likely means a shear pin has broken to protect the drivetrain. Replace the broken pin with a new one of the correct type.
- Fuel Stabilizer: Add fuel stabilizer to the gas tank before storing the snow blower for the off-season. This prevents fuel degradation and ensures easy starting next season.
- Skid Shoe Adjustment: Adjust the skid shoes to the appropriate height for your surface. Lower them for gravel or uneven surfaces to prevent damage to the auger housing and raise them for smooth surfaces like paved driveways.
