The Ariens Gravely 926104 PRO32 is a robust gas-powered, two-stage snow blower known for its reliability and snow-clearing power. This model, manufactured in the late 1990s and early 2000s, features a substantial 32-inch clearing width. The PRO32 gained popularity among homeowners and snow removal professionals alike for its ability to tackle heavy snowfalls and icy conditions with ease and efficiency.
The Ariens Gravely 926104 PRO32 snow blower was a popular choice for both residential and commercial snow removal, produced primarily in the late 1990s and early 2000s. It features a Tecumseh engine, typically around 10-12 HP, offering ample power for demanding snow clearing tasks. An electric start option was available on some models, providing convenient starting in cold weather. This is a two-stage snow blower, meaning it utilizes both an auger to break up and gather snow, and an impeller to forcefully discharge it through the chute. The auger system is designed to handle various snow types. The PRO32 boasts a 32-inch clearing width and an intake height of around 20-21 inches, allowing it to handle substantial snowfalls. Depending on the engine output and snow conditions, throwing distance can reach up to 40-50 feet. The drive system is wheel-driven, offering multiple forward and reverse speeds to suit different snow conditions and operator preferences. Chute control is typically manual, allowing the operator to adjust the direction of the snow discharge. A headlight provides increased visibility during early morning or late evening snow removal. While heated grips weren't a standard feature on this model, its robust construction and powerful engine made it ideal for clearing large driveways, sidewalks, and parking areas in moderate to heavy snow conditions.

Maintenance Tips
- Inspect the auger and impeller regularly: Look for any signs of wear, damage, or bending. Replace worn or damaged parts promptly to maintain optimal performance.
- Check and replace shear pins: Shear pins protect the auger gearbox from damage. Ensure you have spare shear pins on hand and replace them immediately if they break.
- Use fuel stabilizer: Add fuel stabilizer to the fuel tank before storing the snow blower for the off-season to prevent fuel degradation and carburetor issues.
- Adjust skid shoes: Adjust the skid shoes to maintain proper clearance between the auger housing and the ground, preventing damage to the auger and ensuring efficient snow removal.
