Ariens Gravely 932100 Snow Blower Thrower Parts
The Ariens Gravely 932100 series snow blowers, manufactured during the late 1990s and early 2000s, were powerful gas-powered two-stage machines known for their reliability. With a clearing width of around 20-22 inches, these snow throwers efficiently tackled moderate to heavy snowfall. Their durable construction and robust performance made them a popular choice for both homeowners and light commercial use.
The Ariens Gravely 932100 series snow blowers were a staple in the residential and light commercial snow removal market for several years. Production spanned from the late 1990s to the early 2000s. These units are typically powered by a Tecumseh or Briggs & Stratton gas engine, ranging from 5 HP to 6 HP, often with an optional electric start for easier cold-weather starts. As a two-stage snow blower, the 932100 utilizes a robust auger system to break up the snow and feed it into a high-speed impeller. The clearing width is generally 20-22 inches with an intake height of 12-14 inches, allowing it to handle substantial snow drifts. Throwing distances can reach up to 30-35 feet depending on snow conditions. These models feature a wheel drive system with multiple forward and reverse speeds, providing good traction and maneuverability. Chute controls are typically manual, allowing the operator to adjust the direction and trajectory of the snow stream. Some models included a headlight for enhanced visibility in low-light conditions. The Ariens Gravely 932100 is well-suited for clearing driveways, sidewalks, and smaller parking areas with moderate to heavy snowfall.

Maintenance Tips
- Inspect Auger and Impeller: Regularly check the auger blades and impeller for any signs of wear or damage. Replace worn or damaged parts promptly to maintain optimal performance.
- Shear Pins: Always use the correct shear pins for your model. Replace broken shear pins immediately to prevent damage to the auger gearbox. Keep spares on hand.
- Fuel Stabilizer: Before storing your snow blower for the off-season, add fuel stabilizer to the gas tank to prevent fuel degradation and carburetor issues.
- Skid Shoe Adjustment: Adjust the skid shoes to the appropriate height based on the surface you're clearing. This prevents damage to the blower and the surface being cleared.
