Ariens Gravely 932104-ST824 Snow Blower Thrower Parts

The Ariens Gravely 932104 ST824 is a popular gas-powered, two-stage snow blower known for its robust performance and reliability. Manufactured primarily in the late 1990s and early 2000s, this model features a 24-inch clearing width, making it well-suited for both residential driveways and smaller commercial properties. Its durable construction and efficient snow throwing capabilities made it a favorite among homeowners and snow removal professionals alike.

The Ariens Gravely 932104 ST824 snow blower was a staple in the Ariens/Gravely lineup during the late 1990s and early 2000s. It was designed to offer a balance of power and maneuverability for tackling moderate to heavy snowfall. Typically, this model was equipped with a Tecumseh 8 HP engine, offering sufficient power for its 24-inch clearing width. Many models featured an electric start option for easier starting in cold weather. Being a two-stage snow blower, the ST824 utilizes an auger to break up and collect snow, then an impeller to powerfully throw it away from the clearing path. The auger system features a serrated design to effectively chew through compacted snow and ice. It boasts a 24-inch clearing width and an intake height of approximately 20 inches, enabling it to handle significant snow depths. While exact throwing distance varies based on snow conditions, it could typically throw snow up to 30-35 feet. The ST824 uses a wheel-drive system, usually offering 5 or 6 forward speeds and 2 reverse speeds, providing good control in varying snow conditions. Chute rotation is manually controlled, allowing the operator to direct the snow stream. While typically not equipped with headlights or heated grips, its reliable engine and robust construction made it a workhorse for residential and commercial snow removal. Ideal for homeowners with medium to large driveways and snow removal contractors handling smaller jobs.

Maintenance Tips

  • Inspect Auger and Impeller: Regularly check the auger blades and impeller 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 are designed to break if the auger encounters a solid object. Always have spare shear pins on hand and replace them immediately if broken.
  • Fuel Stabilization: Before storing the snow blower for the off-season, add fuel stabilizer to the gas tank to prevent fuel degradation and carburetor issues.
  • Oil Changes: Change the engine oil at least once a year, or more frequently if used heavily. Refer to the owner's manual for the correct oil type and change interval.
