Maintenance Tips
- Inspect Auger and Impeller: Regularly check the auger blades and impeller for wear, damage, or obstructions. Replace worn or damaged parts promptly to maintain optimal performance.

- Use Fuel Stabilizer: Before storing the snow blower for the off-season, add fuel stabilizer to the gas tank to prevent fuel degradation and carburetor issues. This will ensure easier starting next season.
