Maintenance Tips
- Auger and Impeller Inspection: Regularly inspect the auger blades and impeller for any signs of damage, wear, or bending. Replace damaged parts to maintain optimal performance.
- Shear Pin Replacement: Keep extra shear pins on hand and replace them immediately if they break. Shear pins protect the gearbox from damage if the auger encounters a solid object. Use only the correct shear pins specified by Ariens/Gravely.
- Belt Tension Adjustment: Check the tension of the belts driving the auger and impeller. Loose belts can cause slippage and reduce throwing distance. Adjust or replace belts as needed.
