Maintenance Tips

- Replace Shear Pins: Always use the correct shear pins and have spares on hand. These pins protect the auger gearbox from damage if it encounters a solid object.
- Change Oil and Use Fuel Stabilizer: Perform regular oil changes according to the owner's manual. Add fuel stabilizer to the fuel tank before storing the snow blower for the off-season to prevent fuel degradation.
- Adjust Skid Shoes: Adjust the skid shoes according to the surface you are clearing to prevent damage to the snow blower and the clearing surface.
