The Husqvarna 924BE is a robust two-stage gas-powered snow blower, renowned for its reliability in tackling moderate to heavy snowfall. Featuring a 24-inch clearing width, it's designed for both residential and light commercial use. This model, manufactured in the early 2000s through early 2010s, gained popularity for its powerful engine and user-friendly design, making snow removal efficient and less strenuous.
The Husqvarna 924BE snow blower was a popular model within the Husqvarna lineup, produced from the early 2000s to the early 2010s, primarily targeting homeowners with medium-sized driveways and walkways. It is powered by a Briggs & Stratton engine, typically ranging from 8-9 HP (approximately 205cc), featuring an electric start option for easy starting in cold weather conditions.

The 924BE features a wheel drive system with multiple forward and reverse speeds, offering good maneuverability. The chute rotation is typically controlled manually, allowing for directional snow throwing. A headlight provides enhanced visibility during early morning or late evening snow removal. While not always standard, some models featured heated hand grips for operator comfort. The Husqvarna 924BE is best suited for paved or gravel driveways and can effectively manage moderate to heavy snowfall.
