Maintenance Tips
- Inspect Auger and Impeller: Regularly check the auger blades and impeller for wear or damage. Replace worn parts to maintain optimal performance.
- Shear Pins: Always keep spare shear pins on hand. Replace broken shear pins immediately to prevent damage to the auger gearbox.
- Oil Change and Fuel Stabilizer: Change the engine oil annually and add fuel stabilizer to the gasoline before storing the snow blower for the off-season to prevent fuel degradation and carburetor issues.
- Skid Shoe Adjustment: Adjust the skid shoes to suit the surface you are clearing (paved vs. gravel). This prevents damage to the surface and extends the life of the scraper bar.
