Maintenance Tips
- Regularly inspect the auger and impeller for any signs of wear or damage, such as cracks or bends. Replace damaged parts promptly to maintain optimal performance.
- Always use the correct shear pins as specified by the manufacturer. These pins protect the auger and gearbox from damage if a hard object is encountered. Keep extras on hand.
- Check the belt tension regularly. Loose belts can cause slippage and reduce the snow blower's throwing power. Adjust or replace belts as needed.
- Before storing the snow blower for the off-season, drain the fuel tank or add fuel stabilizer to prevent fuel from degrading and causing starting problems next season. Change the oil annually for optimal engine performance.
