The Murray 6210701X61NA is a single-stage snow thrower designed for residential use, primarily during the early 2000s. It's powered by a Briggs & Stratton or Tecumseh engine, typically around 5-6 HP. Most models did not offer an electric start option, relying on a manual recoil starter.

The throwing distance is typically around 20-25 feet, depending on snow conditions. This model utilizes a wheel-driven system with a single forward speed, making it easy to maneuver. The chute is manually controlled, allowing the operator to adjust the direction of the snow discharge. It did not include features such as a headlight or heated grips. The Murray 6210701X61NA is best suited for homeowners with relatively small to medium-sized driveways and walkways in regions with light to moderate snowfall. Its compact size and ease of use make it a convenient option for quick snow removal tasks.

Maintenance Tips
- Inspect the auger paddles regularly: Look for wear and tear, cracks, or missing pieces. Replace worn paddles to maintain optimal snow throwing performance.
- Replace shear pins promptly: Shear pins protect the auger from damage if it encounters an obstacle. Keep spare shear pins on hand and replace them immediately if broken.
- Use fuel stabilizer during off-season storage: Add fuel stabilizer to the gas tank before storing the snow blower to prevent fuel degradation and carburetor issues.
- Adjust skid shoes as needed: Skid shoes protect the scraper bar and allow you to adjust the clearing height. Adjust them according to the surface you are clearing.
