While there weren't any major redesigns during its production run, Murray was known for its reliable and budget-friendly snow removal equipment, making this model a popular choice for homeowners.","maintenanceTips":"

Inspect the auger and impeller regularly: Look for signs of wear, damage, or bending. Replace worn or damaged parts promptly to maintain optimal performance.
Replace shear pins as needed: Shear pins protect the auger gearbox from damage if the auger encounters a hard object. Keep spare shear pins on hand and replace them immediately when broken.
Use fuel stabilizer: Add fuel stabilizer to the gas tank before storing the snow blower for the off-season to prevent fuel from deteriorating and causing starting problems.
Check and adjust skid shoes: Properly adjusted skid shoes prevent damage to the auger housing and allow for optimal snow removal on different surfaces.
