Murray 629108X84A Snow Blower Thrower Parts
The Murray 629108X84A is a popular two-stage gas-powered snow thrower known for its reliability in clearing moderate to heavy snowfall. Manufactured in the late 2000s and early 2010s, this model typically features a 26-inch clearing width. Its robust engine and two-stage design made it a favorite among homeowners needing efficient snow removal from driveways and walkways.
The Murray 629108X84A snow blower was a staple in the Murray lineup, produced primarily from the late 2000s to the early 2010s. It's typically powered by a Briggs & Stratton or Tecumseh engine, ranging from 8 to 10 horsepower (approximately 205-250cc). Many models included an electric start option for ease of use in cold weather. Being a two-stage snow blower, it employs an auger to break up the snow and an impeller to throw it away from the clearing path. The auger system generally consists of serrated steel blades. It boasts a 26-inch clearing width and an intake height of around 20-21 inches, enabling it to handle significant snow accumulation. Throwing distance can reach up to 30-40 feet, depending on snow consistency. The drive system utilizes wheels with multiple forward and reverse speeds, providing good maneuverability. Chute rotation is typically controlled manually. A headlight enhances visibility during early morning or evening snow removal. While heated grips were not a standard feature, the Murray 629108X84A is well-suited for handling moderate to heavy snowfalls on medium to large driveways and walkways. Its design lends itself well to paved surfaces.
