Specific production years can vary, so checking the model year is important when sourcing parts. Typically, it features a gas-powered engine, often a Briggs & Stratton or Tecumseh (specifications vary by year), ranging from 5 to 8 horsepower. An electric start option was often available on select models, offering added convenience. This is a two-stage snow blower, meaning it utilizes an auger to collect snow and an impeller to throw it. The auger is typically serrated for breaking up ice and packed snow. The clearing width is generally around 24-26 inches, with an intake height of approximately 20-21 inches. Throwing distance can reach up to 30-40 feet, depending on snow conditions. The drive system usually employs wheels with multiple forward and reverse speeds, providing good traction. Chute control is typically manual, with a crank or lever to adjust the direction of the snow discharge. A headlight is often included for improved visibility during early morning or evening snow removal. While heated grips are not standard, the 629906X85A is well-suited for clearing driveways, sidewalks, and patios in areas with moderate to heavy snowfall.","specifications":"

","history":"The Murray 629906X85A was a popular model introduced to meet the demand for reliable, mid-sized snow blowers for residential use.

Inspect Auger and Impeller: Regularly check the auger blades and impeller for wear, damage, or bending. Replace damaged parts promptly to maintain optimal performance.
Check and Replace Shear Pins: Shear pins are designed to break when the auger encounters a hard object. Always have spare shear pins on hand and replace them immediately when broken to prevent damage to the drivetrain.
Fuel Stabilizer: Add fuel stabilizer to the gas tank before storing the snow blower for the off-season to prevent fuel degradation and ensure easy starting next winter.
Skid Shoe Adjustment: Adjust the skid shoes to the proper height based on your surface type (pavement, gravel) to prevent damage to the snow blower and the surface being cleared.
