Buying Large 2 Stage Snowblowers?

admin — Fri, 03 Sep 2010 15:04:28 +0000

My neighbor has a concrete business, and does snow removal during winter. He always buys these large Craftsman 2 stage snowblowers for his jobs. It seems like he always has problems with them, and they are not even a year old! The plastic chutes break, shear pins break, and sometimes they dont run very good. He also has an older Toro. The Toro never has any problems! I told him today that he should invest in a brand new Toro, or Ariens snowblower instead of a Craftsman because that is what the professionals use, and they are made to handle the tough jobs. Besides they are much easier to get parts for, and probably have a better warranty. I never have problems finding parts for my 35 plus year old Ariens snowblowers. Am i right?

I have an old Ariens 5 hp snowblower that stalls?

admin — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 14:36:23 +0000

I actually found it at the dump, the engine has great compression starts and runs, but it misfires a little and everytime I engage the auger it stalls like the auger is jammed or something and the engine can't spin it fast at all. My questions are is this a carb problem? Then should I be able to turn the auger by hand freely with it off? Because it's really hard to turn by hand.

How do you use a snowblower?

I bought a used snowblower (i bought it from an older gentleman's wife - he's in the hospital and won't be using it anymore). The SB had just been tuned up and fires up perfectly on the first try, but I got no other instructions/manual for it and don't have a clue how to use it. No - I've never used one before. It's a craftsman 28" 8.5 hp with electric chute control.

if you can provide me with any tips or reasons why it does this please answer, i am starting to worry because none of my neighbors have this problem with their snowblowers.
The blower will hesitate when it idles or when it handles light snow, it is fine when the engine in working hard in a deep amount of snow.
I will adjust the carb and see how things go from there, thanx

I am interested in the Snapper Model# 1695572 L1428E but the idiots put metal chutes on every snowblower they make except that one.

Can I do my own snowblower repair? My snowblower has last year's gas left in it and will not start now.?

admin — Thu, 26 Aug 2010 12:05:13 +0000

I had my snowblower tuned last winter and it was in working condition at the end of the season. I forgot to run the gas out of it over the off-season, however, and it will not start this year. Would it be adequate for me to replace the sparkplugs that may now be full of gunk? Can I just drain the gas and put fresh gas into it? It is difficult for me to borrow a trailer to bring it in somewhere.... What would you do?
