Outdoor Power Equipment (Lawn Mowers, Snow Blowers, Chain Saws and more) Discussions

I was using my snow thrower today. It was working fine. I shut it off to brush off my car. Then I restarted it and went to move some more snow. But once I got into the snow pile it would not throw the snow. So I backed up, shut it off, and cleaned out the auger. Then I started it again and engaged the auger. The auger was rotating, but once I got back into the snow pile it stopped turning again. The shear pins aren't broken. Does anyone have an idea what could be wrong? It is only a year old.

DB9 - Get yourself a belt anyway but try the adjusting first. That very well should do it. If not, at least you HAVE the belt if its needed, and chances are you WILL need it at some point down the road.
