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

If anyone can give me a clue to troubleshoot my snowblower i would appreciate!  Starts and runs well...Impeller wors fine.... the problem is that as soon as the auger starts taking in snow it stops turning....in other words any pressure on the auger stops it.....any suggestions.

make sure the two bolts that go through the shaft and auger are not broken.  When the engine is off, you can check it by trying to turn the auger by hand.  If the bolts are not broken, the impeller should also turn.  Hope this helps
