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

 I bought a new Ariens 624E snowblower and it appears the dealer did not complete the assembly as specified in the manual for the machine. The manual says the machine should be run for at least 15 minutes with the auger engaged and then the cables should be checked. They did not do this and don't seem to feel it is important. Now my machine auger/impellor runs all the time and does not disengage even when the handle is in the full up position.  Can someone share why this step is important? I assume if it's in the manual, it's important to do???

you paid for set-up. let the dealer handle it! ............. DI
