Ariens Deluxe 27

My husband has an Ariens Deluxe 27. We are having a hard time figuring it out. Are both wheels suppose to move automatically? We can get the right wheel to move but no the left. What are we doing wrong? We are in Maryland getting slammed with our 2nd 20"+ snowstorm in 4 days. Someone please help.
Thanks,
Suzie

Suzie Hi Suzie, if you wanted a snowblower that turns in either Direction you needed to buy a Toro. The Ariens will only turn one way which is one of the reasons I didn't buy one. Both wheels are supposed to move the unit forward until you pull up on the handle unless your model has a limited slip differential. If both wheels are not moving and just one wheel is then something is wrong but I am not sure what, but there are others in this group who will know much more than I do.
"If you have more miles on your snow blower than your car, you live in New England." "If you can drive 75 mph through 2 feet of snow during a raging blizzard without flinching, you live in New England."

Ariens does have a true differential.......go with the PRO series... Every snowblower manufacturer has different levels...good....better ....best... can't go wrong with the Orange Crush........ARIENS...you get what you pay for... |

I assume the 'black' models at HD are the 'good'. Are the HD orange models the 'better' ones? Where do you get the 'bets' and what makes them so...
The black ones are Sno-Tek, which is Arien's economy line.
The orange Ariens branded machines come in three grades....consumer, prosumer, and professional. OP: have you checked the pin-locks on the axle?
