Ariens 1128 problem
Original Message   Feb 2, 2011 3:58 pm
I have an Ariens 1128 Snowblower.

Here's the problem, everything seems to function fine, impeller spins, augers spin, howerver, when I put it into any real snow (more than 6-12 inches) the impeller and the augers stop spinning.  The motor runs fine throughout the whole process, the motor doesn't bog down and it sounds like the clutch is engaging.

It's almost as if when there's any torque applied to the auger/impeller, they stop spinning.   If I hold the impeller/auger handle down, eventually the impeller begins to slowly spin up.

Suggestions and or recommendations are most appreciated.
