Re: Trimmer brands - Are there really any good brands?

Hi Everyone: One thing I haven't seen mentioned, starter in the back (instead of the driveshaft side), indicating two main bearings, most likely roller. The engines with the starter on the driveshaft side are, I believe, single, plain main bearing engines, like old, inexpensive model airplane engines. I know Ryobi at least makes both types. Had bad luck with the cheap one, have many hours on their "Pro" model. CHarley

Thanks a lot Snowman, guess I'll live, or maybe I'll fab something myself to see if it helps. CHarley

Hey thanks everyone but, I think Snowman rules. The model is 924117, serial 001338, delivered 11/23/2002, and if I remember correctly, it was a leftover from the year before. It has been a great machine with only routine maintenance, but this year I want to go completely through it, new belts, friction wheel, these extenders if I can come up with something and I'm adding drift cutters. Thanks again. CHarley

Chute "Extenders" for 2002 Ariens 1024 Pro

Hi Everyone: When the chute on my 1024 is all the way to the right or left, I get a facefull of snow. I seem to remember, a long time ago, discussion on this forum about some sort of side extenders for this problem, but couldn't bring anything up with a search. I see new Ariens have a deeper U-cross section to their chutes. Does anyone (Snowman) know if/how I could find the extenders? Thanks in advance, great forum -- I lurk all the time. CHarley

Hi: This may be my first post, but I've been lurking at this great site for a long time and I've learned a lot, thanks to all of you. I've had this exact problem with my Ariens Pro 1024 a couple of times, and I've been able to fix it with a one-minute adjustment of the clutch cable, the adjuster on my machine is a nut where the cable attaches to a rod right near the housing. If your machine hasn't been fully "taken up" this might work for you. Good luck. CHarley (2006 Super Glide Custom)
