OK...I did a dumb thing...last year I ran out of shear bolts, and put a regular bolt in. I totally forgot about it. I was kindly doing my neighbors driveway..and he left his newspaper in the snow! ARGH. It got caught in the auger and impeller
I got the paper out but...
Now the augers don't move. I was hoping it was the belts..no luck. THe impeller moves freely.......it clearly looks like its the auger gearbox. But, how do I even get the darn thing out? And, even if I am able to access it, can I actually fix it on my own? Is it worth fixing? Its a 5HP craftsman Bought 2 years ago for $350......Someone locally has a snapper 7hp for sale for $500. I may just get that in lieu of a major repair of this.
What should I do? Think I can repair on my own? THis is the last way I wanted to start the weekend!
