Re: 1982 Bolen's Snowblower - drive belt replacement.
#1   Feb 6, 2010 10:33 pm
Hey I had a question for you. I recently purchased an older Bolens snow blower,
it's about 17 years old. I was blowing snow today and noticed once I was 3/4 of the way
done with the drive way that the auger wasn't engaging while the motor was running.
Once it was totally shut down I reached past the auger and turned the fan (impeller i believe it's called)
and was able to turn it. clockwise. The auger turns along with the impeller so I don't believe that I sheared any shear pins.
I was wondering if it might need another belt of some sort. A drive belt?
Please let me know if you have any suggestions.I'd appreciate it greatly.

Thanks
