Now that you’ve checked the safety precautions and settings in your manual, it’s time to check other common snow blower problems that prevent starting or proper use.
• Snow key is not in place
• Engine isn’t primed properly
• Stale gas can cause snow blower engine damage
• Fouled spark plugs
• Not enough oil in the snow blower
• Ice, snow or debris in the gas cap

What if your snow blower plugs, jams, or stops during use? When using a snow blower or snow thrower, the auger can get blocked by ice, snow or debris. This is an especially sensitive area of snow blower repair that requires caution to be done safely.

On 2-stage snow blowers, the discharge chute contains a rotating impeller to throw snow, and fingers can quickly become caught in the impeller. Never clear or unclog the discharge chute with your hands—always use a clean-out tool. Hand contact with the rotating impeller inside the discharge chute is the most common cause of injury associated with snow blowers. Failure to observe these safety instructions will result in serious injury.

To safely clear a clogged discharge chute, follow these instructions:
1. Shut OFF the engine.
2. Wait 10 seconds to be sure the impeller blades have stopped rotating.
3. Always use a clean-out tool, not your hands.

Snow blower maintenance checklist:
• Change the oil in your snow blower engine regularly
• Replace spark plugs when necessary
• Prevent ethanol fuel damage by using fuel stabilizer & properly storing equipment

We use non ethanol fuel in all our repairs on snowblowers and generators

For proper snow blower storage, store it with a full gas tank with fuel stabilizer to prevent moisture from causing engine damage. Use the fuel shut-off switch if your snow blower model is equipped with one to protect the fuel spillage and flooding the carburetor. As a final step, be sure to clean and dry your unit at the end before storing it.
