How to Get Your Snowblower Ready For Winter.
This will help make sure your snowblower is ready when you need it most.Is your snow blower ready? First, go start up the snow blower today. Do not wait until you are snowed in to find out that something is wrong with your Snow Blower. If your Snow Blower will not start, schedule service as soon as you can. Get your Snow Blower into the repair shop or if you're handy get to work. If you need an engine manual we have them. Here are some tips that can keep your walks clear of snow. Keep spare parts for your Snow Blower on hand, you cannot go get Snow Blower parts if you are snowed in. Snow Blower Belts are one item that you should have on hand. Order a spare set of Snow Blower belts (consider two sets of spares, that way if you break a belt and the new one breaks right away due to some mechanical problem with your Snow Blower you will still have a spare to get you out). If your Snow Blower has shear pins get a handful, not just 1 or 2. Also, check the condition of slide shoes and the scraper bar if installed on your Snow Blower (these parts are made to be replaced). A spark plug, a couple quarts of winter oil (5w-30, check your Snow Blowers manual for the manufacturers recommendation) and maybe a inner tube of the correct size and some tire chains should get you through the blizzard. If you need new tires, check them out here. PS: Read our how to do it pages for tune-up and oil change information. |
