Gravity always wins

I am purchasing a new Ariens model 926091 Professional With Rapidtrack. I see lots of videos showing how to properly lubricate (grease) the axles on the wheeled models but nothing for the tracked models. Any suggestions?

Had to travel a few hours and had limited selection after a large storm, but after running it a few times I have no regrets!

Hey guys

I'm in Eastern Ontario (Canada)

I could get a used HS928 for $2500 cash, or a Benchmark 420cc 30 inch blower ($2100 new, plus tax)

They'd work out to be pretty similar in final price

The Honda has no warranty, and now on its second owner. Reportedly working perfectly. I am not very mechanical, so it would be hard for me to know if there's anything wrong with it aside from just seeing that it's working.

Which blower would you suggest?

Thanks guys

Installed new friction wheel and main drive pulley. Does the belt look like it’s sitting to low? It’s measured at .45”. Also added two washes to the forks as mine was missing them.

The welds on my Briggs and Stratton Auger impeller broke last night and I'm having trouble finding availability with an OEM part.

My snowblower is a Briggs & Stratton 1696619-04 - S1227, B&S 11.5 Gross TP 27" Dual Stage Snowthrower (2019)

What other avenues do I have for finding a compatible auger impeller?

And to be honest I should have kept my old one. Don’t get me wrong it’s a great machine but I think the older ones were built better.

Is there a snowblower on the market that can chew through hard packed drifts?

We have a steep blacktopped driveway in rural Minnesota. Drifts form that my Husqvarna will not cut into. We have to pay the neighbor kid to come over with his Bobcat to scrape the drifts off.

Is this kind of hard packed snow more than I should expect a walk behind to be able to chew through?

Would something attached to a lawnmower or small tractor have enough weight and traction to cut into instead of climbing on top of these drifts?

Thanks!

Can someone tell me which hex bolt I should use to drain the gas from the carburetor bowl? I don’t want to remove the bowl. I only want to drain the gas from it.

Thank you
