| How to Maintain a Two-Stage Snow Blower |
| By Jon Hoch, Founder (Bolingbrook, IL) |
There’s a reason why people have garages. Nobody likes cranking wrenches in freezing weather.
We recommend servicing your two-stage snow blower every fall before the cold weather numbs your knuckles.
Step 1: Change the Oil
You should empty the gas tank every spring. But, wait until autumn to change the oil, so it’s as fresh as possible.
Always follow the manufacturer’s recommendations on the type and amount of oil to be used. Typically, you use 4-cycle oil for your two-stage snow blower.
Don’t use 2-cycle or any oil that mixes with gasoline. It’s for single-stage snow blowers instead.
Step 2: Change the Spark Plug
If you used your snow blower a lot last season, replace the spark plug too.
We offer maintenance kits that provide the compatible oil and sparkplugs. The kits vary depending on your engine type.
If you have an OHV engine, get an OHV kit. If you have an L-Head engine, get an L-Head kit.
Step 2: Rust Prevention
You want your snow blower to last for a long time. Melting snow is notorious for rusting scratched steel.
Use a wire brush or sand paper to remove as much rust as possible, so the paint will stick. Apply a thin coat and let dry. Repeat a few more times, and your rust problem is solved.
We currently sell Ariens orange spray paint. If your machine isn’t orange, any rust-proof or rust preventing paint will work.
By following these two steps, you snow blower will be ready for whatever winter throws at you. |
