Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): Snow blower not throwing very far, shear pin, snow king


Question
My snowblower is only throwing snow about 6 feet.  No problems with the motor or rpm. It is a 29" Brute with a 10 hp Snow King motor.  The augers spin free when I spin them but they turn when I rotate the impeller. Have I sheared the pins on the augers?

Answer
Hello Joe:

If you can Hold the Auger/s and Turn the Impeller, then Most Likely you have Sheared the Shear Pin/s. Send me the Model Numbers Off the Unit, Please. With these I can Locate the Proper Manual and Better Assist you. If you Hit a Snag or this Does Not Correct the Problem,  I am Here if You Require More Assistance. Hope this Helps. Let me Know What Happens, Please. Have a Happy Holiday Season and May the All Mighty Bless You and Yours. Be Safe and Happy. Thanks.

Good Luck

John
