Hi folks, Randy here from New Brunswick, Canada.
We had our first real snowfall of the year last night so I decided to get the old 10 hp MTD out and tackle the driveway.
Everything worked well for about 30 minutes then I noticed that it wasn't throwing much snow. I shut it off and checked the augers, one of them was stuck (picked up a rock) so I loosened it. Still won't throw much snow.
Everything else seems to work fine, it throws what little snow it gets very well so the problem is at the auger end.
Are there shear pins in the shafts? I see the holes but nothing is sticking out of them. If they were there at one time and are broken/worn off, how does one get the remainder out?
Any other suggestions as to what the problem may be?
Thanks for your help.
