bel;ts slipping ?
Original Message   Jan 24, 2005 11:06 am
I have a 10hp 28" MTD model 660 2 stage blower w/ aTec Sno King motor. This unit has seen only two winters. The problems I'm experiencing is with the unit not throwing snow worth a dam ,until the auger and impeller has been running at least one pass up the drive (50 yards.) The motor runs strong and fine. The wheel engagement was sluggish yesterday as well. Could this be a simple case of needing to replace the belts. It would seem that once the belts warm up it works fine. Any and all comments are welcomed.

On my Ariens it says I need to tip the unit apart between the frame and auger housing.

I wonder if Jubol's snowthrower is designed the same way?  If so Jubol, do you have any plans on changing that like you did your oil valve?  Would love to see picture of this process.
