What does a snowblower need for maintenance? More than an oil change.

What Does a Snowblower Need for Maintenance? More Than an Oil Change Proper snowblower maintenance is essential to ensure reliable performance during winter's harsh conditions. Beyond just an oil change, here's what you need to focus on for your snowblower:
  • Inspect Critical Components
    • Check and tighten bolts, nuts, and screws. Replace worn-out belts and frayed starter cords.
  • Replace Vital Parts
    • Swap out the spark plug annually and clean or replace the fuel filter. These steps ensure easier starts and efficient operation.
  • Lubrication and Adjustment
    • Apply the right lubricants to the drive system and moving parts. Inspect and adjust skid shoes, the scraper bar, and the auger for wear and proper clearance.
  • Check Fuel Quality
    1. Use fresh, winter-grade gasoline to avoid starting issues. Ensure the tank is free of stale fuel.
  • Maintain Tires and Accessories
    • Inflate tires to the recommended pressure and inspect for wear. If chains are needed, ensure they're ready to use. Test additional features like power steering or headlights for functionality.
  • Shear Pin and Battery Care
    1. Replace broken shear pins to protect the auger mechanism. For electric snowblowers, check battery voltage and condition.
  • Taking these steps helps prevent breakdowns and maximizes your equipment's lifespan. For detailed instructions, consult your owner's manual or visit trusted resources such as Bob Vila's maintenance guide or Troy-Bilt's recommendations.
Keeping your snowblower in top shape is essential for reliable performance during unpredictable winters. Regular maintenance goes beyond the basics—don’t settle for just an oil change! After working in wet, salty conditions and sitting idle for months, your snow blower needs a thorough inspection and service to ensure it’s ready to tackle the toughest snowfalls.

At YARMAND, we offer trusted service that extends the life of your equipment and saves you from costly breakdowns. Watch to learn why professional snowblower maintenance is the key to keeping your machine running smoothly year after year!
