After my parents married, I bless the day they decided to settle in my mother's home town (Milwaukee) rather than his (Buffalo, where you are). We still get some whopper snow storms but not the volume you get. I suspect the difference comes down to being west of the lake rather than east. BTW, this video prompted me to finally grease my Ariens' augers. Thanks, man!

I have an ARIENS deluxe 28 SHO 2023 model and my dealer got it all prepared for me when it comes to greasing everything and oil. But obviously they don’t rustproof it themselves so I rustproof it and hopefully that rustproofing holds, i’m from upstate New York, and the snow here is unpredictable.

I really enjoy the videos; my maintenance and repair have gone a lot better. Thank you for bringing the fun and humor into these videos. Question on this video.... I've greased my augers in the past on my 28inch Ariens but I've never checked on the orientation of the augers before I put the sheer pins back in. What is the proper orientation or how do I check the orientation? At 5:16 in the video, it's mentioned when facing the front of the machine that on the left auger the edge toward the middle should be up and on the right auger the edge toward the middle is pointing out. Is that true in most cases with an Ariens machine?

@GarageGear 6 ай бұрын

Hey David! Appreciate your positive feedback my friend! We keep it real in these videos lol! I wouldn’t over think the orientation. I’m pretty my sure on an Ariens if the zerks are facing the the same way you’re orientation should be good. Thanks for watching!

I was unable to get one of the shear pins out, but greased the one side that i could. I didnt even think about it until now, but is there a right and wrong way to align the auger? Can it be out by 180 degrees?

@GarageGear 5 ай бұрын

Hey munday! There can be on some models. Check your manual and look at how the augers are positioned. MTD snowblowers can have multiple augers with multiple shear pins. You’ll want the augers to line up with each other.

Left/right auger orientation is a thing?? 🤔 I gotta take a peak at mine now. I don’t have a torque wrench but I always thought sheer pins should be left with a little up n down slack. Am I wrong here? Merry Christmas to you and your family JB!

@GarageGear 6 ай бұрын

Hey Apex! Best to just put them back the way they were! Some models this matters. For this Ariens I’m going by the manual with the torque setting but I agree with you I have done that before as well! I wouldn’t lose sleep or over think it. Merry Christmas my friend! 👍👍

It would be nice if you could order your new snowblower from the factory with everything assembled with anti-seize as needed. Just watched Donnyboy getting an impeller off a shaft. Been there-done that. Personally I think there is a conspiracy between my oxygen-acetylene dealer and the snowblower manufacturers.
