THANK YOU! We had this issue, and thanks to you, we could fix it ourself--saved us money!!

Hey I just repaired my snowbkower with your video! tanks from Québec!

This was incredibly helpful to me, as I had precisely this issue. Thank you!

Thanks for the video... fixed my problem without tearing it apart.

Thanks you. Helped fixed my problem. Appreciate you making the video

Thanks for the video. Just had the same problem with my overpriced P.O.S Husky. Your video helped a lot

Thank you, this video helped me. I just had to replace the 2 bolts but I didn’t take everything apart. I just tilted the whole think back and put new 1/4-20 bolts in.

Excellent job my friend!!!!

This is very helpful. I also have the same issue thank you

Hi thanks for your video. I have a Husquavarna 924HVX. There is a small toolbox located on the top of the machine near the chute. The toolbox contains 6 shear pins and nuts and a wrench. I was also able to access everything from the mouth of the blower. Again thank you.

i had st224 and only used 2 times and the blower didn't spin and watching you on youtube and it was very helpfull thks

Awesome fix 🤙

Excellent thank you

Nice job still gotta fix mine.

Thank you so very much. I wish I would have known about this before I bought this lol

Good job bro

I was a bit shocked when you said to make sure the shear pins were tight. I was always toled that they should be slightly loose to allow them to break if the impeller hit an obstruction.

Thank you so much. I was ready to take apart the machine to change belts etc. I try this tonight.

if you think about it i own own of these nice machines and i have many extra shear pins for them due to the amount of driveways i do but the normal reason mine break is either debris in the pack snow or stone jam it up and in my experience i would rather replace a shear pin then the transmission on these machines. I agree they are light duty and my 30 year old ariens only sheared a few pins. Keep up the knowledgable videos I and other appreciate them

Kinda funny, I knew a guy who went through similar trials. He is a huge Husqvarna chain saw fan. I think he's got at leas 2 saws with 4 different sized bars, or something like that. He bought a Husqvarna blower not realizing they farmed those out. It mostly worked fine but he lives in the woods so hitting tree branches is a common problem. Well, due to a design flaw the auger shear pins won't shear when something wedges between the auger and the bucket. He blew out two gearboxes before he sold it and bought an Ariens. Some additional things, tho. You'll notice those predrilled holes in the deflector, those are for an optional "duckbill" extension that makes the deflector longer. He liked that feature so much he had one custom made for his Ariens. Also, I have to add, the place I moved into was once owned by an old lady who liked her lawn ornaments. Well, my Ariens "found" a little tiny frog made out of *concrete* and my shear pins failed to shear also. It stopped the machine dead. I'm certain I did significant damage to my gearbox, however, it did not fail and a few years on it is still working. Honda/Yamaha are probably the only brands where I don't see the shear pins ever failing to function, at least on the ones I've seen.

Nice fix. I guessed right. Spinning shaft. My snow machines are OLD. My John Deere is the Year 1974 and the Craftsman is about 2001. I saved them both from the crusher. On the John Deere the impeller is still rusted to the shaft. BELIEVE me I tried everything.

Nice!

Thank you for sharing!! I have a different problem.... I have an older Husqvarna 10527STE snowblower in which I'm at a complete loss in regards to why it won't stay engaged while in drive. When under load of just 4" of snow, it won't stay engaged at all. I changed the drive friction rubber ring, drive / auger belts along with a new traction idler spring & bias spring to boot. In addition, I thoroughly lubricated metal parts including the steering assemblies. I thought for sure it was the rubber friction ring after seeing it was worn. The new rubber friction ring is making great contact against the drive wheel assembly therefore, I can't believe that's the issue. As for the belts & springs, they really didn't need changing but, I had the parts and did so anyway. The following video shows the power steering assembly disengaging / engaging which is happening on both sides simultaneously on its own without touching the steering triggers. Any thoughts for a remedy would sincerely appreciated Thanks again and Happy New Year!! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rLWJaK5msr7SfoU.html

Great job love your channel, l switched over to royal purple in snowblower, can l use royal purple in my mowers? 10 w30?

After the snow & ice accumulation that we received in Ky this year, I may consider getting a snowblower or snowblower attachment for one of my garden tractors. I have never been very impressed with any of the Husqvarna products over the years. Great Video,Jason.

You couldn't see the shear pins were missing just by looking at it? Plus you didn't need to disassemble anything to replace them.

Royal Purple? Is this going to the drag strip?

So hey i have a 924 v I think it is everything spins but when I go it throws it than it won’t throw anymore

I have the same machine, just cleaned the carb and flushed the gas tank running great. Mine has been fine for the 4 years I've had it. Carb was dirty because I left the gas on all summer..my fault.

What size bolts did you use please?

Happy Sunday guys, Great Job 👍👍🇺🇲🇺🇲

I have a sears smaller one and I got new paddles put on but now it don’t throw the snow auger is spinning but it’s not throwing the snow any help lol

Not a bad machine, homeowner use really,, I wouldn't modify the impeller, those pins will sheer again much quicker (especially original ones) and the loading from your mod will significantly reduce belt life. Not to mention icing here on L.I causes issues and with no clearance its just gonna jam up even more. There are Dual Belt Auger drives that can handle your mod, those would be the machines to mod out IMHO> Nice quick mod & Repair, those holes look deceiving in size, with those bolts it should be good to go,,,Double nut or use some locktight, the impeller spins much faster, they may come off. (not a huge fan of Nylock on spinning things) BTW I've thought about making one flapper to add to one of my machines, less load and should be effective too. Next Year, I just cant bring myself to work on yet another snowblower lol Good Job,,,,

what kind of adjustment can be made for the husq auger? besides belt replacement. i have a husq 27 (last years model) and its the worst of at least 5 different brands Ive owned.

Spiral pins work better than split pins. I’ve also used grade 5 or 8 screws and locknuts for the fan retention

Good info but took painstakingly forever trying to find the few seconds worth of info I needed

Had the same issue happen to me just a couple minutes ago. I didn't hit anything that I saw but a tiny patch of grass/dirt and we had about 4" of heavy icy snow. About 15 minutes later stopped blowing snow. Auger spins but not impeller. Snowblower is not even 2 years old and maybe used it a total of 12 times.

My husquvarna chute won’t go up and down? How do I fix that?

I don’t like all the cables on a Husqvarna I’d rather have linkages

Can anyone recommend a good snowblower to use with a gravel driveway?

Why don’t you use your rubber Matt that is right next to you? 😂

I have a ST 227 purchased 5 years ago. Nothing but issues with it! Within 2 months carb had to be replaced! (under warranty thankfully). Various other minor issues over time. This year had to replace gas tank....who would put a metal gas tank on a snow blower... tank rotted out even though I used gas line antifreeze and drained tank after seasonal use. Tank was $200!!! and install was $100. Every other brand I have looked at has a plastic tank. Will never buy another Husqvarna product!!

Looks like the impeller had set screws that hold it on the shaft loosen up . I have never seen a machine that the impeller was pinned to the shaft. Either way the build quality of newer machine is getting lighter and lighter and I mean that not in a good way. If the pins were meant to shear the machine ingested something large and hard. Maybe a piece of ice or a newspaper....

I think I hit snow with mine when it broke.

NEVER tighten shear pins. In order for them to work properly, they must ALWAYS have slack to allow them to "shear"

What is so strange with destroying a shearpin? Did it on my 7k$ Yamaha once, without complaining it's a piece of shit;)

lots of idle chat.

no sound

your volume is is weak

They all have shear pins. I don't understand all the drama.

You talk too much, stick with the topic as there is "strength in brevity"

They are CRAP after 2 years

Wayyyyyyy tooooooooo much talking!!! And tooookkkk wayyyyyyy longer than needed

You talk to much! Stick to the repair and only the repair.

I am surprised you do not like Husqvarna. I always though it was a really high quality machine?
