Features

44-in. (112-cm) Snow Blower

44-in. (112-cm) Snow Blower 44-in. (112-cm) Snow Blower

The 44-in. (112-cm) Snow Blower has the capacity to handle big snow removal jobs:

  • Works well in all snow conditions and is suited for snow removal around recreational parks, industrial parks, and other applications where snow must be moved greater distances
  • Ideal for home and estate owners in snowy regions
  • More effective than single-stage snow throwers when operating in wet, heavy snow and deep snow conditions; the low speed auger sizes crusted material as it moves snow toward the second-stage blower
  • Provides consistent snow placement up to 50 ft (15.2 m) in variable snow conditions because the high-speed blower gives the discharged snow consistent velocity—even in very light clean-up volumes

 

Two-stage design

Two-stage auger and cast iron gearbox Two-stage auger and cast iron gearbox

The low-speed auger picks up snow and moves it toward the center of the machine into the high-speed rotor where it is blown out of the discharge chute.

 

A cast-iron gearbox provides speed reduction for the auger and is protected by shear bolts for each auger half.

 

Two-stage snow blowers are more effective than single-stage snow throwers when operating in deep snow as the low-speed auger is used to size crusted material. They also provide consistent snow placement in variable snow conditions because the high-speed rotor gives the discharged snow consistent velocity-even in very light clean-up volumes.

Durable, second-stage blower fan Durable, second-stage blower fan
Cast-iron gearbox Cast-iron gearbox

The second-stage blower fan is formed from the same durable and rust-resistant, ultra-high molecular weight (UHMW) polyethylene material proven in the Power Flow™ blower fan for durability and long life.

 

The durable fan material has the same cold-weather characteristics as snowmobile track rollers and will not bend and cause the fan to get out of balance.

 

A single-belt drive system coupled to a cast-iron gearbox with a horizontal sheave minimizes belt angles and twists for superior reliability and durability.

Spout and deflector

The discharge spout and deflector are made from high-density polyethylene material that will not dent or rust and resists snow buildup to ensure trouble-free operation. It is more durable, especially in cold-weather use, than the polypropylene material used by some other manufacturers.

 

Spout direction and deflector angle can both be conveniently controlled form the operator station:

  • The chute material remains smooth and is less likely to clog than a steel chute.
  • Controls to operate the chute are conveniently located for easy operation.
  • The discharge spout can be rotated 200 degrees from the operator station.
  • The deflector can be easily adjusted form the operator's station to determine distance of throw.

Premium lift system

Premium lift handle and control Premium lift handle and control

A premium lift system is designed for easy operation:

 

  • Two lift-assist springs aid in reducing lift effort. The lift system is designed to keep the snow blower housing level as it is lifted.
  • A premium lift handle and control lever are ergonomically designed and located for easy use.

Adjustable skid shoes

Adjustable skid shoe and cutting edge Adjustable skid shoe and cutting edge

Skid shoes help control the height of the snow blower cutting edge and are especially helpful for use on gravel drives and irregular surfaces.

 

Skid shoes can be adjusted by loosening the mounting bolts and positioning them to suit the operating conditions:

  • Stamped from heavy-gauge steel for long life
  • Securely held in place by two bolts
  • Can be adjusted for rough or smooth surface conditions

A heavy-duty steel cutting edge provides a durable wear surface and helps protect the snow blower housing from damage:

  • Securely held in place by seven bolts
  • Can be easily replaced if necessary

Installation and storage

Storage configuration Storage configuration

The snow blower is designed for easy installation and minimal storage space:

  • Three major components (the snow blower housing, front hitch assembly, and rear drive-sheave housing) allows for easy snow blower setup and installation
    • Installation and removal can be accomplished with the use of just one tool
  • Compact components give a smaller storage footprint for easier storage and minimal space requirement
