I have a Troy Bilt 4 cycle 5.5 hp snowblower that until today was doing the job.?

Question

I live in Michigan and we just had a major snow storm which my snow blower cannot seem to move. It's like everything gets clogged up in the chute and doesn't want to be discharged. The snow is fairly dry but deep. I believe we got between 6 and 10 inches. And I did adjust the engagement cable. Is this snow beyond what this machine can handle?? Help, my back is brealing.

Answer 1

it should handle it maybe you are going too fast, try slowing down a little bit. it sounds like the snow is wet and clogging the chute, try bringing it into the garage , letting it dry ,clear the chute, and spray some wd 40 on the surface of the chute and see what happens, good luck
