Austin860 82 #1 Posted June 30, 2013 Aquired this snowblower with a tractor, owner had not used the blower, only the plow. Said it worked and ran before he removed it. Is there anything I should check before running it so I don't break anything? Any additional info on this would be great, thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JamesBe1 80 #2 Posted June 30, 2013 Hmmmm. I would have to say that it would be a great idea to lubricate all of the moveable parts and hit any grease fittings you can find with a grease gun. Is there by any chance a gearbox? You might want to check the oil if that is the case. At the least, I would hunt down a copy of the manual on the internet. Other than that, they are pretty robust.
