    Ariens Snowblower Problems
    I have an Ariens 5524 snow thrower. It has started to push snow in front of it. It only throwes snow 6 to 8 feet. This happens at all speeds. The snow was only 3 inches deep and not heavy at all. Any ideas why it is pushing the snow?

    Hi,
    My guess is belt slippage. Since I live in an area virtually without snowthrowers, or the need for them, I can only guess. Down here the most common use for them is to clean out chicken coops and stables.
    The manual is available at:
    Ariens Order Owners Manuals
    If you get the correct model number(6 digits) and serial number(for breaks) off the black on silver or white tag.
    Peace,
    Clarke
