Auger/blower replacement
The auger is subject to wear as it contacts the road surface and gravel. A snow
thrower with a worn auger performs poorly. Replace a worn auger with a new
one.
When the auger or blower is deformed, do not try to correct it with external
force. That can cause cracks and injury as a result.
• Replace the auger and blower with new ones if they contact the housing while
turning, when the snow clearing performance becomes poor, or when the snow
is not thrown far enough.
• Consult with your authorized Honda snow thrower dealer for auger and blower
replacement.

The snow clearing
performance decreases as the
auger becomes worn. Replace
the auger with a new one if it
is worn and shows the poor
performance in catching the
snow.
To prevent the early failure of
the auger, do not let the auger
contact the road surface.
