How to Replace Snow Blower Skid Shoes | Ariens® 

Just picked up a new Deluxe 24 and was wondering if the skid shoes were adjusted properly - now I know how to check! EDIT: Lowe's had them adjusted incorrectly. Thanks for the video

Should you always pull/adjust your scrapper blade as far forward as possible? Thank You!

I have these poly shoes on my Platinum 24 SHO, they are durable, don't leave scratch marks and perform well 👍🏽

The sticks should be placed midway because the outer edges curve up. Also make sure the shave plate nuts clear the ground.

How do you rotate in onto the handlebars when you have a Rapidtrak snowblower? TY

The original factory skids on these or any snowblower r way too small in length. I ended up going with the Aromor Skids the length of them helps with the bumps/seems/cracks in the ground by far better. Have not found these types of skids in a plastic/polymer style yet.

Thank you for this video it was very informative and helpful. Just got an Ariens DeLuxe 24 and I love it and look forward to the snow!

So my machine is not set at the correct height since I purchased it from Tru Valu and it was put assembled there. It was assembled when I purchased it and I don't have ANY pavement, just a gravel and dirt driveway and grass that I have to remove snow from. The height is most likely not in the correct position and yes, it is a BEAR to turn. I'm 68, female but I do love this machine, it was new 2 years ago. I did put Mobile 1 in it though so I wouldn't have to be changing the oil every 5 minutes. I also don't believe in changing a spark plug as often as you recommend. A good wire brush and a gap gauge is sufficient in my opinion. My lawnmower spark plug was finally replaced after 21 years and it always started on the first or second pull after a long summer. It was a Lawnboy but the new ones are junk, I got a Honda and it starts every first pull.

what do you do if the augar blades are in the way????

Mine leaked gas when I tipped it like this. Is that normal?
