Cast-Iron Gear Case
The durable cast-iron gear case is designed to withstand demanding conditions while delivering power to the auger system for effective snow processing and discharge.
In-Dash Remote Chute & Deflector Control
The in-dash controls allow the operator to rotate the chute through 200 degrees and adjust the discharge angle without leaving the operating position.
Interlocking Controls
The interlocking control system allows both handles to be locked, freeing one hand to adjust chute rotation while the snow blower continues moving.
