Do you have a question about the 920021-Compact 24 LE and is the answer not in the manual?
Questions and answers
impeller constantly binds up and clogs chute. all belts checked and look good.
The impeller on the Ariens 920021-Compact 24 LE may bind up and clog the chute due to snow buildup. To prevent this, follow these steps:
1. Run the auger/impeller for a few minutes after use to remove loose or melting snow and prevent freezing.
2. Use the snow clean-out tool to clear clogs instead of using hands.
3. Stop the engine, remove the key, and allow hot parts to cool before clearing blockages.
Regular maintenance and proper operation can help reduce binding and clogging issues.
