This was a helpful video. The belts were slipping so bad that the engine didn't even feel load and occasionally the belts slipped so much that the gear drive wouldn't turn with the slightest amount of resistance from ice build up.
Just had my brand new ariens compact 24 auger stop spinning. Gonna try this and see if that resolves it.
Thanks very much
How do you tighten the gear bolt to the housing on a 5520 Ariens Snow blower. It hangs down and keeps allowing the component on the friction wheel to come apart.
Sadly today I just bought a 920021 that cable with a drive cable that was to short. The snow blower just goes the second it turns on.
This is fine with a new machine, but what if turning the barrel also turns the threaded rod? Answer: the threads in the rod are likely frozen in place; this was my experience. I resolved this situation with some PB spray and two pairs of good pliers. Using a cloth, I protected the distal end of the threaded rod and gripped it firmly. This allowed me to break the adjusting barrel free with a twist.
Surgical!
Follow up on comment below: went back to my dealer (last winter) and free of charge he gave me a set of composite skid shoes. What a difference!!! Machine works beautiful. Machine should have come with them to begin with!
Wish they kept the old system. I have a brand new 2018 deluxe 24 with the AutoTurn clutch and it sucks! I’ve adjusted as recommended by the owners manual and their RUclips video and I am still fight to keep it going straight down the driveway!! Machine is really really nice except for the AutoTurn function. I’ll try to raise the scraper bar/ lower the skid shoes a little lower, but now I think I’ll be defeating the purpose of having the scraper and will be leaving more snow on the ground. Any ideas on this issue ?
Paul I had the same problem with my 2014 24" Platinum. Resolved most of the wandering by changing to the composition skids and resetting the two halves and setting the skid bar to 1/8". Still jumps in the ruts but fine otherwise.
Dennis - hi Dennis, i went back to my dealer and he gave me (free of charge) a set of composite skid shoes. What a difference!!! Like night and day. The machine really should have come with them. Btw Thank you for your reply!
I had to do this on a brand new Ariens (920021) I bought last year. Shouldn't this be done at the Factory? It also wanders forward when it is running and in idle position. Again, Shouldn't these adjustment be done at the factory?
Or the dealer should have properly made all adjustment before delivery.
@@davidklimek7999 Dealer. I doubt these things come fully assembled.
I wonder if the comments regarding poor set up were due to purchases from big box stores? My Ariens was set up perfect by my small shop/dealer. I had to adjust a friend's unit purchased from a big box store. Ariens should require any business selling their product to have due diligence (yeah, I am dreaming).
You are correct, Bill. These videos are both training tools for our retail chain partner stores as well as for customers who purchased their units online and had them delivered to their door in the box.
Good to know the set up anyways for all owners. Thanks @@AriensChannel
Please why do we need to place it in service position and removed the bottom cover after ajusting the first cable?!!! Another question, my machine is brand new and both cable are loose. Is it normal that when i push the auger lever down there is a KLUNG every time i use that lever? it really scared me. Thanks
Thanks for the question, Gaétan. Both cables will appear to be loose when the clutch levers are disengaged and will become taut when the levers are engaged. Both cables are set at the factory, but if they are not calibrated correctly, then it's possible they became loose during shipment. Additionally, you'll only need to place the unit in the service position to verify the distance between the attachment brake roller and the frame after completing the auger clutch adjustment.
Finally, that sound you hear when engaging the auger clutch is normal. When the lever is engaged, it tightens the belt against the engine drive sheave that's spinning at about 3600 RPM. When that belt tension is applied, the auger drive pulley speed increases from 0 to 3600 RPM very quickly, resulting in that shudder-like noise.
How is the drive tension adjustment achieved after the friction disk has worn each season. The tension adjustment
of having the swing gate finger touch front of stop hole is only applicable when a friction disk is new.
Once the rubber starts to wear off what is the method to make adjustment. The shown method will not
maintain a consistent tension between friction disk and drive swing. Note that the distance
between friction disk rubber and swing plate will increase as the unit is used.
Thanks for asking, Mike. Once the friction disc wear is beyond the cable adjustment, the friction disc will need to be replaced.
Is there some spray lubricant one can use to throw wet snow better without the chute clogging, not that I figure not to have some. Is there away to slow down the speed the snow thrower when traveling it move too fast for me even in the,lowest speed forward even reverse too.
Thanks for asking, David. We actually do offer a product called Snow-Jet to help prevent wet, heavy snow from sticking to your components and clogging your Sno-Thro. It's in stock at our parts store online: parts.ariens.com/11-oz-Snow-Jet-Non-Stick-Polymer-Spray-p/70709000.htm
Also, there is no way to modify the speed of the unit other than shifting into the lowest speed with the speed selector lever in your dash panel.
you can use silicone spray or wax and polish the inside of the chute to prevent a lot od sticking.
Make sure 1st and 1st reverse are close in speed. If one is slow and one is fast, the position of the friction wheel can be moved.
I bought a Snow-Tek and the blower wanted to stay in reverse, even in front-wards drive. I adjusted the Sno-Tek , according to the manual, and each adjustment through-off other critical adjustment too far. Either, the manual is wrong, or the machine is out of whack. The machine is BRAND NEW from Home Depot. So, I guess Ariens suggests that I take it "In" to an authorized repair facility, so that I can be charged on top of the $650?
My deluxe 28 I have to change the friction disc every year. Why is this, my other Snow Blower’s never had this problem
The background music is very distracting.
The new cable attachment to the clutch gear broke.
Could never understand why there's a spring that stretches on the cable when it needs to be taut to pull the mechanism to rotate the auger. I have to constantly adjust that cable.
The spring on the cable maintains a preset tension on the swing arm that enages the auger. If not there, you would cook belts. If it is constantly out of adjustment, it may be a low quality belt. The cheap belts will stretch well beyond allowable specs.
My thrower pulls to the right, what adjustments should I do?
check your tired pressure my did the same thing and that was the problem
Adjust your tire pressure, make sure the skid plates are set at the same height, remove and grind down the scraper blade so the wear pattern is uniform across the bucket width, and check your gears for uneven wear or failure in the transmission.
Put lifts in your right shoe.
You have nothing telling me what the lower traction control cable attaches, how it attaches, or where.
I just bought a Classic 24, the lower traction control cable came off.
Hi Brent, we're very sorry for your experience. You may be able to find the answer in this document linked below. You might find what you need on page 32: apache.ariens.com/manuals/05135330A.pdf
If you still have questions, please contact your nearest authorized Ariens servicing dealer. You can find a dealer in your area at the link below: www.ariens.com/en-us/dealer-locator
@@AriensChannel I was able to figure out that the lower traction control cable goes to a stub pin on the lower left hand side of the Friction Drive pivot plate.
Took awhile, this isn't clear from diagrams and nothing describes what or where it attaches to.
As for how it came off to begin with, I am at a loss.
From what I gather, there is supposed to be a cotter/hair pin and a washer preventing the cable eyebuckle from slipping off.
Either the pin broke or wasn't present.
I had to jury rig a fix to get up and running.
Currently waiting on two pins and washers to come in, a replacement and a spare.
Paid nearly $1,000 for Ariens Compact 24. Used highest octane gas available and two-year stabilizer. After 3 uses at end of season it wouldn't start. Ariens dealer said it needed a new carburetor and it wasn't covered under 3-year warranty because it was an owner gas error. even though I followed the manual to a 'T.' I had to foot the nearly $200 bill. Used it for a few minutes in foot high light snow a few days ago and it stopped throwing snow. It is not the shear pins so I assume it is the auger. I wrote Ariens a letter re: the carburetor issue months ago and they never responded. Their warranty isn't worth the paper it's written on. Do yourself a favor and buy another brand..
Having the same problem. Garbage.
I only use rec gas and sea foam in mine... It literally starts on the second pull after setting all spring summer and fall. It's 4 years old now and I have used the electric start one time!
Have had my Ariens for 8 years now, no major problems......occasional shear pin.
Use ethanol free gas so it won’t gum up the carburetor, and or, use a gas stabilizer. Any brand of snowblower will gum up the carb, if you’re not careful. Good luck.
Gas is garbage these days. Even stabilizer doesn't always cut it. Best best is to drain it and run it dry at the end of the season.
Own a compact 24 it's a good thing I have a snow plow on a John Deere because it's the worst snow blower I've ever owned
What a terrible video. Thank god there are others out there doing repair videos. Nice this is on a new machine.
Is it me or is this video all over the place? He says things like put it in the service position and remove the bottom cover but never shows it in the service position and cover removed. This video did help with adjustments of the cables but nothing else helped much.
The music is repulsive.
volume is to low
its way too quiet and mumbly, this needs to be remade
You speak too fast on critical steps, nobody taught you to emphasize important points? You are too monotone and rush too much through key points.
31acruz yeah because he wants YOU to take it to the Dealer.. POS !
i agree, can't follow this guy.
If my comment is not followed-up on by Ariens, spend your money elsewhere, since they won't even read comments from their own videos.
Not to happy just got the 90021 will not move forward or back NOT VERY GOOD QUALITY CONTROL SHAME ON YOU ARIENS!!!
bah bah bah get a new spokeman
I have a newer Ariens and I friggin HATE IT ! REASON ? because They over engineered the POS ! old ones had a pulley adjustment, that’s about it. Listen to this idiot, Take it to the Dealer.. Sick of New Crap, including Trucks and Cars. They make them so the average person cannot work on them, and if so, it is Long and dragged out.. Sick of it ! ANYONE ??
Thanks for your input, but we're sorry you feel that way. We include all adjustment procedures related to the auger drive and wheel drive for each of our Sno-Thro models in the operator's manual for each unit. All of those adjustments can be completed in your own garage, too - no special tools required.
We only suggest taking the unit to the dealer for customers who don't feel comfortable completing the procedures themselves.
I agree with you 100%..........
@@AriensChannel Yeah, in 8 degree weather with an unheated garage.
