Additional Information

This gearbox, part number 918-07238, transfers power from the engine to the auger blades so the snowblower can break up and move snow through the housing.

If the auger stops turning, you hear grinding noises, or see signs of oil leakage around the gearbox, the internal gears may be worn or damaged and the gearbox should be replaced.

Disconnect the spark plug wire before beginning the repair. Wear work gloves when working around the auger assembly, gearbox components and metal parts.
