Additional information

This snowblower chute crank, part number 747-0624-0637, lets you adjust the direction of snow discharge by turning the crank handle during operation. It connects to the chute linkage and transfers rotational movement so the chute turns smoothly and stays positioned where you set it.

If the chute crank bends, wears, or breaks, the chute may be hard to turn or may not move at all when the crank is rotated. You might notice stiffness, uneven movement, or a crank that spins without changing the chute direction.

Disconnect the spark plug wire before starting the repair to prevent accidental startup. Chute linkage components can have sharp edges or tight clearances, so wearing work gloves can help protect your hands during installation. Make sure the crank is properly aligned and secured so the chute rotates freely through its full range.

Snowblower chute crank 747-0624-0637 replaces part numbers 747-0624 and 747-0959.
