Additional information

This snowblower auger pulley, part number 756-0243, mounts on the auger drive shaft and guides the drive belt so the auger spins during operation. It helps keep the belt aligned and transfers rotational force from the engine to the auger assembly.

If the pulley groove or bore wears, the belt may slip, squeal, or ride improperly in the groove. You might notice reduced auger speed, uneven snow clearing, belt fraying, or unusual noises coming from the drive area.

Disconnect the spark plug wire before starting the repair to prevent accidental startup. The pulley and belt area can have sharp edges, so wearing work gloves can help protect your hands during installation. Make sure the pulley is fully seated on the shaft and the belt sits correctly in the groove before using the snowblower.
