Additional Information

The snowblower grooved pin, part number 05806900, holds mating parts together by fitting tightly into matched holes. The grooved design helps the pin stay seated so connected components remain aligned during operation.

You might notice parts shifting out of position, excess play developing at a connection point, or rattling during use. Vibration or a joint that no longer stays tight can also indicate the pin has worn, loosened, or gone missing.

Disconnect the spark plug wire before beginning the repair. Installing or removing a grooved pin involves striking metal components, so work gloves can help protect your hands. Drive the pin straight and confirm it is fully seated before reconnecting the spark plug wire.
