Additional Information

Snowblower skid shoe kit 84004733 includes replacement skid shoes and mounting hardware to protect the auger housing from scraping against the ground. The skid shoes slide along the surface, maintaining the correct height for the scraper bar and auger during operation.

Worn or uneven skid shoes can cause the snowblower to drag, leave behind snow, or scrape pavement. Replacing both shoes at once ensures balanced performance, consistent clearing height, and extended housing life.

Before installation, disconnect the spark plug wire to prevent accidental starting. Remove the old skid shoes, position the new ones on both sides of the auger housing, and fasten them securely using the included bolts and nuts. Adjust the height evenly and wear work gloves to protect your hands during installation.
