Additional information

This skid shoe mounts to the bottom of the auger housing and helps control how close the housing rides to the ground surface. Snowblower skid shoe 583838801 allows the auger housing to glide over uneven terrain while protecting it from direct contact.

If the auger housing scrapes the ground, the snowblower rides unevenly, or the skid shoe is worn thin or uneven, replacement may be needed. Excessive wear, uneven clearing height, or visible damage to the skid shoe are common signs service is required.

Disconnect the spark plug wire before starting the repair. Raise and support the front of the snowblower, then remove the existing skid shoe. Install the new skid shoe at the desired height on both sides of the housing and tighten mounting bolts securely before restoring power.
