Additional information

This snowblower auger pulley, part number 756-05219, mounts on the auger drive shaft and helps guide the drive belt so the auger turns when the snowblower is running. It keeps the belt aligned and helps transfer power from the engine to the auger assembly for efficient snow clearing.

If the pulley groove wears or the pulley becomes damaged, the drive belt may slip, make noise, or ride improperly in the groove. You might notice reduced auger speed, uneven snow clearing, or belt fraying if the pulley does not guide the belt correctly.

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 that the belt tracks properly before using the snowblower.
