Additional Information

The snowblower auger housing, part number 1736708D, forms the front structure of the snowblower, supports the auger, and channels snow into the discharge area. A properly aligned housing helps the auger pull snow consistently across the full clearing width.

If the snowblower pulls unevenly, leaves behind snow in the clearing path, or vibrates excessively during use, the auger housing may be bent, damaged, or misaligned. Visible dents, cracks, or mounting points that do not sit flush can also interfere with normal auger rotation and snow flow.

Disconnect the spark plug wire before beginning the repair. The auger housing is a large metal component with sharp edges and multiple mounting points, so work gloves can help protect your hands during handling and installation. Align the housing carefully and tighten all fasteners evenly before reconnecting the spark plug wire.
