This is a replacement shave plate for use with snowblowers. The plate attaches to the bottom of the auger housing on the machine and provides protection for the auger and the housing. If it is broken or not functioning properly, debris could damage these other parts of the snowblower. This would then require a larger repair.The shave plate is made from metal and is durable. However, the nature of the plate is to provide protection, which means it will become dinged and damaged over time. It could become bent if the user hits a large rock or chunk of ice. If there is damage to the snowblower shave plate, the user should be sure to replace it before using the machine again.This snowblower shave plate is compatible with models from Craftsman, MTD, White Outdoor, Ranch King, Yard-Man, and Yard Machines. The plate is sold individually, and it is a genuine OEM replacement part sourced from the manufacturer.

This genuine MTD slide shoe leaves a sliver of snow between the snowblower and the surface in order to prevent damage to the surface it is being used on. Snowblower slide shoes can also prevent dirt, debris, gravel, and pebbles from flying out of and around the snowblower's radius of work. Slide shoes for snowblowers might suffer damage as a result of age, overuse, exposure to the elements, or direct collision or impact. If this affects the ability of the slide shoes to protect surfaces from damage when the snowblower is in use, the slide shoes should be removed and replaced before using the snowblower again. Remember to always wear gloves when handling, repairing, and operating outdoor equipment. This slide shoe is compatible with the following brands: MTD, Craftsman, and Troy-Bilt. Part sold individually.

A cotter pin, also known as a hitch pin, is used to secure pins and shafts in place. Meant for snowblowers, riding lawnmowers, and lawn tractors, this bow-tie shaped cotter pin has a double-end design making it easy to pull or push through either side of a pre-drilled hole. This pin snaps into a locked position without tension, keeping it secure during operation. Designed for lawn and garden maintenance equipment, this part ensures secure fastening. If the power equipment is used frequently, cotter pins may have to be replaced regularly so it would be practical to keep extra bow tie cotter pins on hand. It is highly recommended that work gloves be worn during the installation of this part. This part is compatible with Craftsman, Cub Cadet, Troy-Bilt, Murray, Yard Machines, MTD, Huskee, Bolens, Yard-Man, and MasterCut brands of lawn mower, snowblower, and log splitters. This is a genuine OEM replacement part that is sold individually.

The shear pin’s purpose is to stop the engine when it is broken. If the machinery hits something hard, the shear pin will break. This prevents injuries that could be fatal. If something large or small becomes clogged or jammed in the auger, the shear pin is meant to snap in half, rendering the auger useless. This happens once the auger reaches a certain point in pressure load, which also prevents damage to the rest of your equipment. The auger part of your machinery cannot turn without a shear pin. Since the purpose of the shear pin is to break on impact, it's a good idea to have several of these on hand for quick replacements. There’s nothing like having your equipment break down in the middle of a job. Repair is simple. Just remove the broken shear pin, line up the auger’s holes, and insert your new shear pin. Use the cotter pin to secure your shear pin. This genuine OEM auger shear pin works in conjunction with small engine equipment with augers made by Craftsman, Cub Cadet, MTD, Troy-Built, Yard Machines, and Yard-Man. This part is sold individually. Consider also ordering an MTD Pin-Bow Tie Cotter or retaining clip.
