Ranch King Snow Removal Equipment Parts

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.

This scraper blade is an authentic OEM replacement part for a snowblower. Snowblowers operate using an auger that scoops up the snow and blows it to a different location. However, an auger cannot gather all of the snow because it would have to scrape against the ground. Scraping that auger against the ground would damage its blades and make them unusable. Instead, this scraper blade drags against the ground and collects any remaining snow so that the auger blades can remain protected. Scraper blades can be damaged if the snowblower goes over rocky terrain. Although it is nearly impossible for a blade to snap completely off a blower, the blade will leave the snow behind, making the blower less effective if chipped or dented. To replace a scraper blade, simply use a socket wrench to unbolt the blade from the auger housing. Be sure not to lose the bolts as they will be needed for reassembly. This part is compatible with Craftsman, MTD, Cub Cadet, Ryobi, Huskee, Yard Man, and Yard Machines snowblowers and is sourced from the original manufacturer. This part is a high-quality replacement part. It does not ship with additional hardware.

The shave plate, also called the scraper bar, is an important but often overlooked part of a snowblower. This thin metal strip sits at the bottom of the auger housing against the ground and gathers the snow the auger will expel through the chute. Made of hard plastic, the shave plate is the only part of the snowblower that actually touches the snow-covered ground without rolling. As durable as the shave plate is manufactured to be, it constantly comes into contact with unseen objects that pound, slice, and pit it. Eventually, the shave blade has to be replaced. To replace the blade, simply invert the blower, unscrew the old blade, attach the new blade, and put the blower right side up again. As long as the user is replacing the shave plate and has the machine upside down, this is an ideal time to check for damage to the wheels, the auger blades, driveshaft, and the condition of the shear pin. If this replacement is taking place in preparation for the coming winter, it might be a good time to replace the oil and oil filter as well. Be sure to use genuine OEM replacement parts that perfectly match the factory originals. This blade is compatible with snowblowers made by Yard-Man, Bolens, Yard Machines, Troy-Bilt, Craftsman, Ryobi, Cub Cadet, Huskee, Montgomery Wards, and Ryobi.

This is a shear bolt, also known as a shear pin, which is used in many models of snowblowers. The shear bolt connects the auger shaft to the auger on the tool. This connection allows the augers to rotate, collecting snow and sending it to the impeller fan. Most snowblowers have at least one shear pin on each side of the auger gearcase. Large objects that get stuck between the housing and augers can damage the pins, necessitating replacement.If there is damage to the shear bolt or if it has broken, the snowblower may not work as expected. To replace the bolt, the snowblower should be turned off. Wear work gloves and remove the spark plug wire before disassembling the snowblower to reach the shear bolt.
