A snow blower or snowblower or snow thrower is a machine for removing snow from an area where it is problematic, such as a driveway, sidewalk, roadway, railroad track, ice rink, or runway.

The commonly used term “snow blower” is misnomer, as the snow is moved using an auger or impeller instead of being blown (by air). Buy Snow Blowers by Cub Cadet

It can use either electric power (line power or battery), or a gasoline or diesel engine to throw snow to another location or into a truck to be hauled away.

This is in contrast with the action of snowplows, which push snow to the front or side. Typically, the snow is discharged to one side.

Snow blowers range from the very small, capable of removing only a few inches (a few more cm) of light snow in an 18 to 20 in (457 to 508 mm) path, to the very large, mounted onto heavy-duty winter service vehicles and capable of moving 20-foot (6.10 m) wide, or wider, swaths of heavy snow up to 6 feet (1.83 m) deep. buy Snow Blowers by Cub Cadet

Snow blowers can generally be divided into two classes: single-stage and two-stage. On a single- stage snow blower, the auger (the paddle mechanism visible from the front) pulls snow into the machine and directs it out of a discharge chute. The auger contacts the ground, making single-stage snow blowers unsuitable for use on unpaved surfaces. Buy Snow Blowers by Cub Cadet

 

 

On a two-stage snow blower, the auger pulls snow into the machine and feeds it into a high-speed impeller, which in turn directs it out ofa discharge chute.

Two-stage snow blowers can generally handle deeper snow depths than single-stage ones, and because their augers don’t touch the ground, they can be used on unpaved surfaces.

Depending on the design, snowblowers can be pressed into service throwing other things, such as water.

Safety issues

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission estimates that each year there are approximately 5,740 snowblower related injuries in the United States which require medical attention.

One problem with the design of the snow blower is that snow can build up in the auger, jamming it and stalling the motor.

This is complicated by the fact that the auger could deform before applying enough resistance to the nmotor to turn it off.

If the jam is cleared by hand, it is possible for the auger to return to its natural shape suddenly and with great force, possibly injuring the operator. Snow blowers are a leading cause of traumatic hand and finger amputations.

The correct procedure is to turn off the engine, disengage the clutch and then clear the jam with a broom handle or other long object. In an effort to improve safety, many manufacturers now include a plastic tool to be used to clear jams, often mounted directly to the snow blower.
