  • How do I clear a clogged auger on my Toro 37807 snow blower?

    If the auger/impeller is running but no snow is coming out of the discharge chute, the discharge chute may be clogged. Never use your hands to clear a clogged discharge chute.

    To clear a clogged discharge chute:

    • Stay in the operating position and release the left (traction) lever. While the auger/impeller is running, push down on the handles to raise the front of the machine a few centimeters (inches) off the pavement. Then lift the handles quickly to bump the front of the machine on the pavement. Repeat if necessary until a stream of snow comes out the discharge chute.
    • If you cannot unclog the discharge chute by bumping the front of the machine, shut off the engine, wait for all moving parts to stop, and use the snow-cleanout tool.

    For more information, see page 17 of the manual.
