Inspect the Auger: Regularly check the auger paddles for wear and damage. Replace worn or damaged paddles to maintain optimal snow throwing performance.
Check Shear Pins: The TRS21 uses shear pins to protect the auger. Inspect the shear pins regularly and replace them immediately if they are broken. Use only the correct replacement shear pins.
