While exact years of production can vary, it was generally available for several seasons. This model is typically powered by a Briggs & Stratton or Tecumseh engine, ranging from 5 to 6.5 horsepower (approximately 160-195cc), with some variants offering an optional electric start for easy starting in cold weather. As a two-stage snow thrower, it utilizes an auger to break up the snow and an impeller to throw it away from the clearing path. The auger system is protected by shear pins designed to break in case of obstruction, preventing damage to the machine. It boasts a clearing width of 24 inches and an intake height of approximately 20 inches, allowing it to handle substantial snowfalls. Throwing distance is estimated to be up to 30 feet, depending on snow conditions. The drive system is wheel-driven with typically 4-6 forward speeds and 2 reverse speeds. Chute controls are usually manual, allowing the operator to adjust the direction and angle of the snow stream. While not typically equipped with heated grips, some models may feature a headlight for improved visibility during early morning or late evening snow removal. The Murray 624809X54A is well-suited for homeowners and property managers dealing with moderate snow accumulations on driveways, sidewalks, and patios.","specifications":"

Inspect Auger and Impeller: Regularly check the auger blades and impeller for wear or damage. Replace worn or damaged parts to maintain optimal snow throwing performance.
Check and Replace Shear Pins: Shear pins protect the auger from damage. Keep a supply of spare shear pins on hand and replace them immediately if they break.
Change Oil Annually: Change the engine oil at least once a year, or more frequently if you use the snow blower heavily. Use the oil type recommended in your owner's manual.
Use Fuel Stabilizer: Add fuel stabilizer to the gasoline before storing the snow blower for the off-season to prevent fuel degradation and carburetor problems.
