Gear, Chute 03222900

This chute gear in your snowblower is a plate-like part found in the discharge chute crank mechanism. It is responsible for controlling the movement of the chute, allowing you to direct the snow being discharged. The gear attaches to the chute and is rotated by a pinion gear. If the chute gear is broken, you may notice chipped or missing teeth on the gear. It may also have difficulty rotating smoothly or become stuck, making it challenging or impossible to adjust the chute. To remove the chute gear, you will need a socket and a screwdriver. Start by removing the gear cover, which is typically secured with screws. Once the cover is removed, you will have access to the chute gear assembly. Remove any necessary components until the chute gear is free to be lifted off its shaft. When replacing the chute gear, it is important to note that it is sold separately from any accompanying hardware or fasteners.
