The Husqvarna Snow Blowers Guide was designed to help people in the market looking for a solution to a common winter problem. Investing in the right snow blowing equipment can help you efficiently deal with excess buildup of daily snow and make the most of the winter season. We know that proper research is essential to making an informed purchase – that’s why we’ve included a number of sections in our website where you can find detailed information on operations, troubleshooting, available models and even FAQs.

For a bit of background on the company’s history, the Husqvarna group have established an impressive portfolio of power tools manufacturers.

Finding the ideal snow blower for your property 

Based on the size of the area you will be using the blower in, make sure that you go through all the available models and find a model that’s suitable for your requirement. Here are three of our personal recommendations for small to larger locations:

  1. ST 151 –
    Despite being a small and handily designed blower, the ST 151 delivers powerful performance and is perfect for small independent properties. The push operated single-stage blower is sturdily built with a cylinder displacement of 208 cm.  
  2. ST 224P
    With a powerful two-stage mechanism and a broad 24 inch operational width, the ST 224P is ideal for larger properties with more open area. The self-driven system combines ergonomic handling with convenience, enabling long-term usage with minimum discomfort.
  3. ST 330T
    The ST 330T was designed with the highest standards in industrial usage in mind. With an enormous 414 cm cylinder displacement and 30 inches of operational width, this heavy duty blower is built for large commercial spaces and public residential areas.    

Common Problems 

Considering the rough outdoor use that power tools like snow blowers are subjected to on a regular basis, it’s not uncommon for owners to run into occasional niggles from time to time. However, these are often minor issues that do not need professional assistance and can usually be resolved in your own garage. Here are a few common issues:

  • Snow blower not starting:
    Inspect the spark plug – a defective spark plug or faulty ignition coil is the most common reason for a blower refusing to start. If the spark plug is fine, check the state of your fuel and ensure that the carburetor has been cleaned.
  • Blower not blowing snow properly:
    Check the discharge chute for accumulated snow buildup – daily cleaning of the chute is recommended to avoid disruptions in the blower’s performance. Inspect the blower’s auger and drive system for faults. If you use a single stage blower, inspect the scraper bar and paddles for wear and tear and replace if necessary.  
  • Gas leaking from snow blower:
    Check the carburetor gasket and ensure that the seal is tight – if the gasket has become dry, it will need to be replaced. A faulty bowl gasket could also cause fuel to leak so we recommend that you check the bottom of the carburetor as well.
