What to do if my Craftsman 247.88794 unit fails to discharge snow?

  Amanda BrowningSep 9, 2025
  If your Craftsman Snow Blower isn't discharging snow, it could be due to: * A clogged chute assembly; stop the engine, disconnect the spark plug wire, and clean the chute assembly and auger housing with a clean-out tool. * A foreign object lodged in the auger; stop the engine, disconnect the spark plug wire, and remove the object with a clean-out tool. * An auger cable needing adjustment. Refer to Assembly section. * A loose or damaged auger belt. Refer to Service and Maintenance section. * Shear pins may have sheared; replace them as instructed in the Operation section.

  If your Craftsman Snow Blower is vibrating excessively, stop the engine immediately, disconnect the spark plug wire, and check for loose parts or damage to the auger or impeller. Tighten all bolts and nuts. If the vibration continues, have the unit serviced by a Sears Parts & Repair Center.
