NEW! Introducing the newest force of nature in the legendary ion series: iON8024-XRP, the revolutionary next-generation 24-inch self-propelled dual-stage cordless snow blower from SNOW JOE. iON8024-XRP’s groundbreaking, rechargeable 80-Volt power plant and powerful 2500 W brushless motor has what it takes to weather winter’s worst, featuring two interchangeable Eco Sharp 40 V 6. 0 Ah batteries to deliver GAS-FREE and CORD-FREE no-fade performance, with zero carbon emissions for cleaner air. iON8024-XRP starts instantly with a simple push of the illuminated display, to put the legendary power of ion at your fingertips for unparalleled snow-shredding performance, courtesy of its cutting-edge 4-speed digital drive system (3-speed & XPORT). And ion’s integrated illuminated battery indicators mean you’ll never be left in the dark when it comes to having the information you need close at hand.

Ergonomic trigger grips provide optimum comfort and reduce stress from squeezing, and the integrated scraper bar at the base of the unit lets you clear right to the ground without damaging your deck or pavement. Other exclusive iON8024-XRP features include a 180° thumb-switch auto-rotate chute to direct the snow stream up to 32 feet away, dual integrated 3 W LED headlamps to light the way for safe nighttime clearing, and wide, knobby rubber TracAssist tires for maximum traction in the most challenging winter weather conditions.

Buyer Guide Snow Blowers

 If like me, you dread dumping snow on your driveway, you’ll want to check out these buying guide tips.

• Manual or Electric? If you’re someone who just wants the snow cleared without the hassle of dealing with cords, manual snow blowers would be the best bet for you. However, if you’d rather not deal with cords, electric snow blowers might be a better choice.
• Price. Price can range widely, but you’ll want to compare prices between similar models. It’s best to look for a snow blower that’s priced in the middle.
• Capacity. Capacity is the amount of snow a snow blower can clear in a single pass.
• Height. Snow blowers come in two basic varieties – standard and tall. Tall models have a lift that allows for higher clearing heights but at the cost of reduced mobility.
• Width. Width is usually measured in inches. Wide models are sometimes easier to maneuver around tight spaces.
• Length. Length is the distance a snow blower can throw snow.
• Amps. Amps measure the amount of power a snow blower has.
• Tires. Tires are basic, yet essential, parts that dictate the maneuverability of a snow blower

How to choose Snow Blowers

 

1. Engine Size – the engines sizes are measured in cubic centimeters or cubic inches
2. Horsepower – an engine’s horsepower is determined by multiplying the engine’s cubic centimeters by 37.3
3. Variable Speed – if this feature is on your snow blower, the forward speed of the snow blower can be adjusted up and down
4. Handling – for heavy snow, a snow blower’s handles should be large and easy to grab
5. Power Steering – this helpful feature makes moving the snow blower around easier
6. Chute – the chute is where the snow is ejected from the snow blower
7. Reciprocating – snow blowers with a power stroke feature, like the Thomas engine auger, rely on reciprocation of motion
8. Substitution – to find out if your snow blower can be used in the winter, check the manual that comes with the snow blower or call us
9. Snow Tires – snow tires should be larger than regular tires to ensure proper traction

How to maintain Snow Blowers

 

1. Changing oils – this varies by model. Make sure to follow the manufacturer’s recommendations.
2. Changing filters – always, always, always change the filter.
3. Cleaning – some manufacturers recommend a snow blower-specific cleaner, but any lubricant like WD-40 should be fine
4. Storage – if you have the space, store your snow blower in a protected area like a garage or shed
5. Troubleshooting – if your snow blower is stuck in gear, check the drive belt to see if it’s wrapped. Pull off the belt from your snow blower and spin it. If it spins and the belt is in good shape, put it back on and give it another go. If it still doesn’t work, replace the belt.
