Thanks again, Dony, for a great series of vids. I did pretty much the same repair to a Snapper branded blower. I found a replacement gear here in the US for about forty dollars. Had I watched your vids first I would have saved myself a whole bunch of time. I also found that the inner most portions of the augers were bent to the outside, such that the blower would push some of the snow to the sides. Bending the augers inwardly so that they just barely clear the shaft cleared up the problem.

Thanks a lot!!! This was great, I have a broken Toro 521 snowblower that looks pretty much like yours. Now I know what to do. I had a pretty good idea but seeing someone else doing it for real makes all the difference. Great job man!

We had the same exact problem with that gear on our Snowblower, it literally looked exactly the same as yours all chewed up. Not sure what they were thinking using a brass gear and then only putting grease in there. Our snowblower was only 2 years old when it went. Replaced the gear, cleaned everything, and put a decent amount of gear oil in there is what I did. No issues so far.

To clean out the gear case housing with the broken gear parts and grease is to put the two halves in a container of boiling hot water. After 5/10 minutes the grease will melt and then take a blowgun with compressed air and blow it out clean. Allot faster than degreaser or brake cleaner. All it cost you was two quarts of water.

Cereal box gaskets can work in a silicone sandwich. Thing to consider is thickness of the final sandwich because it influences how the two gear box pieces mate and form diameters around the shaft bearings and oil seals (oil seal outside diameters are important too). Cardboard is obviously water soluble so a cheap sheet of .020 gasket material might be a good investment.
