it used to toss snow 20 or 30 feet ,
now it's maybe 5 feet , the auger turns ,
the impaler goes but still it doesn't blow snow


Is there sufficient snow available and being fed in? If there is only
a couple inches and the machine is moving slowly, snow won't get thrown
very far because there isn't enough volume to propel it. With mine
if I try to do just a couple inches at low forward speed, the snow
just dribbles out the chute or goes a few feet.

it's at least 12 inches of snow and when i give it gas , it stalls in
the deep stuff


But at full speed, if you go slow, it stays at full speed, but only
blows it a few feet? I presume it's not real heavy, wet snow either?
