Description
This recall involves certain Ariens DELUXE-, PLATINUM- and PROFESSIONAL-series Sno-Thro® models. The recalled snow throwers were sold in a bright orange color and are equipped with either rear wheels or tracks. The model and serial numbers are located on the white square ID tag on the frame. Some recalled snowblowers have already been inspected and repaired. Consumers are urged to visit https://www.ariensco.com/safetyrecall for a list of recalled units.
Hazard
The recalled snow thrower impeller and auger assembly can continue rotating even after the operator control lever is released, posing a laceration hazard if a user makes contact with the rotating parts inside the housing enclosure at the front of the machine.
Remedy
