Specification

At $13.99 Canadian, this sits where you would expect for the class. Late summer through October is when choice is widest across the whole catalogue.

Regional notes

What a machine meets in the lake effect belts is depth repeatedly, sometimes twice in a day, which is a different problem from the national average. Stock moves quickly once the snow starts, which is the only real argument for ordering early.

Freight across the country slows once the first storms arrive, so autumn is when a spare actually reaches you quickly. Thirty year normals for your own station are published free by Environment and Climate Change Canada.

Before you order

Stock number R0200655-00 is what to quote if you email us to check a fit, because it removes the guesswork entirely. Model names persist for years while the components underneath them do not.

Offer the part up dry first and confirm every hole lines up before committing. Do not overtighten into plastic. It feels secure and then cracks in the first cold snap.

Where to find the stamped number on each part is covered in the snow blower repair guide. Give us the model and serial from the machine plate and the identification takes minutes rather than days.

Signs it has reached the end

Components in this family announce themselves fairly consistently. Any of the following is worth acting on before the next storm.

• a missing cover left off after an earlier repair
• rattling that changes when the panel is pressed
• a cracked panel letting water into the controls
• a bracket no longer holding its component square
• grit collecting where a guard should be

Cold makes plastic brittle, so most breakages happen in January rather than July. Order before the first forecast moves demand and the item is on a shelf rather than on a backorder.

Fitting notes

A pulled plug lead is the difference between a repair and an incident report. Photograph each stage as you go. It takes seconds and saves an hour at reassembly.

Fit fasteners loosely, square the panel, then tighten. Forcing a bracket stresses its mounting points. Compare both parts side by side first, particularly length and hole spacing.

Clear blockages with the tool, never with a glove, and never with the engine merely idling. The same rule applies whenever the auger housing is open.

Reading the listing

This is catalogued as skid, plate, assembly, throwers, and every one of those terms is doing work. Position words such as upper, lower, left and right are the ones people skip, and they are the ones that cause returns.

This line is R0200655-00. The 22 inch figure is the clearing width rather than the overall width of the machine. Use those figures rather than a description and the fitment is settled.

What else to check

Most of what fails next is already visible while you have access. Do not close the assembly without checking the fasteners you have just disturbed. Look at the seals at every shaft exit before you close it up. Give the linkage rods and their clips a proper look while access is easy.

We hold all of those on snow blower parts, listed by the number stamped on the part. the maintenance checklist sets out the seasonal order to work through them in, and the snow blower repair guide covers what to do when one of them turns out to be the real fault.

What to keep on the shelf

There is a short list of components that fail during a storm, and every one of them is inexpensive if bought before the storm. Keep the stock numbers written inside the machine cover and reordering takes under a minute.

All of it sits on snow blower parts and ships Canada wide from stock held here. October is the quiet month for this. February is not, and freight times show it. Store it off a bare concrete floor. Concrete wicks moisture and rusts steel from the underside where nobody looks.

People shopping for a snow blower skid plate assembly usually start with price and end with availability. The sensible order is the reverse. Establish that a snow blower skid plate assembly of this type suits your surface and your typical snowfall, then compare what the market charges for it.

The market for a snow blower skid plate assembly in Canada is thinner than it should be, which is part of why we stock this properly. A snow blower skid plate assembly that nobody carries parts for is a machine with an expiry date.
