Kaboom asked:

The light on my Yardman 81/2 hsp snowblower doesn’t work and there’s nothing in the manual about a light. Any ideas out there?

Where can I get a manual for my Mastercraft snowblower Model 31AE643F515?

Wednesday, July 2nd, 2008
yankee farmer asked:


I have a Mastercraft snowblower and need a drive belt. I believe the Mastercraft Brand was bought by another company. Some searches lead me to MTD but they don’t list Mastercraft. I would like to get a manual to reference this repair and others that I might have to do in the future.

Snowblower Pneumatic Tire Question - how do you seal them to fill?

Wednesday, July 2nd, 2008
gerald_db asked:


My Yardmachines snowblower tires have flattened and are not sealing correctly when I try to fill them. They are tubeless and I just can’t seem to get the tires to seal enough to hold air. Is there a special trick like expanding them so they catch the lip enough to hold air? Website says take them to a pro but if I can do it I would prefer to of course.
