Shear Bolt and Nut 52100100

The shear bolt assembly includes one shear bolt and one nut. This shear bolt assembly is OEM guaranteed and designed to exact specification for your equipment. This part has the important job of protecting the snow blower in the event that it hits a hard object, in which case the shear pin will break, and this prevents the auger gearcase from getting damaged. If this happens, it must be replaced before your snowblower is able to operate again. The auger will not turn if the shear pin is broken. Before beginning this repair, make sure the start key has been removed from the engine. Then you will need to remove whatever is left of the damaged shear bolt. Install your new part by first aligning the holes in the rake assembly with the holes in the gear case. Insert the bolt, tap it into place and then secure it with the nut.
