Ariens Recalls Snow Throwers and Power Brushes Due to Amputation and Laceration Hazards
Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
The hazard
A drive pulley can crack while in use and cause the auger/impeller or brush to continue to rotate after the clutch lever is disengaged. This poses amputation and laceration hazards to consumers.
What to do
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled snow throwers and brushes and contact Ariens Company for a free repair. Consumers should remember to never put their hands into the discharge chute.
