CPSC, Ariens Co. Announce Recall of Snow Throwers
Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
The hazard
The blade may not stop when the blade brake control is applied, resulting in continued blade movement. The potential for injury exists if consumers make contact with the rotary blade.
What to do
Consumers should stop using these snow throwers immediately and return them to a local Ariens dealer for a free inspection and, if needed, repair. To access the serial numbers for the units affected, check the Ariens website: www.ariens.com/safety_recall
