Basic InformationPart Name: Snowblower Shear Pin KitManufacturer: MTDCategory: SnowblowerPrimary Function: Connects the auger to the rotating drive shaft; designed to shear off and protect the transmission and motor when encountering hard-packed snow or foreign objects. Installation & CompatibilityCompatible Models: Fits two-stage snowblowers with 3/4 inch auger shafts made 2005 or later, including MTD, Craftsman, Cub Cadet, Troy-Bilt, Bolens, Yard Machines, Yardman, Yardworks, and White brand snowblowers. Installation Difficulty: Medium; requires attention to manual instructions for proper installation. Tools Required: Basic tools specified in the owner's manual. Additional Information: The MTD Snowblower Shear Pin Kit (part number OEM-738-04124) includes four 1/4 x 1-1/2 inch shear pins and four bow tie cotter pins. It protects the motor and transmission by breaking away when the auger hits hard-packed snow or foreign objects, preventing damage to internal drive components. This kit fits two-stage snowblowers with 3/4 inch auger shafts made in 2005 or later across multiple brands. If your auger isn't turning, the snowblower isn't clearing snow effectively, or you hear unusual noises during operation, worn or broken shear pins could be the cause. Power off the snowblower and let it cool before installing new shear pins. Follow instructions in the service manual to ensure proper alignment and secure fastening. Using genuine MTD shear pins helps maintain safe, reliable performance in tough winter conditions.
