This item replaces part number 721011. It also cross-references with OEM numbers 01028600, 02483859, 24599, 2483859, 106500, 245995, and 2483851.
Skid shoes set the scraper bar and auger housing height above the ground. They allow the snow thrower to ride on a durable contact point, preventing the housing from grinding directly against pavement, gravel, or uneven surfaces. Properly adjusted skid shoes reduce wear on the auger housing and help prevent premature damage during operation.
Common signs include the shoes being worn thin or uneven, the blower housing scraping the ground, difficulty maintaining an even clearing height, excessive sparking when contacting pavement, or one side of the machine sitting lower than the other. If your scraper bar is wearing down quickly, worn skid shoes are often the primary cause.
This is a straightforward repair. On most snow throwers, you simply support or tilt the machine safely, loosen the mounting hardware, remove the old shoes, set the new shoes to your desired height, and retighten the bolts. Basic hand tools are all that is required, and the process typically takes 15 to 30 minutes.
Adjustment depends on the surface you are clearing. For smooth paved driveways, set the shoes lower for a closer scrape. For gravel, pavers, or uneven surfaces, set them higher to ensure the scraper bar and housing do not dig into the ground or throw stones. After tightening both sides, ensure the snow thrower sits level and both shoes make even contact with the ground.
Yes. It is recommended to check the scraper bar, mounting bolts, and the lower edge of the auger housing for wear. If the old skid shoes were heavily worn, inspect the brackets for bending or the housing for uneven damage. This is also an ideal time to confirm that both sides are adjusted equally to ensure the machine tracks straight and clears snow evenly.
