Designed and manufactured in Brillion, Wisconsin and Oxford in the United Kingdom, Ariens outdoor power equipment has been serving commercial operators and homeowners for over 80 years.
Maximum performance is driven by the 254cc engine that also offers up to 8.5 HP and a friction disc transmission, allowing you to change speeds in rough conditions.
To keep your snowblower running at its best, experts say you should change out your spark plugs at least once per season or after every 100 running hours. You`ll know to check your spark plugs when your snowblower is slow to start, or when the engine runs differently than usual.
Replacing worn spark plugs can greatly improve your engine`s performance and efficiency, and it can be done at home with basic hand tools. Recommended spark plug replacement intervals can range from 30,000 miles to every 100,000 miles, and they vary widely by car manufacturer and spark plug metal types and design.

Will not start – Yard Machines 24" 208cc Two Stage Snow Thrower
ANSWER : If there is an adjusting screw on the carb turn it out a little bit at a time and see if that works before you do anything else. If that don’t work put the screw back where you started.
If that doesn’t work take the plug out and install a new one and while the plug is out put a table spoon of gas in the spark plug hole and reinstall the plug and put the plug wire back on. If the engine starts but stalls after the little bit of gas is used up. Take the bowl off the carb and clean it out as well as clean the fuel jet that is in the bolt that holds the bowl on. Put back together and see if that works. It is quite often dirty gas that is the problem. Especially if its been sitting. Oh yes put fresh gas in it as well.
