My Qa42A is plugging up in subzero weather
I have a QA42A that I have mounted on my 1450 and am not pleased with how its been working. I have read that by ensuring the auger housing and chute are painted and smooth is a good remedy for plugging. My QA42A is in need of repainting and the chute is rough iniside. The one thing I see is the exhaust is blowing onto the blower itself and it seems the snow is packing up because of it.
Over the years I have had quite a few differnent snow blowers and throwers on the front of garden tractors and this QA42A is my least favorite so far as is. I was looking at a Haban H42 recently and noticed some type of heat shield mounted on it. Is such a thing used on the QA42A blowers as well? In the meantime I am going to put the torpedo heater on my QA and try to work on the paint to begin with. This blower is not the 1st one I have run that was in need of a paint job. Wet snow always sucks with a single stage but my temperatures have been below 20 and in the negatives recently but this QA42a plugs up within minutes.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
