Winter Check List

[Peterfield]

I would add change the oil on your snow blower. I have an Ariens and they recommend every 40 hours. I do it once a year with 5W-30 so it starts up easier. I also do the same to my standby generator. I am also going to add grease to my snow blower gearbox this year.

Changing the oil in the generator with 10-30. I got it started but too much effort to turn it over so fresh oil will hopefully help address that. I ran my lawnmower dry then put in some ethanol-free gas that also has Stabil in it. Ran it for five minutes and put it away. Draining the tanks of a leaf blower and weed whacked and using two-cycle ethanol gas "Trufuel" and run both of a few minutes and they'll be good to go next Spring.
