The Snapper L1630E Snow Blower is one of the largest snow blowers available from Snapper. It is equipped with a robust 4-stroke Briggs and Stratton Snow Series engine. Since it’s a 4-stroke, it saves a lot of time, which means you never have to mix the fuel and oil, the engine takes care of it. This engine produces 15. 5 foot-pounds of torque that is transferred to the wheels, auger, and impeller. The wheels on the L1630E are Arctic Trac, which provide fantastic traction and help prevent the snowthrower from slipping and sliding, even when working on very icy surfaces.
If you are looking for a smaller Snapper snow thrower, check out the Snapper SS822E Snow Thrower or the Snapper M1227E Snow Thrower. However, if you’re looking for something bigger, the Snapper XL1738E Snow Blower has a whopping 38 inches of clearing width. The clearing width of the Snapper L1630E snow blower is 0. 76 m (30 inches), while the intake height is 0. 5 m (19. 75 inches). As snow enters the casing, the auger first cuts it into smaller pieces using its serrated edges. At the same time as cutting, the auger also moves the snow towards the center of the deck, where the impeller is located. The impeller consists of 4 steel blades and has a diameter of 0. 3 m (12 in).
The impeller throws snow from the Snapper L1630E snow blower, funneling it through the chute, which is 0. 11 m (4 in) wide, made of steel. The rotation of this duct is controlled from the operator’s station. The duct can rotate 200 degrees. The L1630E Dual Stage Snow Thrower uses slider shoes so you can control the snow thrower’s cutting height, preventing it from scratching the surface you’re clearing. These slider shoes are reversible which makes their lifespan much longer compared to normal slider shoes.
