Toro Power Max HD 1232 OHXE (32″) 375cc Two-Stage Snow Blower 38842

The Toro Power Max HD 1232 OHXE, model 38842, is a new two-stage snow blower with a 375cc Toro OHV engine and all-steel construction, built for a 32-inch clearing width. Power steering with trigger controls is built in, a step up from the simpler drive systems on Toro's smaller Power Max models.

What it is for

At 32 inches wide and with heavier all-steel construction than Toro's smaller two-stage models, this blower suits larger driveways and repeated heavy-snow use rather than occasional light clearing. 16-inch tires and a self-propelled friction disc drive system carry the weight through deep or wet snow, and the 375cc OHV engine has the reserve power that a long clearing run tends to demand.

What to check before buying

• Controls: one-hand interlock lets the operator release the controls briefly without stalling the drive or auger system.
• Lighting and comfort: LED headlights and built-in handwarmers are standard for early-morning or cold-weather clearing.
• Maintenance: the gearbox and gears use no shear pins, and Toro's patented Anti-Clogging System cuts down on chute jams.

Is it electric start? Yes, electric start is standard.

What is the warranty? A 3-year consumer warranty backs this model.

Quick Stick chute control rounds out the operator comforts on this model, letting you redirect discharge without releasing the drive handles in the middle of a pass. power equipment

What colour is it? It comes in the factory red and black finish.
