Toro Power Max HD Commercial 1428 OHXE (28″) 420cc Two-Stage Snow Blower 38843

The Power Max HD Commercial 1428 OHXE carries the largest engine in Toro's lineup here, a 420cc unit, inside the same 28-inch clearing width as the smaller HD models, aimed at properties that clear long runs of pavement every storm. All-steel construction and electric start are standard, and the steering is power-assisted with triggers rather than fully automatic.

What makes this the commercial step-up

A commercial-grade auger gearcase and heavy-duty cast iron skid shoes are built for sustained use rather than occasional storms, and drift cutters on the housing are meant to slice through the hard-packed edges that build up along a plowed lot. LED headlights are paired with handwarmers on the grips, useful for operators running the machine for extended stretches in the cold.

Before you commit to this size

This is the heaviest-duty machine in the lineup, so confirm you have the storage space and a use case that justifies a 420cc engine, such as a long driveway, a commercial lot, or repeated heavy-snow seasons. Internally, the gearing skips shear pins altogether, the anti-clogging system is Toro's patented design, and the chute is aimed with the quick stick control alongside a one-hand interlock.

Common questions

Is the steering automatic like the smaller HD models? No, this one uses power steering operated with triggers.
