Features for the Ariens Platinum 30 SHOElevate to Platinum status! The Ariens Platinum SHO models combine more power with enhanced operating features — A larger 414cc engine, Super High Output (SHO) impeller, Quick-Turn chute, and handwarmers come standard. These models are ideal for clearing up to 16 inches of snowfall. - Ariens AX414cc Engine: More power than Deluxe models, plus equipped with a 120V electric start with recoil backup starting system.
- Super High-Output Impeller (SHO): A faster spinning impeller as a result of modified belts and pulleys allows you to clear snow faster and throw snow farther.
- Auto-Turn Steering: Automatically senses change in in direction as you turn. Power is then adjusted to the inside wheel, making turning much easier.
- Molded Friction Disk: Fewer overall parts, easier to service, and more robust shifting.
- Re-balanced Machine: The axle has been relocated on the frame to improve balance and performance of the Auto-Turn steering feature.
- Disc-O-Matic Drive System: Smoothly shifts into 6 forward speeds or two reverse speeds.
- Cast Iron Gear Case: Durable in extreme conditions, delivering ideal power to the auger system to churn and throw snow.
- Quick Turn Chute Control: Rotate the chute 200 degrees and adjust the discharge angle, both from a convenient location on the dashboard.
- Heated Handwarmers: Handwarmers are installed on the handles to keep your hands nice and toasty while you operate.
- Interlocking Controls: Allows the ability to lock both handles, so one hand can be free to adjust chute rotation as you move.
- 16" Snow Tread Tires: 16" x 4.8" directional snow tread tires provide necessary grip on hard packed snow.
