Hazard

The blade may not stop when the blade brake control is applied, resulting in continued blade movement. The potential for injury exists if consumers make contact with the rotary blade.

Remedy

Consumers should stop using these snow throwers immediately and return them to a local Ariens dealer for a free inspection and, if needed, repair. To access the serial numbers for the units affected, check the Ariens website: www.ariens.com/safety_recall
