Background
The Craftsman Gas Snow Thrower 247.886940 is a snow removal machine that is designed to clear snow from outdoor surfaces such as driveways and walkways. It is powered by unleaded gasoline and its engine is fueled by 5W-30 engine oil. The snow thrower has a 26-inch clearing width, making it suitable for handling moderate to heavy snowfall.
This product is manufactured by Modern Tool and Die (MTD) for Sears under the Craftsman brand. Its primary function is to pick up snow from the ground and throw it out of the way, thereby clearing a path. It accomplishes this through the use of rotating blades, which scoop up the snow, and an auger/impeller housing and chute assembly, which direct the snow out of the machine.
