That's the a few bladed fan that throws the snow straight from the chute on a two stage snow blower. See if you possibly can turn it by give. If not, it is probably frozen to the bottom with the drum it is stored in. There is usually a drain hole in the bottoom of the drum to prevent this but it is not always sufficient. Occasionally the impeller blade coasts for a stop with one of many blades straight down. This should make it easier to freeze.

2) How to repair: Drag or drive your snow blower into an area which you could turn on some warm to thaw out your snow blower. If you don't have this extravagance, use a hair clothes dryer. I've also seen people create a tent with a tarp in the snow blower and using a space heater to thaw out the ac unit. Be careful how close you setup the heater and that direction you point that. A space heater can melt or find a plastic tarp on terminate. You could just direct the place heater into the auger area and hope for the best. It doesn't usually take too much to melt the ice. Using a propane torch is the least desirable and the majority of unsafe option, as a great open flame is hazardous near any outdoor electrical power equipment. Just a little gas spilled nearby might be a potential disaster waiting to happen. You've read about it in the newspaper so don't even go there or you'll end up in the newspaper too. I can't explain how many times, back in the flooring buisingess, when we just dragged several frozen snow blowers into our warm shop prior to entering the "triage unit" and that was all that was had to cure the problem.

3) Preventing: Clean the snow off the snow blower and contained in the impeller /auger housing as soon as done snow blowing. Then ensure that none of the impeller blades is pointing straight down where the melted snowfall can puddle and frost nova.

4) Auger or wheel drive handle won't employ: This generally occurs with models with cables rather than linkage. The cable obtains moisture inside and freezes. If you don't have cables, follow the linkage to your pivot point that is actually frozen. This may involve removing an access covers. Thaw out cables or linkage using same method as frozen impeller; safely applied heat.

5) How to prevent: Remove both ends with the cable and apply low temperature or white lithium sauces. Work the cable in between the two to coat the comprehensive inner length. WD40 or any rust penetrant may do just fine but the grease is more permanent. PLEASE NOTE: If you have some sort of grease gun or use grease straight from the tube or tub on the snow blower, make sure it is LOW TEMPERATURE GREASE. It will say so on this container. If unsure, ask the sales person - if you possibly can find a knowledgeable one these days.
