However, commercial snow removal presents an entirely different level of abuse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eUnlike homeowners who clear the same driveway every storm, commercial operators spend countless hours clearing unfamiliar properties where hidden obstacles are simply part of the job. Frozen gravel, rocks, landscape edging, curbs, manhole covers, uneven pavement, and other concealed hazards can place tremendous loads on an impeller.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eOver years of commercial use, even conventional steel impellers can eventually bend after repeated impacts. Many contractors have removed bent impellers, heated them with a torch, and hammered them back into shape just to finish the season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eWe set out to engineer an impeller capable of handling these demanding conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eRather than simply making the impeller heavier, we redesigned its entire support structure. The Commercial HD Impeller features a full square backplate that ties all four blades together, helping distribute impact loads across the entire impeller rather than concentrating stress through a traditional cross-style support.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eAdditional reinforcement has been added behind the outer portion of each blade where bending forces are greatest, while wider structural gussets provide increased support between the blades and center hub. These improvements create a significantly stronger impeller that is better equipped to withstand the punishment of commercial snow removal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eAt 14.2 pounds, the Commercial HD Impeller also carries approximately 3 pounds more rotating mass than our standard 4-Blade Steel Impeller. The additional rotational inertia helps the impeller maintain momentum through heavy, wet, packed, and icy snow, resulting in smoother operation, more consistent snow discharge, and improved throwing distance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eNo impeller is indestructible, but if you're looking for the strongest impeller we've ever built for the John Deere Quick Hitch platform, this is it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFits:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e• John Deere 47\" Quick Hitch Snow Blowers\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e• John Deere 54\" Quick Hitch Snow Blowers\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eOriginally equipped with:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e• OEM Plastic 3-Blade Impeller (AM138205)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e• 6-bolt service-plate gearbox\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes Not Fit:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e• John Deere Quick Hitch snow blowers originally equipped with the OEM steel 3-blade impeller.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e• Spanish-manufactured one-piece cast gearboxes without a removable service plate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eBecause many machines have been repaired or modified over the years, identifying the impeller currently installed is more reliable than using model year alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation Note\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eFor snow blowers equipped with the exposed chain-and-sprocket drive system, the auger and impeller assembly cannot be removed from the front until the rear drive components have been disassembled.
