Product Description
The Ventrac Model KX523 Snow Blower is designed for the sole purpose of blowing snow. It is a powerful,
high capacity, two stage snow blower that moves large amounts of snow quickly.
The snow blower’s large 16” (40.6 cm) auger funnels the snow into the high speed fan which throws the
snow up to 40 feet (12.2 m) away from the operation area.
The discharge chute is hydraulically controlled. The operator controls the direction of the discharge from
the operator’s seat of the power unit.
An optional 12 volt actuator kit (70.8025) can be purchased to allow the operator to control the throw dis-
tance of the snow blower from the operator’s seat of the power unit.
For areas with heavy snowfall, an optional deep snow (top auger) kit (70.8072) is available. The deep snow
kit mounts a small auger above the main auger for effective removal of deeper snow.
