Years of design and development have allowed the Belarusian company “Lynx” to create high-quality snow blowers that best suit our latitude and the Russian buyer. The low cost makes the company's products even more attractive and affordable. Snow removal equipment of this brand is easy to use and maintain, simple in design and ergonomic.
The components and working mechanisms of the Lynx snow blowers are designed specifically to work in the harsh conditions of Russian winters.
The Lynx company is a young production in Belarus that has concentrated all its efforts on producing high-quality, but budget-friendly garden tools for the domestic user. A special climate, severe frosts and high humidity require special equipment that will not be inferior to expensive foreign brands. With this idea, designers and constructors produced a series of Lynx snow blowers.
Description
Lynx snow blowers are products manufactured by NIKKEY (PRC), which has located its production sites throughout Western and Eastern Europe. In particular, enterprises that assemble gardening and construction equipment under the Lynx brand are located in Belarus. Very little time has passed since the founding of the Lynx brand, but the Belarusian partner has already released and successfully presented to the world community:
- self-propelled snow removal equipment “Lynx”;
- lawn mowers “Lynx”;
- chainsaws, etc.

Maintenance, main faults and their solutions
In order for Lynx snow blowers of any model to be durable and serviceable, you must handle the equipment correctly. In the instructions for use you will find basic rules and step-by-step guidance on how to assemble and maintain the snow blower, and how to use it correctly.
For example, the manufacturer himself recommends using high-quality pure gasoline, the octane number of which is not lower than 92. The most suitable brand is AI-92 fuel. Well-selected gasoline is the key to easy and smooth operation of a snow blower without frequent breakdowns and failures.
In reviews you can often find that users encounter some difficulties at the beginning and while working with Lynx snow blowers. In the user manual, the manufacturer described the most common malfunctions that the owner of snow removal equipment may encounter. Some of them:
- If your engine does not start, you should check the presence, level and quality of gasoline in the fuel tank. Also, the reason may be the lack of a spark in the spark plugs or their breakdown. A possible option is also wear on the piston group, or an incorrectly installed throttle.
- If the snow blower does not remove snow, there may be a problem with the V-belt or shear bolt; The clutch may be heavily clogged with snow or debris.

Snowplow Lynx - design features
Unlike most modern snow blowers, the Lynx snow blower has a fairly simple design. Thanks to this, even a beginner who has no experience in operating and maintaining this type of equipment can repair the main mechanisms of a snow blower. The snow blower device consists of the following elements:
- motor – most Lynx snowplows are equipped with 4-stroke engines that can easily withstand even frosts down to -30 °C. Such motors are not equipped with air filters, which greatly simplifies their operation and maintenance. To start engines, Lynx household snow blowers are equipped with manual starters, and professional-class machines are equipped with electric starter mechanisms;
- transmission – inexpensive snow blowers for domestic use are equipped with a transmission with only one speed. More expensive models of Lynx snow blowers are equipped with manual transmissions with several speeds or CVT boxes;
- gearbox - this element serves to transmit rotational force from the motor to the auger mechanism of the snow blower. Lynx snowplows are equipped with reinforced gearboxes made of durable steel alloys, protected from corrosion and accidental impacts;
- auger mechanism – snow removal equipment manufactured by Lynx is equipped with serrated or smooth augers. At the same time, almost all snow blowers are equipped with a one-stage snow collection system. In order not to damage the surface of the local area, snow blower buckets are equipped with protective rubber strips;
- tires and wheels – for better stability on slippery surfaces, Lynx snow blowers are equipped with powerful wide wheels. Tires can have a V-shaped or X-shaped tread pattern. Regardless of the pattern shape, all tires provide good cross-country ability for the snow blower in difficult operating conditions.
Thanks to the well-thought-out design of the Lynx snow blower, it can easily withstand use in difficult conditions. The spare parts for each snow blower are highly resistant to wear and do not require frequent replacement.

A few words about engines
The Lynx snow blower is most often equipped with a gasoline engine. This option is most preferable for the average client. Which is understandable. Indeed, in case of repair, spare parts for such a motor are easier and cheaper to find. There is something like a power gradation:
- Electric motors.
- Gasoline engines.
- Diesel engines.
Gasoline snow blowers are known for being more powerful than electric ones, but weaker than diesel ones. That is, this is the golden mean. The main fuel for these cars is 92nd gasoline. The vast majority of gasoline snow blowers are equipped with an electric starter, which helps the engine start instantly, even if there is a serious minus outside. If there is an electric starter, then it can work in two scenarios: from a 220 Volt network, or from a battery built into the snow blower.

A special climate, severe frosts and high humidity require special equipment that will not be inferior to expensive foreign brands.

Focus on augers
Of course, manufacturers of Lynx devices and designers devote a large amount of time to augers. This part is the first to come into contact with the snow cover and, oddly enough, it also requires repair more often. The fact is that when foreign objects get into the augers, the shear bolts are often damaged.
Augers are aggressive blades whose task is to crack the edge of the snow crust or simply shovel loose snow deep into the machine. Next, this mass will enter the rotary impeller and fly out through the chute outward, away from the machine. It depends on which augers are installed on the machine how well it can pass through difficult areas with snowdrifts and wet snow. If the augers themselves act as a rotor and throw the snow to the side even at the stage of its destruction, then such a machine is cheaper, but most likely removes snow from the path less thoroughly.
Augers can be metal or rubber. Lynx snow removal equipment is equipped with these two options. Snow removal equipment with a rubber auger moves along the base under the snow with gentle movements. This is a great option if you need to clear snow from your ceramic garden path.
What you need to know about the transmission?
Depending on the specific set of the Lynx brand machine, a snow blower can either have a full-fledged transmission with several speeds, or be completely unable to switch them. Each option is good in its own way: if you are going to deal with a huge snowdrift, then it is much wiser to move the walk-behind tractor forward with your hands, rather than setting it at some fixed speed. At the same time, the absence of a transmission can increase the operating time in a large space that just needs to be cleared of loose snow.
The best professional snow blowers
Hyundai's heavy 135 kg tracked snow blower can go anywhere - thanks to its powerful 383 cc engine and tracks. The transmission has 6 forward speeds and two reverse, the track drive is differential with the possibility of locking. Well, the update to the Hyundai snow blower lineup definitely turned out to be interesting.
All controls are concentrated on a common panel, raised right under the handles: it’s convenient when everything is at hand. On the left handle, in addition to the usual drive control lever, there is also a differential lock lever, and next to the handle is a knob for adjusting the direction of snow ejection. The ejection range can also be adjusted on the go, either with your left or right hand: the corresponding lever is located in the center of the panel. Well, it’s more convenient to change speeds with the right one. A wide LED headlight is also built into the control panel trim, and the steering wheel grips are heated. Both the light and heating are also turned on on the panel.
The width of the gripping strip is 76.4 cm, the depth is no more than 54 cm. The proprietary auger mechanism copes well with both crust and wet snow, while loose snow is not a problem for it at all. The auger body can be moved using a pedal, without the need to stop and unscrew frozen nuts with wrenches.
