Characteristics of Hyundai snow blowers and their varieties

Hyundai snow blowers are available in various configurations, have different operating principles, and belong to different types. To choose the most suitable option for yourself, you need to familiarize yourself with the existing model range, understand the intricacies of each machine, and then make an informed decision.

In Russia, snow blowers are in great demand, since it is sometimes impossible to cope with all the snow that falls with the help of only one shovel. The Hyundai brand is one of the leaders in the industry, bringing snowblowers to the market with excellent performance at an affordable price.

There is plenty to choose from - the range is quite large. There are gasoline and electric vehicles, wheeled and tracked self-propelled snow blowers. All models are supplied in different configurations, with the exception of a few mandatory items.

The equipment is produced both for cleaning small areas and huge areas. All machines differ in power, which should be guided by when choosing the right device. Accordingly, snow blowers differ in cost: as a rule, the more expensive the car, the more powerful it is. However, one should not chase only the price - in this case, it is not an indicator, because both cheaper and more expensive Hyundai serve equally well.

As stated in the instructions, Hyundai snow removal equipment consists of the following components:

1. bracket for switching on (safety) of the engine;
2. operator panel;
3. handle for changing the direction of snow throw;
4. thumbs, clamps of the operator panel;
5. bottom frame;
6. wheels;
7. auger belt drive cover;
8. screw;
9. LED headlight;
10. snow discharge pipe;
11. throw distance deflector;
12. engine start button;
13. headlight switch button.

The instructions do not say which parts the snow blower is assembled from (for example, an auger drive belt or a friction ring).

The instructions also contain illustrations that clearly show how the assembled technical device should look like. The following is the assembly order, also illustrated.

First of all, Hyundai snow blowers are divided into gasoline models and devices with an electric motor. The first category includes S 7713-T, S 7066, S 1176, S 5556 and S6561. Such machines are more productive and cope well with trampled or wet snow. Easy to start up, even when the outside temperature reaches -30 degrees.

Electric motors are available in the S 400 and S 500 models. Their advantage is that they produce little noise. However, this does not mean that snow blowers with an electric motor are worse at their task. Absolutely not. It's just that the area that can be processed with this device at one time is much less.

Also, the lineup consists of tracked and wheeled models. Tracked units are suitable for those regions where the snow layer is high enough. Then the snow blower will not fall through and the maneuverability will remain.

Seven models of Hyundai snow blowers are presented on the official website. They are the most relevant today. Of course, outdated models are still used or resold too, but they are no longer in demand and popular.

Among the current models are two electric and five petrol. Each of them has its own advantages and disadvantages due to the structure and configuration of each individual machine. They differ both in price and in the area that can be processed with their help.

It is worth noting that each of the modern models is able to cope with any type of snow:

• icy snow;
• freshly fallen snow;
• crust;
• stale snow;
• ice.

This model is equipped with an electric motor. It has one gear - forward, but for most users this is enough. The width of the snow grip is 45 cm, the height is 25 cm. The body and the pipe for snow discharge are made of frost-resistant polymers with high strength. Even though plastic is used, the casing or pipe will be hard to damage.

The direction of snow throwing can be adjusted. The pipe rotation angle is 200 degrees. The low weight of the device allows even not very physically hardy people (for example, women or adolescents) to work with it. The design is equipped with an overheating protection system.

Of the minuses - there is no protective cover for the power cord, because of this it can get wet or get mechanical damage. The throw distance is not very large - from 1 to 10 m. According to reviews, another drawback is the poor location of the engine cooling hole. It is located directly above the wheel. Warm air from the engine enters the wheel. As a result, an ice crust forms and the wheel stops spinning.

The Hyundai S 500 model has more functionality than the previous one. Besides the fact that its engine is more powerful, the auger for capturing snow is rubber. Thanks to this, it is possible to remove the snow to the ground. According to the manufacturer, this same quality makes the S 500 snow blower ideal for clearing paving stones.

The snow discharge pipe is adjustable. The angle of rotation is 180 degrees. In this case, you can also adjust the angle of inclination within 70 degrees. The body and pipe for ejection of snow are made of polymer materials that can withstand temperatures down to -50 degrees. This model has larger wheels than the S 400, so it is easier to work with - it is more maneuverable.

The snow capture width is 46 cm, the height is up to 20 cm. The throwing distance varies depending on the density of the snow and can be from 3 m to 6 m. The weight of the model is 14.2 kg.

This snow blower belongs to the petrol models. It is worth noting that Hyundai gasoline vehicles compare favorably with their counterparts with increased power, low noise level and low fuel consumption. This model belongs to the latest generation of petrol representatives, so its engine resource is more than 2,000 hours.

The S 7713-T is equipped with a carburetor heating function, which ensures easy starting and trouble-free operation even at temperatures of -30 degrees. The augers of increased strength are used, allowing to work with any type of snow, whether it is freshly fallen or ice. The tracked structure and rigid frame make the snow blower virtually invulnerable to mechanical damage.

Both manual and electric starting systems are available. Engine power is 13 hp. with. There are two gears: one forward and one reverse. The model has a convenient auger for collecting snow, the width of which is 76.4 cm, and the height is 54 cm.At the same time, the recommended height of the snow cover for its collection should not exceed 20 cm.

Long throw distance (up to 15 m) is one of the significant advantages. It is possible to adjust the position of the snow chute. Machine weight - 135 kg.

Model S 7066 belongs to petrol wheel mechanisms. It is significantly inferior to the previous one both in power, and in width, and in the height of the auger, and in the range of snow throwing. But it does not weigh so much and is not so expensive.

The snow blower is equipped with a carburetor heating system. As in the previous case, this allows you to start it in frost down to -30 degrees. Also, for the convenience of work, there is a function for heating the handles. The width of the snow fence is 66 cm, the height of the auger is 51 cm.

The number of gears is significantly greater than that of previous models: five front and two back. Engine power is 7 hp. with. - not much, but quite enough for cleaning a medium-sized personal plot. Since fuel consumption is reduced, the built-in fuel tank also has a smaller volume - only 2 liters. The snow throwing distance and angle are mechanically adjusted from the control panel. The maximum throw range is 11 m. The weight of the apparatus is 86 kg.

This model features improved wheel drive and X-Trac tires. They are designed to provide improved traction of the snow blower with the surface, which allows you not to lose control over it, even in an area with ice. The gasoline engine is of the latest generation, so it consumes much less fuel.

Engine power - 11 HP with. This allows you to work over large areas without sacrificing productivity. The snow blower can be started either manually or with an electric starter. There are seven types of gears - two reverse and five forward. The snow capture width is 76 cm, the auger height is 51 cm.The throwing distance is maximum 11 m.

The Hyundai S 5556 snow blower belongs to the most popular models on the market. Having all the advantages of Hyundai gasoline devices, it has another advantage - light weight. For example, the S 5556 weighs only 57 kg. This makes it much easier to handle.

In this model, the emphasis is on maneuverability. For better grip, X-Trac tires are used. The auger is made of metal so that it can handle any type of snow. The pipe for throwing snow is also metal, equipped with a function of adjusting the direction and distance of throw.

There is no electrical start available here - only a recoil starter. However, according to the owners' reviews, in frost down to -30 degrees, the engine starts well from the second time. There are five gears: one reverse and 4 forward. The S 5556 is inferior to the previous model in terms of the presence of various functions to facilitate the work with equipment - there is no headlight or a heating system for the handle.

The Hyundai S 6561 unit is also one of the most demanded snow-removing equipment of the manufacturer, despite the fact that in many respects it is inferior to the previous model. The device has a relatively low power - only 6.5 liters. with. This will be enough to clear snow from an area of ​​200-250 square meters.

There are both manual and electric start. There are five gears: four of them are forward and one is reverse.Snow removal width is 61 cm, height - 51 cm. At the same time, it is possible to remove any type of snow, since the auger is made of metal. Tires provide traction. The snow throwing range can be up to 11 m. At the same time, the throwing chute can be adjusted. It, like the auger, is made of metal.

First of all, focus on the type of your site. Depending on what layer of snow falls in winter, choose a tracked or wheeled type.

Next, you need to decide which type of motor is more preferable for you - electric or gasoline. A review of reviews showed that gasoline ones are recognized as more convenient, but they are less environmentally friendly than electric ones. But you don't have to worry about how to stretch the power cord from the mains. So, gasoline snow blowers are more mobile.

Each of the models of snow blowers has an instruction manual. It tells in detail about the final build of a particular model, about the assembly procedure, precautions. There is also a section devoted to the analysis of fault situations and a complete algorithm of behavior for such cases is given. Among other things, the addresses of service centers located throughout Russia are indicated.
