A Winter Workhorse That’s Ready to Run!
Our DR PRO-28B Snow Blower is a feature-rich machine that gives you the power to blast through deep snow. Plug-in electric starting puts an end to hard starts—just run an extension cord, plug in, and you get sure-fire starts without the expense and battery maintenance that comes with a normal electric-starting engine. Plus, we’ve added commercial-level comforts to help you enjoy the work: heated hand grips, EZ-Turn™ steering for hassle-free 180º turns, an LED headlamp to light your way in the dark, and an integrated control panel that puts all operations within easy reach.
With a 28" clearing width and an 8-speed transmission (6 forward speeds and 2 reverse), the PRO-28B is up to any job. Our OHV engine (8.5 HP, 302cc) is designed for cold weather conditions and will keep working as long as you do. Big 15” tires provide reliable traction. This snow blower is built to last!
Plug-in Electric Start
Using a standard 3-prong extension cord, plug in, push a button, and you're up and running! There is no battery that requires charging or maintenance. Recoil backup, with compression-release, makes for easy pull starts when you're away from a power source.
DR OHV Engine
This cold-weather engine (8.5HP, 302cc) is designed especially for extreme conditions and has the muscle to power through deep or wet snow.
EZ-Turn™ Steering
When you initiate a turn, the two axle shafts are free to drive independently and go wherever you guide the machine. The result is the ability to make tight, 180° turns, without wrestling the machine.
Integrated Control Panel
Controls for all functions are right at your fingertips: gear shift, auger and drive hand levers (once transmission is engaged, the auger control locks in so you can operate with right hand only), chute rotation/deflection, heated handwarmers, and LED headlight.
Snow Tires
15” x 6.5” pneumatic tires provide positive traction, even in icy conditions.
Headlight
LED headlight illuminates your path for early morning or night time operation.
Friction Disc Transmission
Simple but effect drive system transfers power to the drive wheels via a rubberized friction disc. Easy to maintain and easily accessible.
2-Stage for Efficient Snow Removal
The serrated auger breaks up ice and compacted snow. Our Heavy-duty steel impeller, backed by a LIFETIME warranty (12” in diameter and constructed of 10-gauge steel) draws the loosened material up and out the chute. This 2-stage system creates a high-speed wind channel that throws snow up to 45 feet away!
Snow Stick (included)
Onboard snow stick for quick and safe clearing of ice or other clogs.

Received snowblower, have yet to use it in the snow!
Delivery was great, opting for the lift gate service paid off. Had no problem with assembly.

Review
Well, maybe it’s just me I don’t normally give reviews cause I figure the company should review themselves and do what’s right for the customer. In this particular case I gave it a four star because I felt that the instructions could’ve been a little bit more explicit mind you I’m no dummy but probably like most people men anyway try to put something together before reading the instructions so I did that and then I read the instructions and then I read them again and again and I just never was really clear where some of the cables should have went then I did the trial and error approach I think if you’re building these on an assembly line, it would probably take all of 30 seconds to go ahead and connect some of the cables just saying as far as the way it works it works like a snowblower. I bought this for my son-in-law cause I’m too old to shovel and I just don’t have to do it anymore so I hope this helps somebody out there. It’s not meant to be a gripe review but like I said, the instruction could be better.
