Toro Launches First Full-Size 24-Inch Two-Stage Snow Blower

This fall, Toro, America’s #1 Snow Blower Brand*, is introducing its first full-size, 24-inch two-stage snow blower. The 24-inch Power Max® HD leads a series of four upgraded two-stage models, bringing a massive 14-inch auger and heavy-duty frame into a popular residential size.  It delivers the full-size performance homeowners expect from a Toro Power Max HD in a compact footprint built for tighter storage.

“Our research is clear: homeowners want to finish snow removal faster,” said Matt Wickstrom, product marketing manager at Toro.  "We built the entire Power Max HD series around that goal, so operators get out, get it done, and get back inside, with no headaches along the way.”

The fully upgraded Power Max HD series includes a 24-inch, 28-inch, 30-inch and 32-inch model. Each incorporates new high-quality design components to ensure operators can begin clearing snow quickly and more efficiently.

• All-Metal Quick Stick®: An all-metal build replaces plastic with durable, weather-tough construction made to last winter after winter. With one hand, operators swing the chute 200 degrees in 0.4 seconds to point snow exactly where they want it. No cranking, no stopping.
• Never-Flat Tires: 16-inch Never-Flat tires use an airless design that grips snow and ice and never goes flat. There are no air checks and no downtime after seasonal storage, so operators start clearing snow immediately, season after season.
• Multi-Light LED System: A multi-light LED system pairs a panoramic headlight with a first-to-industry footwell light for 360-degree visibility. The headlight shines twice as bright as the previous system to light the way ahead, while the footwell light brightens every step below, increasing visibility.

The new Power Max HD series comes standard with heavy-duty engineering, including a rugged frame, triggerless steering, self-propelled drive and a 14-inch auger/impeller across all sizes. Toro's exclusive Anti-Clog intake keeps wet, heavy snow circulating so you never have to stop moving to clear a clog. And at the core, commercial-grade hardened gears are 2X stronger^§ than shear pin designs, giving the series the toughest powertrain in its class^§, built to work, not break, so homeowners never stop mid-job to replace a broken pin in the cold.

The upgraded Power Max HD series is expected to begin shipping this fall and will be available at Lowe’s, Ace Hardware and authorized Toro dealers. For more information, visit Toro.com.
