You must have extra shear pins at your home for your snow blower. Order them now! Shear pins are designed to break and they do. Get an extra set and tape it right to the handlebar of your snow thrower.

I am not going to list the shear pins for the Chinese Snow Blowers. I have not found any of them available online. You will have to order from the manufacturer.

Removing and Replacing Shear Pins: Yes, you can do it!

Shear pins are designed to fail before your snowblower’s auger or gears if you hit a rock, chunk of ice, or another object while clearing snow. When this happens, you will have to replace your broken shear pin.  Most of the time when a shear pin breaks the two ends will break off and the rest of it will stay in the auger. You will have to rotate the auger until you find it and then push it out. Once in a while, it will shear so that you just can’t push it out with the new one. In that case, you need a pin punch. The pin punch has a flat end so you can drive the broken shear pin out without the pin sticking in the hole. (Don’t use a punch with a point. That can flare the end of the broken pin and then make it impossible to get out.) I’m not going to show you how. Watch both of these videos if you need more training.
