Snow Snow blower power shute

[marvindmartien]

Princess Auto has a new linear motor for $75.00 and a momentary toggle switch for $5.00. I had installed a used power window motor to rotate my shute but could not find a cheap linear motor to raise and lower it.

Linear motors are not usually real cheap because they have a screw mechanism in them. I leave my chute fixed but in the wind ocasionally it may be nice to raise or lower it.
