Our take on the Cub Cadet 28 in. 3X 3-Stage Gas Snow Blower with IntelliPower Technology

The Cub Cadet 3X is a three-stage gas snow blower with a 28-inch clearing width, built for large driveways and heavy, wet snow. Its third accelerator auger pulls snow in and pushes it out faster than a two-stage, and IntelliPower adjusts engine output to the load so the augers keep turning in deep drifts. It is heavier and thirstier than two-stage rivals, and the wheeled chassis needs more effort to steer than tracked machines. Owners rate its throwing distance and build, but some find the controls stiff and the machine hard to handle in tight spaces.

Questions and answers

How does the 3X differ from a two-stage snow blower?
A third accelerator auger pulls snow in and feeds it to the impeller, which speeds up clearing and throwing in deep or wet snow. Two-stage machines rely on a single auger and can clog more easily in heavy drifts.
Is it good for a long gravel driveway?
Yes, the self-propelled wheels and wide 28-inch path suit long driveways. On gravel, adjust the skid shoes so the auger housing rides above the stones.
What does IntelliPower actually do?
It adjusts engine output to the load on the augers, so the machine keeps clearing when snow gets deep instead of bogging down. You still control speed and chute direction yourself.
Can I operate it with one hand?
No. It is not designed for single-handed operation, and both hands are needed on the drive and auger controls.
Does it need regular maintenance?
Yes. As a gas machine it needs fuel, oil changes, spark plug checks and off-season storage, plus shear pin and belt checks after heavy use.
Is it easy to store?
It is a large, wide machine, so it needs a good amount of garage or shed space. Folding handles help but do not shrink the footprint much.
Where is the Cub Cadet 28 in. 3X 3-Stage Gas Snow Blower with IntelliPower Technology cheapest?
At Tractor Supply Co, for $1,799.99, as of our latest check.
