I have a 9" auger that takes 3 blades, part number LPD3-PB, and I can't find these blades anywhere. Does anyone know of possible source for these blades?

I have the 2 blade 9" lazer also and they do not make them anymore. You have to send them out to get sharpened. There ia a guy in Ely I talked to yesterday he charges $15 shipped back to you. There is also someone in MI and NY that do this also.

I have been told d rock up in the cities has some... good luck finding some I have been looking also. Search search search as they have been discontinued for a few years.

I had/have one of those too. It was SM's attempt at making an auger with lazer blades that reopened holes about 10-12 years ago. They only sold them for a year or so and found the failure rate on the blades too high. At the time they traded anyone that had that one for any drill they made and actually chopped the kind you have into pieces to be sure they were gone. I still have mine and a set of new blades but the blades can last a long time or go bad on the first hole. Great auger when they worked but even if you find blades you're looking at about $45 and SM when in Big Lake highly recommended not wasting money on resharpening them because any small nick on the curved leading edge ruined them. I think you should do like I did and cut your losses and buy a new chipper drill,or lazer if you like them, for your head unit. You'll be big money ahead if you do. They were an awesome auger when they worked, they just never worked for long.

You see them on different websites for sale, I even thought of doing that with mine but my conscious wouldn't let me knowing the next guy would be going threw what you are. Did you buy it new?

I must compliment you for having character and not passing on some junk for a profit!

Check out red rock store to sharpen those kind of blades. Fast & cheap & does them them right. Info on thier HSOforum about the details.

Depending on how often you need to sharpen blades. It may be a better idea to buy a regular Lazer drill bottom.

There's a guy on the list of Craig in Lakeville that has 2 dull sets. I bought the 2 sharp sets from him. Also seen a set on the auction site in the package.

      All of those Polaris sleds from that era were notorious for flooding and leaking. I've still got a 2003 XCSP 600 Edge that my daughter rides. As you noted, you need to shut off the fuel in those situations.
    • SkunkedAgain
      Yes, but it could make for an amazing walleye opener.

      How old is your belt?   My old Polaris 4 wheeler with belt drive was bogging at mid range to top end last year.  Changed the belt and that problem went away.
    • JerkinLips
      Previous owner (22 years and 5,000 miles ago) said it was prone to flooding when sitting for a long time or trailering, so I shut the fuel off in both cases.   Primary is significantly worn.  I replaced several rollers and pins which helped.  I have two used clutches in much better condition that I could (and should) install.   It seems more like when I hit the throttle, but the bog could be from poor clutch shifting.  Will have to pay attention next time and inspect the clutches.  Thanks for the ideas.

      Nope, he beat me fair and square, all his.  This weather had been depressing. As it sits now we are looking at a later than normal ice out. I hate scrabbling with docks, lifts, boats right before opener. Also limits some pre opener crappie chances.

      In those years Polaris was known to put buna tipped needles in there sleds. They get a ring around the seat and don't seal shut. But if that would be the case your problem would be with the motor shut off and filling the crankcase with gas. If your plugs are brown that is were they should be. I wouldn't drop that needle down to the last grove. I would replace them before I did that. I have never had a carb with that setting. Have you looked at your clutches? They could be dirty or have a bad roller.  Does it bog as it's accelerating or when you hit the throttle?     
    • Mike89
      but if he really wants I can change the date..  
    • Wanderer
      As soon as I started reading mind went to needles and seats.  You might want to try just replacing those first?  I’ve only done that once before in my life but it made the difference.  A carb refresh in 8,000 miles seems reasonable.
    • Wanderer
      Good luck smurfy!  On getting drawn, I mean!   If it comes down to it, I know a guy that might be interested in a nice hide.
