Got my Ariens Compact 24 yesterday. Started it up today. It may be a bit quieter than my 8526, but it is easier to manuver with the Auto Turn capability. It also weights about 70 lbs less than my old machine. I won't have to manhandle this one so much. I've already taken the advice given on this forum and replaced the spark plug with the NGK BPR6ES.
My wife listed the old machine on FB marketplace. I went upstairs for about 10 minutes and when I came down, she said 'It's sold'. I said 'yeah, right'. She said it really is. Price agreed on and the guy is coming tonight. Other folks are interested also.
Here is a picture of both machines.
