Finding the Model and Serial Numbers on a Craftsman Two-Stage Snow Blower. One of the most common locations of the model and serial number on a Craftsman snow blower is on the back of the machine. Stand behind the unit and lean down - you should be able to see the ID tag underneath the handles, in between the two wheels. On all Husqvarna-made machines, the first 6 digits of the serial number identify the build date in the sequence of MMDDYY. Husqvarna also makes Poulan Pro, Jonsered, and some Craftsman snow blowers, among others. Look for the distinctive snow box with slanted corners (or 5-sided face when viewed from the front).
