SNAPPER LT12 MOWER SNOWBLOWER ATTACHMENT AUGER REPAIR?

I have a snapper LT12 with a snowblower attachment. One of the augers stopped working (right side when standing behind the snowblower. How do I repair this. The 2nd works just fine.

Probably just broke a shear bolt. My walk behind has one on each auger/side. They are there in case a rock or something gets wedged in the unit and breaks the shear bolt instead of major parts.
DONT use a regular bolt. Go to a snapper dealer or small engine shop, they more than likely have them. Get some spares to have on hand.
