GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)

English translation:auger

Tech/Engineering - Engineering (general) / Snow clearing equipment
German term or phrase: Fräswalze (Schneefräse)
On http://www.proz.com/?sp=h&id=272480 Fräser, Fräsgerät, Fräswalze (ref. Cornelsen/Girardet) are given as translations for rotary grinder. I'm looking for the correct term for the Fräswalze in a snow blower (Schneefräse). Cornelsen only gives rotary grinder, Ernst (Brandstetter) gives oscillating beater for "Fräswalze (Dungstreuer)", but as far as I can tell, snow blowers have an auger.

I'd appreciate any further information any one can offer.

Explanation:
"The latest model, the RPM-227, is a 2 stage twin auger type self contained heavy-duty snow blower." (see ref)

If you google for "snow blower" + auger you'll get all the confirmation you need.
