Preparing for Big Stella

Recommended Posts

This so called Nor'easter was so anticlimactic here, maybe I actually did "skeer" ole Stella away with all the little red tractors biting at bit...ready to chew up and spit out some snow.

We got the condensed version Jeff.   One of the heaviest ever.  It was a challenge for 520 tall chute.  I had two clogs in an hour of throwing.   Then I switched to the 312 w/blade.

I'll say it again,   those rubber chains are amazing.

   I am glad I replaced those little 6" fronts with 8"ers.   They gave the plow a little more height which was a big help in stacking the snow.

We got all of an inch. Pretty disappointing.

I run the Onan at WOT and try to keep the forward motion up enough to keep the thrower full of snow.  The governor  got a real  workout .

 I got the clogs when I had to stop and back up for too long allowing the super saturated snow to freeze in the  chute.

Still snowing and drifting here.  Did some clean up today.

Got some mileage  on the big shoes today.   Too bad I don't have a set for my Buddy.
