ri702bill 7,420 #2 Posted February 15 Nice matchup of the ground speed to the amount of snow the unit can process. Almost impossible to move that quantity of snow in single passes with a plow instead.... 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blasterdad 2,566 #4 Posted February 15 (edited) Nice rig! It's amazing what 12 hp will do in our little 's. Engineered to get it done & last forever with basic maintainance, sadly those days are gone, but for the lucky few of us that know this, we'll remain proud to own them & never part with them! Great videos, that guy across the street with the shovel must hate you, it made my day watching you actually having FUN & making a video while he's over there definitely NOT having fun.

My wife mentioned this yesterday when she watched the video, we both got a kick out of your comment, and that you noticed. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And I also installed a clutch spring and removed the failed piston tensioner. oiled/ lubed all moving parts and let the machine/gearing do the work . The knowledge and willing communication/ true passion of this forum has definitely helped me learn the CORRECT way to maintain and work these beautiful machines. Im really enjoying this. Thanks to all of you. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
