ri702bill 9,462 #2 Posted February 15, 2024 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 3,044 #4 Posted February 15, 2024 (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
