Wheelhorse#1 1,898 #452 Posted February 3 The ole 1973 12 auto did great.Need chains though as I couldn't do much with 1”1/2 of ice with 7” of snow. Once the sun worked it’s magic I was able to get down to pavement and then there was no issues moving big chunks of snow and ice . wish I took a before and after pic. The county should put me on payroll. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

c-series don 11,306 #454 Posted February 4 @Ed Kennell I didn’t need one when I was young either! Winter of 1984-85 when I was 14 with my Work Horse. My parents got me the plow for Christmas that year. Note the red hat, it’s an insulated winter genuine Wheel Horse hat! I wish I still had it. 5 7 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pfrederi 19,844 #455 Posted February 7 Got bundled up to walk down to the barn in the back ground. Driveway down has significant drifting./ Already feels hard. Will have to use the blower but wind continues tomorrow so may wait until Monday. It is 15 degrees in the shop where she is parked.... 3 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nylyon-(Admin) 8,754 #456 Posted 4 hours ago Ugh, here we go again, so glad I hooked up the blower this year. I’m in the 12+ this round, and we still have a foot on the ground. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
c-series don 11,306 #457 Posted 4 hours ago Blizzard warning and possibly up to 20” of snow forecasted for the east end of Long Island! Most are saying 10”-16” Yesterday at this time they were saying 1”-3” maybe 2”-4”, that changed right after lunchtime. Definitely going to be time for the two stage blower. Today is prep day for everything around the house and making sure we are ready. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

peter lena 9,748 #462 Posted 1 hour ago @Keith Cochrane nice looking unit there , notice the handle end of your auger movement ? years back , took a threaded DIE NUT and added threading for a smooth screw on knob ? local h/w store makes the handling easier with mittens / gloves . also added a SNOW SLIDER , VINYL gasket , with PAM food spray , for very slick easy movement , just measured base area fit , and cut to match , just a suggestion , always snooping around to improve something , happy snow blowing . pete 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
My_horse 84 #464 Posted 19 minutes ago Picked up some shear bolts for the impeller fan on my Massey Ferguson blower. $5 something a piece from the Kubota dealer vs $9 something each from AGCO. Same blower. The 314-8 is ready for cleanup duty. Have to get the blower ready tomorrow and change out that shear bolt. Then check all the houses I watch. Then I gotta burn the cardboard up before the storm. Tomorrow is going to be busy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
