jcarter433 1 #1 Posted June 7, 2013 I recently purchased my 88 520 hc and it came with a ber vac 38" blower attachment. These seem to be less common and i dont know alot about it other than it seems to be incredibly well built and heavy duty. Thoughts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

John Sullivan 23 #4 Posted June 17, 2013 Hi Yes I have had one since 1989. Used for every snow storm in Vermont. About 3.5 hours use per snow storm. Performance with dual stage is excellent. Have performed yearly-monthly services only' Lot of use, all bearings, , shafts,augers, like new never replaces a part yet. Very rugged piece of equipment. Congratulations good find.

jcarter433 1 #5 Posted June 17, 2013 Thata great to gear john thank you. What do you do for maintenance on it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
John Sullivan 23 #6 Posted June 17, 2013 Wash wax in summer grease after actual use when needed check fluid for level and check all seals as needed. So far that is all that has been required of this h.d. unit Constantly check belt for alignment and wear. Minimal amount of labor,plenty of seat satisfaction' John Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
