Lagersolut 743 #1 Posted August 7, 2015 (edited) Here's the tall chute I picked up from member jmdavid09 couple three weeks ago , didn't think it was going to happen because of the distance between us... but as luck would have it he was coming down from NY to pick up a tractor and we were able to get it done . We met in Pottstown and I was able top get a tall chute .Just finished up tonight, thought after 20 years of service I'd go over it and I put a little more money in it - new chain - new idler sprockets etc - if I see stuff wore after it's been in service for years I'd rather replace things now over January with 2 foot of snow in the D-way .The 10ft bulk #40 chain was a piece of cake and tightened things up nicelyFirst pic is the day it made it's trip from Syracuse to South central Pa via Pottstown Pa .

js5020 111 #2 Posted August 7, 2015 Nice looking blower,, I have one for the 16 Auto and it will relocate snow quite nicely. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shallowwatersailor 3,214 #4 Posted August 7, 2015 Good idea on going through it now. That auger looks great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ed Kennell 42,108 #5 Posted August 7, 2015 Nice...looks like it just came out of the box. IMO, the side extension plates are mounted incorrectly. The front bends should be parallel to each other to slice through the snow. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squonk 43,899 #6 Posted August 7, 2015 Ed's right about the plates. Since Jeremy sold that blower odds are we are going to get blasted with snow this year unless he has another one! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lagersolut 743 #7 Posted August 7, 2015 (edited) Good idea on going through it now. That auger looks great. I don't like wrenching in winter Nice...looks like it just came out of the box. IMO, the side extension plates are mounted incorrectly. The front bends should be parallel to each other to slice through the snow. Did some minor cosmetic work - turned extensions around .

Lagersolut 743 #8 Posted August 7, 2015 Ed's right about the plates. Since Jeremy sold that blower odds are we are going to get blasted with snow this year unless he has another one! He had two of them - couldn't be happier I was able to take one off his hands , getting a blower for the tractors was a thought for awhile and a tall chute was a big bonus .

Ed Kennell 42,108 #9 Posted August 7, 2015 Maybe we'll get to use the blowers this winter. We really didn't have any good blower worthy snows in southern York Co last year.I made a few mods to my tall chute this summer....closed the front of the lower chute, added remote deflector control, put on smaller drive pulley to speed up the auger and make belts easier to change, added the rubber paddles to close the gap at the center of the auger, added chains to the front wheels, mirrors on the cab, and 200# more wt on the rear. Can't wait to try it out ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
