I did that yesterday and adjusted the chute to go more up instead of horizontal which also allowed a larger volume of snow to fly out without hitting anything. Worked great and no clogs!

It takes a little to figure out, but I bet mine hasn’t plugged twice since I had it.
If it’s plugging, something isn’t right, and it’s usually the operator.

24" of snow in 24 hours in the U.P. of Michigan on April 17th. I had ALL my snow moving equipment working to clear it up. B7200 with loader and back blade, Ford LGT165 with blower and Polaris 500 4x4 w/plow. So much for having a Spring this year up here (as usual). *sigh*

I picked up a B2660 front blower for it cheap that needs some TLC, a few parts and the hydraulics. Hopefully I can have it ready to use for next winter.

I am afraid I am the source of all the snow we have been getting here in Michigan... I took my snowblower off about a month ago. :D

Using the box blade and loader is a pain in the rear... but I refuse to put the blower back on.:mad:

Its snowing,I know I should have never put the mower deck on :confused:

Good on the hayburners :) I talked to the Kid last week one of her brood mares twisted a gut and passed, bad thing is she has a filly on her. And bottle feeding her was an option, but she turned this little filly, Lilly, out with another little filly Aria born 2 days before and her mare Rainey. She sent me pictures of the 3 of them, and if someone didnt know better you would swear that Rainey had twins, both are feeding and mom accepted Lilly like it was her own. To see all 3 of them together they act like Mom and her daughters,,lol

Well we finally lucked out, very heavy rain which put a $hit kickin' on the snow we have left. Hopefully after waiting for weeks the delivery guys will be be able to come in and deliver our new sofa next week. Lol, I need a new place to sleep while watching the tube and yes that's what us old guys do.
