What does BTDTHTTS stand for? BTDTHTTS stands for "Been There, Done That, Have the T-Shirt" ; How to abbreviate "Been There, Done That, Have the T-Shirt"?

I dont use the blower (walk behind Ariens Platinum) when the snow is wet and sloppy! The blade and FEL gets it done!
X2 on this... picking right tool for the right job is always preferred and pushing stuff past mfg spec's usually not a good thing.

My blower manual says if snow wet run full 1,000 rpm at pto and take 1/3 passes at a time or risk plugging/ overloading / damage.

Push them too hard and they could plug or worse break. i don't like to abuse or wreck my stuff but luckly for snow we are usually most dry and fluffy. Would hate to have to move Buffalo type snow regularly.

I usually find it in the kitchen cabinet. My wife can't understand why she finds it in the garage.

Never used any coating. Not that a coating doesn’t work.
