Being from Tx we dont get alot of snow or need a snowblower. Would like to see some pics of you guys using them and how good they work. How often do you need to use them, and what do you do with the wall of snow when it gets to high? Just wondering:D

I do not have any photographs I can show you but....

Here is a youtube vid of what I and my crew do everyday from when the snowfalls to when it goes away.

Sorry this is older, from 2007, but it is one of a few that have been released to the public for viewing.

The voice you hear, is mine.

For the testers....yeah

Not for me.

I start the day video-ing the starts, then separate each unit into it's own video, edit them with titles, then send them to our corporate office for review.

Then I do data entry the rest of the day. Inputting all the temperatures we monitor on the machines and any and all repairs needed and done.

Then if I get any free time, I take lunch. :)

I hardly ever get to leave the office

Wish i had pics of the one i sold. it was a 9ftx4ft blower powered by a MF 1155. The tracor had a V-8 Perkins rated at 145hp.

If i get my new unit hooked up. I'll try to take pics.

As far as how often I have to snowblow? Just when it snows or blows and makes drifts.:) Sorry, couldn't resist. We get between 8 to 10 ft of snowfall.

Last winter the boys from the mid-atlantic got record snowfall. I bet they got some good pics.:thumbsup:
