Ready to rock 'n roll! :)
I bought this snowblower last June as a demo model. When I went to Oslo area to pick it up I saw it was brand new. Not to bad... After some minor adjustment it fits the front hook-up.
There is no electric chute adjustment on the snowblower but if I will miss this it won't be to difficult to add it i guess.

Regards!
Edward

Flyfish That's a rugged looking snow blower. Must have been sitting in the showroom. I'd say your ready!

Thanks for the kind words gentlemen. Here's the fleet for this winters festivities. The Simplicity with the Subaru/Robin, and the Ford with the p/a plow and the Meteor blower have served me very well but this year I'm moving uptown with the Steiner........I'm lending the Simplicity to a friend for the winter and I will use the Ford no doubt but plan to handle the vast majority of this years snowfall comfortably out of the elements.

After a week of very cold temps and rain on my off days, today it is rain in the 60's and weather forecast for thanksgiving 6 to 10 inches of snow!!! Guess I will have to brave the rain and wind today and get the snowblower on the tractor. Tractor Tom nice setup, similar to mine but on green. Plow is at the welders getting a quick connect attached.

This is my just completed snow rig; 78" Meyer I got for $50 on eB*y 5 years ago and finally got around to media blasting, painting and using some ideas from TBN to mount in the bucket; finished it yesterday; first 8" wet snow today; worked well; if I'm happy with it, I'll add power angle pistons and a remote next year.

Pumpin' Slush

Good news is there was a chance to try the blower early in the season. Bad news is the 6" to 12" of snow that was being bandied about turned out to be about 3" or so of slush. It worked pretty well to shove the blower into the slush really fast. The chute wanted to grow closed using a slower approach.

Because of that there was some spillage of slush on the clean side of the blower. So it worked to blow fast in reverse, then scoop up the spilled slush with the loader while travelling to the other end of the lot and sweeping it into the unplowed part. The chute did need to be unclogged one time while doing two parking lots.

A bud sent me a one minute video he shot with his cell phone:
