Had mine out for it's first "real" use over the weekend - worked great!
Also - broke my first sheap pin on the 2nd stage (hit a piece of lumber when clearing in front of the mailbox). Easy replacement - I used one of the 4 shear-pins mounted on the unit (that I found after buying 6 more at the dealer).
Now I "need" a cab.
My neighbors like my new snowblower too as their walks get cleared when I'm out.
