50 degrees F outside today. Still lots of snow out in the back where the wife keeps her horse trailer. Perfect weather to do a little snowblowing with the new machine
Sweatshirt and a ball cap. Wouldn't it be nice if after every snowstorm it would warm up so that you could go out and do the snow removal in relative comfort 
Here's a little video of today's action

One thing I noticed today was that there is a large hole where the optional hydraulic chute rotator pivots. The problem is I don't have the hyd rotator and this hole penetrates into the impeller housing. So, when the blower is running snow pumps out of this hole like a nozzle onto the back of the blower, tractor, and me.
Near the end of the vid you can see what I'm talking about.
A bolt and a couple of fender washers fixed it. Why the dealer didn't take care of this I don't know.
