These were taken by my youngest daughter. I had to show her how to use the camera. But they came out okay. The EOD was like budda!

That was a good idea. All engines should be run once in a while.

Great snowthrower. I never put chains on a tire before. I guess you have to keep them on somehow, and the rubber tie down must be the way? I thought you tightened something on the chains themselves?

Hi AJace. The chains do have clips that fasten together. The tie downs just take up the slack and help them stay on better. The chains were on the blower when I bought it used last year. I have put them on the tractor though. It helps with my blower, but the newer models with the sno hogs should be good enough.

Jogo, Vangellis:

Nice work guys! Great action shots of those machines. Makes me envious. The storm barely made it here, and all we got was less than 2 inches.

Does anyone know why my pics are coming up horizontal on the screen, they were all vertical until I hit the post tab.

Thanks

Yikes. Thats snow. LOL Good pics.

Yates I'm not sure what caused the pics to come out vertical. When I post multiple pics, I put the cursor down to a new line before putting the URL in for each one.

Yates28....What year 1128 is that? It looks like you have a lot of blow back coming at you. It could simply be light snow and lots of wind. The reason I asked is that I have a 2003, and had the same trbl.. Ariens under warantee, retrofitted it with a small piece that screws onto the existing chute, and that stoped the blow back. It ws VERY bad when chute was turned to the right. Your photos look like you have chute turned to the right.

That's what snowblowing should look like.

It looks like he has a 2003 1128, and has the chute guide fixer.

jogo, it is just the wind, believe me it was much worse trying to blow in the other direction and I already have the ballle kit installed on the machine.
