I used the super 1872 and 450 snowblower to whittle the 30"+ of snow we got over the last 2 days. But 1st had to send 1/2 the day making new longer lift brackets and a manual lift for it. But those threads are elsewhere. the thing sticking up from the tractor with the orange flag is my improvised manual lift for the blower. I sheared the lift arm and end of the rockshaft off my tractor last snow running down the hill in the picks with my plow. I hit something immovable under the snow at speed. Also flags on the drift cutters so I can see them better.

What I saw when I opened the garage door.

1st look up the drive.

Most of these pics were taken BEFORE I found out that I was only turning the left side screw of the blower. I had a broken shear pin. Once I replaced that look out. Man will this thing throw it. It works so much better when the whole thing is turning.

Ginger is about the size of a lab. Just a little bit of snow.

This is the hill at the beginning of our neighborhood private road. 3-4/10 of a mile long. A neighbor cleaned this this am. I went over and open everything up some. I usually do most of the plowing.

Yeppers we sure did. I've still got a good bit of clearing for tomorrow left to do. They are calling for more snow midweek!

squatch,
Thats a lot of snow! Great pictures of the 1872 :ThumbsUp:

Thanks for the kind words. Spent most of today digging out and clearing more of the road. Neighbor scraped the road with his heavier JD2210 and 54" blade. I followed with the super and blower and disposed of it. Worked well like that to break up the ice layer underneath. I spread ashes from my woodstove on the hill for ice traction. Works great for traction and helps it melt when the sun comes out. Doesn't tear up the pavement like salt. Neighbor has a coal stove so we use his gritty ashes too. Can't wait to get my lift fixed. But I suspect we'll be done with snow by then.
