Snow Blower Handling

SHARE

Some snow blowers have small compact tractor segments and engines.  They are lower to the ground.  How they are structured over the wheels to some extent ascertains how they will manage and dig into snow.
Width of handles and height of the handles tends to make a big difference.

How frequently will you turn the snow blower as you make passes up and down a drive way?  If it's long and narrow then not many.  If it's short and broad then many more.  Think about all the areas you'll clear and how much turning you'll be performing and factor that into your concern.  Making a moving turn is quite easy but making a U turn may demand raising up on the handles to move the wheels around.  If you have difficulty raising the snow blower for this kind of turn then make a driving turn in a somewhat larger area to stay away from lifting.  You might have clear a small area at the end of your first pass to make a rotating area for yourself.  That's simple, quick to do and as soon as you learn to do a operating turn most devices are easy to manage.



Turning can be helped by wheel locks and differentials but frequently no matter how simple your snow blower is to turn what's to the edges usually restricts easy turning.  For example if you start on one side of the driveway and make passes to the middle then turning into the middle is turning into snow, probably high snow.  No matter what you have for functions turning into snow is not assisted by wheel features.  For some places it might be extra suitable to have both wheels locked for more drive into drifts and EOD.  If you have a wheel lock differential then you'll have to hand change the wheel locking pin every time you want to turn easy versus have both turning for more grasp. People with pin lock fixed it one way and never modify it.

Your area to clear will identify which setting is superior for you and most likely be left there compromising the easy of the other setting as it too undesirable to modify during clearing. Having both wheels turn together for greater traction is usually more helpful than having the wheels set for simple turning. Eventually it depends on your own physical situation and the circumstances for your clearing area.





Husqvarna 924HV 24-Inch 208cc SnowKing Gas Powered Two Stage Snow Thrower With Electric Start


This snow blower is enormous. Gets through anything you've put it through. No trouble cleaning up the end of the driveway right after the road plows have gone by. You can use this to do your whole road and more. The electric start operates well and the pull start is much simpler then most chainsaws. The settings take a little to get used to but once you are used to them they turn out to be like second nature.
