ka9bxg Posted March 11, 2009 Posted March 11, 2009 Has anybody modified a snowblower for the deep snow? I have been getting a lot of big drifts this year 3 feet plus.Anybody that has tryed to move this deep snow knows what I am talking about. I would like to do something so I can get through the drifts. Lets here some ideas.Bob
Burntime Posted March 11, 2009 Posted March 11, 2009 I just use it as is... Sometimes the snow goes over the top and I just make a second path...I have kicked around the idea of making sides to widen the path but it would not clean down as well.
KSever Posted March 11, 2009 Posted March 11, 2009 Bob, Get that welder out and make a stacked double auger blower like the big trucks use. ;) Seriously, what about drift cutters on both sides.
dentwizz Posted March 11, 2009 Posted March 11, 2009 When I used walk behind units for a living, we would barge through 3-4 ft high drifts and it would flow over the top. The drift cutters make a difference, but you just go through and do it again to get the rest. Sometimes 3 passes.
MPH Posted March 11, 2009 Posted March 11, 2009 Had that problem the first year I had a 36 inch on the 725 that came with my B-112. contemplated stacking two of them up but haven't had that much snow since so it kinda fell off the thinking burner.:(
ka9bxg Posted March 13, 2009 Author Posted March 13, 2009 Drift cutters don't help. I have a set on now the snow this year has been very hard packed.Tractor with chains and weight does'nt do it.It is nice to have my home made cab on
