Snowblower tip

[DoubleT 0]

Several years ago I only had a snow shovel, and was trying to move snow in the spring. The wet stuff kept sticking to my shovel and made a miserable job worse. So I sprayed the shovel with silicone spray. That made the job even worse yet. The snow would then slide off the side of the shovel before I had the chance to toss it! I now spray the snow blower auger, impeller, box and chute with it just to make it more efficient. May even start spraying the outside this winter to see if it'll help get the snow off the machine before bringing it back in the garage. Neat stuff! It will probably help prevent those clogging problems many seem to have. I recommend spraying awhile before needing the blower to give time for the silicone to dry.

For someone with a blade and a paved drive, could you spray the whole driveway, to make it easier to push the snow off?

Thanks for the heads-up. Do you think if I sprayed this on my drive the snow would slide down the hill? :)

Alright wise guys! :o) I could suggest something like teflon or polyvinylchloride sheeting over your drive. Or even running heat tubes under the paving like is used in many slab floors here. Of course then you wouldn't get to spend as much time on your fine tractors. Incidently, I would've had the chance to use mine today if it was operational yet. We got several inches of that @#$% stuff today. Instead I had to resort to a 966 Cat loader. Mowed my overgrown lawn with it while I was at it :o) Any suggestions on fitting a 3406-B to a Big Ten?
