As has been stated….”it’s traction that you need!” If you’re on grass you’ll need to get the scraper bar up by lowering the skids. Mine is set at around 2” above the skids. If you’re get some chains on that machine I think you will find it does very well. -

I’ll be damned…..I was checking out that website and realized it was a local phone number for me. Turns out that they are literally a 5min drive from my house. Guess I’ll have to swing down have a look in person -

hi horseman with no horse, as stated in the many replies to your original post, you need chains, period. since the money tree is not blossoming for you perhaps you could find someone in your area that might have a set of chains. then maybe you can barter for them. just a thought. -

i have little shoes that came with the blower in place of the cast wheels, im glad to see all the useful responses, you guys are always so helpful. chains it is. i thought i had a decent amount of weight but i still might try to add more. -
The tension washers can be eliminated with Matt's foot control as you don't want any tension whatsoever. I used Teflon because I have the material here and punch them out. Nylon would be basically the same function. No lube should be needed.

You get the chains we'll school on the many ways to properly install them. Jim S has already got you started. -

The one thing that I don't like about snow blowers is that it is usually cold out when you need to use them. -

You are missing the steel wheel that goes on the blower is there one missing on the other side also. That is going to make it harder to shove the blower ahead if it is down. -
Yes, that is exactly what you should do. After the kerosene or diesel flush, I also filled with elcheapo oil, ran it for a couple hours and then drained and filled with good oil.

Gotta get all you us ole timers on Karl's emergency call list. Never know when you might climb up in your tree stand and forget to come home.
-
could you rinse out with kerosene before switching oils? Or would that mess things up? My very first hydro years ago had ATF in it, I just drained it out and put 10w30 in it, seemed to do just find.

Thanks Randy great news ... I'm still gonna put him on report for going AOL & chew his rear for making us worry! Don't worry not gonna send him to Captain's mast. May confine him to a computer & extra duty with this day in history posts tho...

Thank you Cleat. Pretty much what I have done but nylon washers. Will look for Teflon ones. One of what i believe to be the tension washer was cracked. Was wondering if one should use a wave or belleville washer. I belive it was a belleville that was OEM. One last question to lubricate the moving parts or not? Maybe some sort of dry graphite? I think I read in a manual no lubricant.
