Lane Ranger 10,847 #301 Posted December 10, 2014 (edited) I did manage to put the wheel weights on my 314 -8 for added traction. I may end up putting on the rubber tire chains too before it's all over this winter! Edited December 10, 2014 by Lane Ranger 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RMCIII 838 #302 Posted December 10, 2014 Lane- looking good. I think I need to find me some front weights. I think it would definately help the steering when the blower is down. Rob 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AMC RULES 37,102 #311 Posted January 2, 2015 I've been thinking I should set up one more plow rig... just to make sure we don't see snow this year. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Desko 579 #312 Posted January 2, 2015 No id like to see some snow just so i have an excuse to use the blower but not like last year where i was out there as it was falling 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JERSEYHAWG / Glenn 4,497 #313 Posted January 2, 2015 I've been thinking I should set up one more plow rig... just to make sure we don't see snow this year. my brother came over the other day to help me hook up the plow on the jeep. So now, I have 2 plows and 3 snow blowers. I better get sun tan oil, cause that killed it for the snow. I have the 520 right at the garage door, a foot back, ready for battle. My main battle tank,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,yawn. Lol Glenn 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RMCIII 838 #314 Posted January 2, 2015 Crazy year this year is all I can say... Not really wanting to see as much as we did last year, but at the same time, it is winter and Cleveland is expecting temps in the 40's and 50's over the next couple days. Then it does dip down into the teens, but then right back up into the high 30's If January is this light, it will make it for a very short winter. To recap - Cleveland has seen no snow that has amounted to anything on the ground. < At least where I am. Buffalo had the worst storm in years in November. Here we are Jan. 2nd and expecting temps in the 40's and 50's through the weekend. SO, does this mean that winter will be like the spring saying? In like a lamb out like a lion?

Ben Drinkin 9 #317 Posted January 5, 2015 Hello to the board, I'm new to the board but have been watching for a few months now. Last summer I acquired a 416-8 Toro Wheel Horse with a recycler mowing deck, two stage snow blower and rototiller attachment. I usually plow snow with my pickup truck but I had to try the snowblower out. So here is a short video of me and the Toro. Hope you enjoy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iZTM640L608 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
