Friction Wheel Repair Original Message Dec 9, 2007 8:42 pm
I spent about 2 hours clearing a couple of long driveways on Saturday. They had about 50cm ( 20" ) of slightly crunchy snow so there was a lot of low gear work. I noticed when I was backing the blower under power up the ramp of the trailer that the wheels weren't turning so I have a hunch the rubber on the friction wheel is just about gone.
Is there anything that can be done other than replacing the whole mechanism? It would be nice if I could scrape of the old worn rubber and glue a new piece on.
