Outdoor Power Equipment (Lawn Mowers, Snow Blowers, Chain Saws and more) Discussions

I have an Ariens 928 with a Techumseh Hmsk80-  I want to enhance its performance by slowing it down.  I want the engine to run at full speed for performance , but I want to go slower in first gear.  I here Honda are known to be able to creep and chew up ice.I'm trying to get my Ariens to to the same. I put a 25 lb weight on the bucket to hold it down. Now I need it to go slower. I read of you guys changing pulleys. Ware do you get these pulleys and different belt sizes. I want a smaller pulley for my drive and a slightly bigger one for the auger. Are all belts the same? Is ther anything special in a Snowblower belt other than size. If I change belt sizes I want to know what to look for in quality.

Conducting an analysis of snow throughput on a plastic vs. steel chute on a machine with 6.5" tires after applying the principles of quantum physics on a hydrostatic friction drive as it relates to the density of the snow accumulation at the EOD during a freak snowstorm in May that has not happened yet. You had to ask, did'nt you???

Simple me thought he's contemplating on whether to unbox his new snowblower or return it to the store.

Now you should know just how complicated a question that really is. Nations will be Born, Rise and Fall before every aspect of taking it out of his SUV could even be considered. There are so many trivial implications involved that even Einstein would have a headache sweating over all the details involved in such a monumental decision. Of course a whole new set of quantum variables would arise if returning it to the store were to be factored in.

The Mind Boggles!

Meanwhile the rest of us will be out happily blowing snow a mere 45 feet instead of the optimal 47.378965 feet.

This video is DavidNJ to the proverbial Nth degree!

That is frickkin hilarious.

That guy really sounds intelligent as if he really knows his stuff. 

Can't wait to see David's production of "Unboxing the Snowblower" in 1080p 3D HD in 9.1 Surround
