1983 Toro Power Shovel Anyone ever use or own one? Original Message Nov 26, 2010 10:57 am
I picked up this old 1983 Toro Power Shovel for dirt cheap. I found some info on the internet, took it apart to inspect/clean/adjust/lubricate. Put it all back together and gave it a test run. These things are incredible! We've had some serious heavy wet snow here recently. Not real big dumps. Maybe 3 to 4 inches at a time. Certainly deep and wet enough to be difficult to shovel. I bought this thing for clearing off our fairly large deck. Couldn't be happier with it's performance. Why Toro ever stop making these with the gas engine is beyond me. For it's diminutive size, and little 21cc two stroke engine, this thing can move a lot of snow.
