Toro 824 Powershift
Original Message   Jan 23, 2019 12:51 pm
Anyone have one of these old units?  Mine works fine but the chute wants to self rotate while I am using it.  Any ideas what to do?

Bungee cord is worth a try!  This machine is old but its a commercial blower.  It has a gearbox and the auger housing has removable end plates.  The cool thing is the "Powershift"  the rear wheels can pivot rear ward which makes the front end very heavy for end of driveway.  Would be crazy expensive to repair.  What photo program do you use for posting?

I just have 2 tabs open, here and where ever I can find the pics on the net.  I used to use photobucket until they tried to steal everyones pics and charge you (after they deleted all your internet pics previously posted).  Some sites you can attach your own pictures from your computers picture files. 
Usually you can find schematics or "here's what I'm talking about" type pics on a search.  Right click on the pic you want and select "copy image location"  the mouse keeps it in itself.  Go back to your text area of your post and left click the 3rd icon from the right (it's supposed to be a landscape scene of a mountain, but it looks like the back of an envelope to me).  That will have a pop up url box, right click inside the blank and select "paste", it enters the posting the area.  Those old Toro's are very over engineered heavy weight workhorses for sure.

I would still need a photo sharing program to post my own pictures.
