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

My father in law went out last week to blow some 8 inches of snow off his drive.  sucked up the dailey paper into his blades!..  jammed it up something fierce!. My wife calls me at work, says a fellow he works with said to use a torch to burn it out.  I said bad idea. My pressure washer would probaly cut it out of there but i live 3 hours away. .  So i said to keep spraying water on it to soften it up.    Might of worked. He spent 4, count them, 4 hours to pick and scrape it out of there. Oh yeah, told him to keep his hands out of there also. I guess my mother in law let him have it almost the whole time he was working on it. Did i mention i live 3 hours away?

well now if you had been using one of those ultra high horsepower snappers or simplicities then you could have turned that paper into confetti...

Somehow I think you'll know just what to do to 'punish' Snowshoveler for hijacking your thread...

ROFLMAO...... 

Just remember......always 'prime the engine' and don't forget to give the 'cord'  a couple of good pulls to get the engine revved....
