so my really nice Super Vl Snowblower starts right up and is easy to push
(tipo a mano pneumatico power wheels)
and my old beat up similar gas Sonola Snowblower (the one i loan to the neighbors)
needs a lot of pushing and coaxing to sound good
and my new mid-sized 40 bass Bravo Electric SnoJoe can run right up the
long ramp to my back door and toss everything over the railing with ease
and my little 12 bass Accordiana electric Snow Broom makes doing the front steps for the Mailman easy

Weather getting to you there? 60 degrees here and sunny in Myrtle Beach. Although it is supposed to go down to
freezing at night tomorrow. If it ever snows there will be a panic here.. The town doesn't own any snowplows and will have to hire farmers with tractors or rednecks with plows on their pickups...It actually did snow a few years ago - about 1/4 inch that evaporated by 11 AM. They closed the schools, the government and most shopping centers. Dozens of vehicle accidents. Kinda comical really..

My guess this is some sort of "2-stage" blower.

I just finished clearing my drive with my Ariens blower that I bought 35 years ago. It still does a nice job just like when it was new. We had a good 8 inches here in Medina County.

Well, naturally Ariens, the Super6 Gola of snowblowers are made in Brillion, Wisconsin so it’s not surprising they have handmade reeds.
 
ahh.. my lowly (pre-made in China) Techumseh Snow King MTD
keeps choking up as the reeds frosts up and catch like on the Accordiana

Yeah, you’re probably got one of those early Klebtechumseh models with the bad glue.
 
It's too warm in Texas for snowblowers so the reeds all came loose in mine.

With this new global warming thing I only used mine once this year. Fortunately I had stored it on its side so the leathers wouldn’t curl up.
