Re: (ET) Snow topped the blower, now what?



I'll second what Darryl said. In addition to doing a first pass with the blower raised, I've also found it useful to leave some snow in a little mound for the front wheels to ride up. That angles the tractor up so can chew at the top of the snow bank first and then work on down.

(From my days in NY... now in Virginia where don't really expect this much snow. I was almost regretting not having set myself up a tractor and snow thrower at our rental, but then our neighbor's relatives came up 'north' for the weekend just to experience the snow and they left their cars at the bottom of the driveway, so couldn't have used the tractor anyways. Shoveling 2 or 3 times a day is where we are at.)
