One of my good neighbors had already gone to work Friday morning before the big snow storm ended. His wife and daughter were left to clean out their driveway with their snowblower. I was also cleaning out mine. I heard the wife yell to her daughter that the snow blower wasn't working right, so I went over to see. Just a shear pin on the left side auger, which they had extras of. I had them back in business in 5 minutes. These are nice folks and I was glad I could help out. He'd be over to help me in the same situation, should it occur. Now my other "mutant" neighbor's kid has a new 4x4 truck that he thinks is fun to drive through the plowed snow on the edge of the road, kicking large amounts back down into the part we drive on........ maybe installing the proper size shear pin in his brain will fix his problem too. :roll:

I always try to help out where I can, sometimes it gets me in trouble though.

My sister called tonight... seems the skid shoes on her TORO SNOWBLOWER NEEDS ADJUSTMENT OR MAYBE REPLACEMENT...

Just curious, do you not like Toro snowblowers?
