Poor little Kabota owner found out it takes 1 -1/2 hours to change over from mower deck to snowblower. When the snow melts, it will expose a pile of subframe for the conversion, a belt that is misplaced , and if you listen closely, the owners screams of frustration will still be echoing through the woods.

Been there every year with the neighbors little orange 😈

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: I'm always impressed at how easy it is to change attachments even on grass in the yard... can't wait until I can have a concrete floor or driveway. :))

The neighbor has a Cub rebranded MTD and gets me to to swap the deck and blower. Yah 1.5 hrs, much of it laying on the ground PITA. I think those engineers were winners in a Rube Goldberg contests :cuss:

:112: So if you remember, last Saturday I had mentioned that the first cranes had returned and that would mean we would get a snowstorm. I was not wrong....3" Monday morning.
Heading out now to warmup Ingy for 7-8". :O

I guess we're going to get most of our winter in March. :106:
:446cart: let's go, it's finally time to blow. :peace:

I just got in from shovelling a couple of inches of fluffy stuff off the sidewalk - I know when it's 100° this summer I'll be wishing it was colder... :violin:
These regularly scheduled Friday snowstorms are getting to be a bit routine - glad I'm retired and not commuting back and forth to work any more.

In spite of whatever I may think or do, they get muddy a lot. Nothing I can do about it, and it doesn't bother :wife: at all. :109:

Still no significant snowfall here this year. Most I've gotten this season was 3" the other week. Sometimes I think I'd be better off with a walk behind snowblower and not doing the full conversion every year.
