Re: Pictures: this moment
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.

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.Spike188 wrote: ↑Tue Mar 07, 2023 9:05 am Poor little Kabota owner found out it takes 1 -1/2 hours to change over from mower deck to snowblower.

Re: Pictures: this moment
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 contestsSpike188 wrote: ↑Tue Mar 07, 2023 9:05 am Poor little Kabota owner found out it takes 1 -1/2 hours to change over from mower deck to snowblower.

Re: Pictures: this moment
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". Now they are saying 4" for Sunday.
I guess we're going to get most of our winter in March.

Re: Pictures: this moment
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...
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.

Oh, I have the mud too, it's just under the snow, except what went through the snow caster.

Re: Pictures: this moment
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 at all.

Re: Pictures: this moment
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.
