    Tim you are awesome at your job ! 42 years and still going, it’s great that Griff is now helping out and doing the plowing before you attach the blower. I recognize all of these areas.. especially the pond 👌❤️. I never knew that the blower had two chutes though. Very cool .. stay safe.

    Great video! I definitely see the pros & cons between the plowing & blowing. This is slower but only needs one pass - could be better for the driveways you do. I like the top skirt - stops snow from being thrown to the left of the path! Great camera work too!

    • @griffgranger
      @griffgranger  Рік тому +8

      Thanks you!! We typically will blow both sides of the road if it's a bigger storm, but sometimes we can get away with one pass. The blade is fast for opening everything up usually and we can get everything set for the blower. Both very important to keeping the roads clear!

    With the latest storms the snow has been VERY WET. How do your machines handle that? Do you have to wait until it dry's out a little or business as usual?

    • @griffgranger
      @griffgranger  Рік тому

      Business as usual, the chute on the blower clogs easier if you're not careful. Thanks for watching!

    • @bubbasizemore4556
      @bubbasizemore4556 Рік тому

      One trick I've learned is to spray the chute with silicon spray before you blow. It helps prevent the chute from clogging.
