made my snowblower want to climb on top instead of digging in. Plus the wind was blowing so hard the snow mist was being blown back in my face/goggles.

Second pass yesterday afternoon was much easier.


Usually only see that issue where the snowblower wants to climb on top when the snowplow leaves a pile at the end of the driveway and it refreezes. This snow was dry enough I never had issues with it clogging the chute.

But I'd sprayed the blades, intake, 2nd stage impeller, and the chute with silicone to keep snow from sticking. Worked well.
