That machine really performs! My complements on that beautiful snowblower. Excellent video content too. Makes my Honda videos with a few inches of snow look like a kid playing in a sandbox.
@@jolse1 I will never complain about the snow I get ever again. I have used Honda snowblowers and walk behind mowers for many years. First class equipment that always performs well.
@@chatrkat I agree. Honda snow blowers are probably in the lead. The winter here started in november, and there is still a meter of snow on the ground, so a little sun and heat now, does good for the soul. Can't wait to start another type of Honda machine 😉
Do track blowers like this one go the same speed even when there is three or four inches of snow? Wouldn't an Ariens Kraken with rapidtrak be more useful when the snow isn't deep, but you want to remove it before driving over it?
ICS. Intelligent Control System: The snow thrower can be operated in two different modes. In manual mode, engine and forward speed can be regulated. In automatic mode, engine and forward speed are set via the ICS system, which optimizes snow clearing capacity and reduces emissions.
I had a kraken last year, I sold it to get an HSM1336i. The Honda moves as much or more snow per hour, farther, without you having to run after it. (truthfully, the Kraken's travel speed is fast, no doubt! But, if the snow is as tall as the blower housing you have to dramatically slow down the working speed of the Kraken). It comes down to better volumetric efficiency on the Honda. Also the Auto-Turn Feature on the new Ariens is something that needs a lot of work. On even flat pavement its fine, take it to break trails, off pavement and the slightest off angle or shove to keep it cutting straight on a side incline and the machine lets go and tries to turn. Only time I ever noticed the Ariens was faster than the 1336i was after the job is done and Im walking it back to the garage to put it away, but, about 20 minutes later than I get done with the same job with the Honda.

@@jolse1 Yeah I kind of thought that is what you say, I get about what you have in the video, sometimes that much 3 times a year. If it is not that much at once then I get more smaller amounts which at the end of 3 or 4 months the snow banks are just as high. How many hours do you have on your machine? Do you know how long the hybrid batteries last? Have you had any problems with the machine at all? Thanks in advance, AC
Same snow conditions as we have here in the north 🇧🇻 It is a 2010 model, which has had up to 120 hours one winter. Replaced batteries in 2019. Have never had any trouble with it. Have encountered rocks, logs, fire pans, power cords and flower pots, but no major repairs. Has probably replaced 50 break pins / bolts 😏 It is a very solid and reliable machine.
Thanks 👍 To 24 volts electric motors, located in separate drive belts, ensure smooth operation. A powerful top-ventilated 4-stroke Honda petrol motor of a full 11 HP drives the feed screw and the ejector fan.
@@jolse1 I guess I'm confused what the big deal is about the "hybrid" system. Did Honda just realize this would be cheaper than a hydrostatic system (and have similar performance) or is there a reason from a usability perspective that Honda design these blowers as a "hybrid." Any advantages you can see inherent to this design that can't be accomplished with the hydrostatic platform of the smaller blowers? Just curious
Hybrid technology: To achieve optimal control, Honda's unique hybrid technology uses the engine power in two ways: firstly by the engine driving the generator which charges the batteries for the belt drive. Second, by transferring maximum power directly to the infeed auger for a superior snow clearing result.
Intelligent Control System: The snow thrower can be operated in two different modes. In manual mode, engine and forward speed can be regulated. In automatic mode, engine and forward speed are set via the ICS system, which optimizes snow clearing capacity and reduces emissions.

Thank you very much for a nice feedback. It sometimes gets a bit snowy here, so now I'm looking forward to summer 😊

Clean powder, no wind, and a powerful machine make for a beautiful video.
Thank you very much. A perfect day.
This thing is a workhorse, my 25 yr old HS928 is still like brand new, they last forever 👍
@turbo5483
Bought a 1380 last winter. Hope this one lasts as long as the old ones 🤞
Thanks for watching..
You need drift cutters on that beautiful machine. I’m jealous!
Please do more of these! Third time watching, it’s so satisfying and relaxing, great video
Hello. Thank you very much for the nice feedback.
It has been a cold winter, with little snow, up here in the north 😪
Awesome video! I think I watched all your videos at least twice, lol. I have a 1332CTD, I look forward to lots of snow, cheers!
So nice that you like the videos I post.
I had to watch the " bucket challenge " several times. It looked painful 😊
Very powerful and beautiful,$ well spent !!!🤗
Worth every penny 😉
Hey thank you,buddy !
Hint : when it boggs down stop and ket it recover 🤦🏻♂️
WHAT A BEAST SHE IS ! KEWL VIDEO
Thanks ✌It's a beast!
very impressive.
I agree with you 😉
Yikes thats allot of snow but look at it eat it up.
HH = Hungry Honda 😉
God dam that thing blows snow
It's a monster to eat snow 😊

The red paint on the buildings, is it a special paint?

Did you add that light yourself?
Hello Ben.
It's original 😊
@@jolse1 thanks for the reply! I have a headlight on mine but it’s pretty weak. I may put an LED on it. Just need to add a couple components.
@@jolse1 I just did some googling, cub cadet has one on their larger blowers and apparently it’s available as a kit!
@@BenNawrath
That's nice. Could have been mounted a little higher. Gets full of snow quickly.
@@jolse1 good to know if I mount my own!
Definitely bogging around back 4:30. Typical Honda motor. More HP less torque. Get a Briggs with around the same HP. You will get 4 times the torque.
Nice machine buddy
Where is this, Canada?
Take care🤙
Hello.
This is in Norway my friend.
Stay safe ✌🇧🇻
@@jolse1 Norway, cool!
Thanks for replying and nice snowblower, I am thinking of getting one of those hybrids.
Take care and stay safe ✌️🇨🇦
If you have a lot of snow, you will not regret it, I promise you 😊

One question. What makes it a hybrid? You got some snow! Good video. 👍
Thanks 👍

@@jolse1 Wow that's one awesome machine. Thanks for explaining.
@@jolse1 can it be moved (propelled) around the shop without starting the engine?
@@chrisE815 Hello.
Never tested this. Will have to find the manual 😊

You're moving too fast .. Can't you hear the sound of your engine...Or see that you are not shooting as far when the engine is over loaded..?

I know. I own one for the past 10 years
