For snow less than 6" deep I just use my electric Toro 1800 Power Curve Snowblower, and four 100 foot cords connected together. Works great, no need for gas. Only when the snow is more than 6" so I even bother to start up my tracked Honda blower. I have a 400 foot driveway that I clear this way, been doing this for the past 6 years and the small little Toro is still running just fine. ( close to Barrie, Ontario, Canada, where there is a LOT of snow during the winters.)
That's a great machine my father in law bought one shortly before he passed away. If he asw this video we would be driving up from Michigan. My mother in law loves to use it, unfortunately for me. We all have all wheel drive and snow tires so we don't need it that much, but it's great to have. Love your videos.
Thanks. Sorry to hear about your father in law. Thank you for your sub and for watching our channel. These are great machines. We don't use it much but if we need to shovel then we use it.
Have a great weekend and stay safe.
i been out plowing all evening and sitting here listening to that blow sower run made me so sleepy great video
bud moore
See. I knew our video's would put you to sleep lol. Get some rest.
Love looking at these old vids and seeing what hasn't been done yet.Ha!
Withnall the stuff that's on RUclips and your watching our old videos. Lol. Thanks.
Hey Paul: It just fits between gas pump and your bldg! My son has our 1991 8/28 Honda and it has been worked lots this winter but no complaints. Had to re and re all the bearings and locking collars on my JD 47" front blower last week. It to has blown tons of snow since 2001 so it was time for a complete physical. Waiting for the blizzard coming tomorrow, 50+ cm forecast. Be safe.
Oh man. More snow! Awful. At least your blower is going to be working well. Yes the Hondas are great machines. Keep safe buddy.
Good video Paul and Kathy.
Derek Jans
Thank you Derek
I have had Honda 760 on Wheel very nice also had Honda 1380 HSS Last year and this year i ended up with Honda 1590i :) Just amazing
+Sverre Fossen
I'm not recolonizing the model numbers. You must be outside of North America That being said the Honda Blowers are fantastic.
Hi Paul& Kathy Great video on Honda snow blower have a wonderful day
Thank you very much. Happy to hear you enjoyed it. Have a great weekend. Thanks for watching.
Thanks Paul, I enjoyed the Vids. Helped me with my decision to purchase Honda.
+Mike Ewen
Cool. Thanks. They are the Rolls Royce of blowers.
That it, i'm going to get some pop corn this time , thank you Kathy and Paul, another good video two in one night that a bonus
Gilles Godin
We tried for three but the shop go to busy. Glad your happy to see some of our video's up. Thanks for watching.
Two blow snower movies in one night. Wow that's a fantastic machine , up on the deck and all. No my shovelling the deck any more Kathy. Thanks for doing this demo on the Honda , it looked real cold out there hope you had your gloves on Kathy. :)
Wow I can type at 100 wpm but it seems I can only form sentences and spell at 5 wpm.
Steve Rob
She was out for 1.5 hours and go fantastic footage. Glad you enjoyed it.
Steve Rob
Not to worry. The two of us are like it lol.
Nice job!
Rick Anderson
Thanks Rick.
Damn fine machine! I think it'd be illegal for me to love mine more, certainly people would look at me weird!
snocat
Your getting great use out of yours this winter. This is only the second time for us.
Hey Paul, great video FYI your Honda can climb stairs very well so even if you did not build the ramp you could drive it right up on to you patio with no problems.
Bevin McCaine
It might climb up stairs with no snow on them but not with snow. I tried it and all it would do is spin. I designed the aluminum ramp for two reasons. #1 so the tracks wouldn't tear up the step. #2 makes it easier to get on the patio. :)
Very cool , that things a beast. ! I followed you on Twitter
Matthew Morehouse
Thanks
Looks like an impressive machine... it's a pity we don't get snow like that here coz one of them would be fun to play with :) But... I'm sure the novelty would soon wear off and I'd soon be sick of snow as it seems many of you Northern hemisphere people are.
Good job Paul and I'm sure Kathy will appreciate not having to shovel the verandah off.
Peter Baynes
Yes you'd tire of too much snow but it's nice when it's not wet like most of the snow we get. Oh ya. Kathy likes the snow blower. That's a lot of snow to shovel.
That's quite the machine, got some range on it too, gonna have to take the forklift and put it on the roof
CarolinaFarmWeld
Yes. They are well known for producing great snow blowers.
The Blower Snow (LOL) works great... Kathy, how come we don't see you using it???...LOL Thanks for sharing...
Bought aJD eleven horse five years ago. Payed good money very disappointed .Blows snow good but the transmition friction drive slips once it gets wet. Wished I would have gone Honda at the time but they were quite a bit more. get what you pay for!!!!
Always come back to your vids. !! Although I haven't seen any snow yet, it's coming....like the big Honda beast. Yamaha sells a beast just like the Hondas, but only in Canada???? Don't understand that one.
+frankie2234
Thanks Frankie. I looked at the Yamaha model last year and it kind of looked home grown to me. The other thing was Yamaha went 12 years without building them or sending them to Canada as well so buyer confidence was a major factor in my decision to buying Honda.
You mentioned picking up crush stone with your snow blower, I have learned over the years you should not have flames and sparks coming out of your discharge chute, bad sign. They don't give away those new replacement parts and they are about the same price as a new blower.
liveinmyamerica
Oh I know. I rebuild at least three or four of these blowers each year. Anything other than snow is killer to a snow blower.
Paul that is one snow eating machine you have there
Thanks. We're happy with it.
Paul, when you attach led lights to your blower you need to connect a voltage rectifier. It prevents the light from "flickering".
There's no flickering off camera. It's like the camera picks it up for some reason. Maybe the FPS. Bet is I set the camera up to 60 FPS you wouldn't see it.
You need to devise a roof cleaning system that clears all snow over 3 inches automatically. I want my name on the patent too if you don't mind...it IS my idea after all. LOL Great video, we need one of Kathy doing Kathy things....
larryz24
It's coming. It's called rain and lots of it for tonight. Crazy weather. Stay safe down there my friend.
thank guys my blizzard will be here around 3 pm have a great day guys god bless
Charles Powers
Oh man. Hope all goes well. Be careful out there my friend.
God Bless
Paul, it appears that you need more alone time with that Honda. Practice makes perfect.
Hum. So your saying I don't know how to use it?
Paul Short I am sure you know how to use it, in this video you appear a bit awkward with it. It is new so I am sure you will eventually get used to it.
Really? Wow. First I've heard of it.
What model was this? Yes great video thank you!
That's a nice machine moves snow quite nicely. I do like the 5740 better though but that blowsnower is very nice. I remember a while back a year or two ago you had a video of moving snow away from the house with the BX. Would you do that again with the big drifts up the house or just leave it?
The only reason we used the BX last year to move the snow is because we gave our son our snow blower. He needed one worst than us. We bought this Honda to replace the one we gave away. If we had it last year we wouldn't have used the BX to move snow. The Honda can move that snow way faster than the BX.
I knew it, you weren't going to use the shovel to clean off the patio. :) And then you said Kathy's going to shovel the steps. LOL! I can't say that I blame you as long as Kathy wants to do it. You got that ramp out and I thought, I knew it! Now that you got to use the blow snower, how many mods did you think of doing to it? You always think of mods after you use it, at least I do. That thing does a great job. I didn't think it would make it up the ramp when I seen it but I thought you put some kind of grip on it. You'll have to use some rhino liner on it but it would be heavy then. Great job at videoing Kathy. And Paul, I hope you're not going to be sore from ALL that work. :) God Bless you two! Levi~~
I tried to get the blower up on the step before but it slipped on the stairs with all the snow so the diamond aluminum plate worked great.
Yes there's one more mod that has to happen. These blowers are to lie on the handle bars so a riser kit needs to be designed and added. I'll do that this coming week. Other than that I'm pleased with the machine.
Hope you have a great weekend.
God Bless. Kathy says hi.
As you know, I have a brain injury... Aside from that I must have some other affliction (gear head disease?). I can sit and watch the last two videos of blow snowing but complain that watching golf is boring...
So now you need to gut the quad copter and apply the components to the Honda and get yourself some FPV goggles so you can sit in the house and clean the walkways while drinking coffee!
Ah I don't know about your brain injury. Your one of the brightest people I know. We are all gear heads at heart. That's a good thing. There's worst things you could have on your mind. Yes an rc blower would be nice lol.
Keep well my friend.
Paul that is one Blow Snower
+John Gibbs
It's a great blow snower especially if your pave way is drived lol.
*Wave pay
I feel cheated!!!!! I saw the thumbnail photo of Kathy and the blow snower and thought "YES" a Kathy video cool lets check this out. (The video Paul just the video). Low and be hold "NO" Kathy. Well now I am thinking to myself this is some sort of false advertising or something silly like that. You know where there show those cute women in the thumbnail and then some guy shows up instead!......Now I ain't say'n you are ugly Paul or that I don't enjoy watch'n you and your videos but really now do ya think that was fair and all. Oh lord what is this world coming to? LOL love the video and all Paul. Keep it coming cause i'll be tuning in again.
The Plow Guys
To tell the truth before I turned on the camera I said to myself "If I put my picture on the opening page of the video those plow guys won't watch" so I put Kathy's there and it worked LOL
Gee you sure catch on quick those. I got friends that would watch this video at least 8 times before they would catch on.
Kathy and I are still laughing about your comments.
My comments on Kathy are innocent and just ment to get a chuckle. We always look forward to watching the two of you go at it. I even got the wife to watch now. Well my daughter is up and we have to start build a new rabbit cage. yippee what fun. and it is only -25 c outside to boot.
The Plow Guys
Oh man and a good chuckle they go. We where sitting here laughing. Hey if your going to build a cage please build it big enough to put my mother in law in it. Na. on the other hand don't. We'll be charged for cruelty to animals lol. Man you got it cold.
I got to head out and clean the driveway. A little snow last night.
That is an amazing machine, I wonder why that model is not available here in the US?
cat637d
Not sure why that is. The market should be there. It's a great model with some very nice features.
That Honda blow snower really throws the snow quite well. Was there a reason you choose to blow the snow on to the roof of your shop?
bwillan
Yes it do. The reason for the snow on the roof was to show how far the machine would blow the snow. It's called a "Photo Moment"
Hi Paul I have a couple of questions for you.
How do the track snow blowers compair to the ones on wheels I mean in weight for turning ?
Also would you recommend a tracked or wheel snow blower?
Cam Trathen There's so many ways to grade the two. Triditionally the wheeled snow blower is less expensive and cheaper to repair. In most cases they are faster to move around. They are noisy, vibrate excessively and usually only have electric start via AC (plug into and outlet). Less traction.
With the Honda tracked blower they are expensive, a little slower. Seldom break down, very reliable, great traction, all the bells and whistles including in my case the power chute, electric start at the key and because it's a Honda it's very smooth.
After using both its obvious I like the Honda.
Hi Paul. I just purchased the 2016 HONDA HSS1332ACTD
Any ideas on adding Grip Warmers (Honda should have included them REALLY)!!?
I just put a video of installing these on e HS828.
Hi Paul, where did you get the bucket extension? I have an HSS724 and would like to add this. Very nice addition.Tks
+Mike Ewen
You might get them via your Hinda dealer or go direct to the manufacturer here www.esfdirect.com/catalog.aspx?l=4&c=3990039526700059000&man=3989397585100055000
I think it might be time for a snow blower attachment for the bx
allied1394
Wouldn't work for our needs. the big tractor has the rear blower for the big stuff and the Honda takes care of the patio and paths.
paul are you running a snow load test on the shop roof
Na. Just taking advantage of the Kodak moment. Wanted to show how far and high it could toss the snow.
I think we have the same blower Paul. What do you use for shear pins? Those OEM ones are pretty soft. I don't seem to see anything else available other than OEM.
Blair Long
I've never sheared a pin yet but remember, I only have little over two hours on mine up to this point.
We have another storm hitting us now in Fredericton, so I'll be putting on another two hours tomorrow before going into work tomorrow night.
for the price of that snow blower you could have bought a nice atv and attached a blade in the front. awesome snow blower though
I use the blower for up on the patio and the path ways. We have a couple of Kubota tractors that take care of the rest. An ATV wouldn't work good here with the size of our property and the amount of snow we get. ruclips.net/video/AdHzkzu4cPY/видео.html
Bring that to my house in nh my snow is 5 feed deep up to the windowsills near the house from the roof
Tyson Walsh
Wow. That's a lot of snow.
that blow snower can throw snow pretty far great video
Thanks. I'm pleased with it.
Is your Honda snowblower difficult to turn?
Good day Paul,
Where did you get the bucket extender?
Hi. Check your Honda dealer.
@@7863348 I live in CBS and checked Honda Town in Carbonear today and they said they do not carry them. Waiting to hear back from Honda One in town.
@@leaffanatic8843 Homda One is where I bought mine. Talk to Terry in Parts and tell him your looking for a spill guard like the one you sold Paul Short. He’ll know. Maybe they’re discontinued now. Maybe your just not talking to the right people 😉
Hi Paul, Where did you get your drift cutter at?!
brickit26 Aftermarket from the dealer.
Does honda make them, looked all over the internet for them...
brickit26
It's an aftermarket part sold via Canadian Honda dealers.
Paul Short You damn canadian's get all the good honda stuff! Thanks Paul
brickit26
Do you live close to the border? Maybe they will ship it to you?
I live near Chicago Il, just spoke to a dealer in Canada and they are shipping me one, awesome. Thanks Paul keep the videos coming, I really like your snow removal vids.
Paul can you tell me in a email the GPS unit you use I would like to add one to my John Deere skid steer and my commercial mower.
Milton Fludgecow
Answered. ;)
I was very honored to see your video, with his wife in his Honda GL1800.
that structure has its parents, my name is eduardo I am 37 years braileiro and unfortunately my parents have not much respect for their cidadaos.gostaria to get to know your parents.
much health and success in your life.
eduardo trindade
Thank you very much Eduardo. Very nice of you to watch out video. I hope you have a great life and please be happy.
Cheers from Canada
Man that thing really blows
TechStories79
Ha! Ya it really do lol
Hi Paul
Have you encountered any issues with this blower,I have read several articles where a shear pin on the Track breaks and it is very difficult to replace,if you can find one.
None what's do ever. Haven't even had one in the shop for that issue.
Thanks for the reply,I notice in the video that it was moving slow,was that a full throttle speed you were using it at or was that the actual speed.Also in comparison with the Honda HSS928TCD versus the Ariens Deluxe 28"SHO, Model 921048,would you say purchasing the Honda would be worth investing the extra cost,over the Ariens with regards to quality/price.I know a guy who is selling a 2014 for $2900,just wondering if this is a good price,knowing that it has no warranty etc.What type of problems have you encountered/repaired on those machines.
what kind of jacket is that?
+Kevin Reichel (Beatle1996)
It's a winter safety jacket.
do you know where you bought it from and what brand
Copy that
