First test of my Snow Joe was a massive blizzard that dropped 20+ inches of snow with drifts well over 3ft. kzbin.infoUgkxoHYZbq5g9fkcAtinlTqstNlje-UQkCHN This snow thrower is definitely not designed for this much snow but it powered through it. We did have to knock down taller drifts with a shovel and at times the chute was awkward because snow banks were much higher than it could throw, but still much easier than shoveling. The plus side of the small size is the maneuverability. Easy to lift up to walkways and works in tight spaces near cars. Highly recommend.Note: after assembling it started but did not turn. The belt wasn't in place. Easy fix.

Great job. Not a lick of snow on the whole property! Just kidding. Informative video. I was just given one of these so thanks for the info

Well said kid nice

Do you need to leave it charged up for some time? My Troy-built is 2420 self-propelled and just got it, it is gassed up.

Just bought a 2420 and put it together today. It doesn’t have a throttle ? Why ?

Thanks for the demo

Nice video. Thanks. A couple of questions: 1) Is it better to drain the gasoline at the end of the season, or to keep tank full, add gas stabilizer, and start the blower periodically throughout the summer? 2) Is it okay to use ethanol gasoline? I don't myself. I've heard ethanol is bad for these types of engines.

We have this snow blower. We turned it on wednesday to make sure it worked for upcoming snow and it ran. Tried to start it the next and it won't start. What could have happened

Thank you for this video! I'm a visual learner, so the owner's manual isn't helpful for me. I really appreciated the tutorial!

How do you make a U turn with this? there is no steering nor can I disengage one wheel to make it easier to turn. It seems like I have to force it to make wide turns? thanks for the video

Thank you so much young man I inherited my father's Troy-Bilt snowblower and I had no clue how to work it at all. I especially thank you for telling me the proper gear to be in.

I just got my first snowblower and NO WHERE in the owner's manual does it tell you what this young man just told me. Thanks for answering so many of the questions the manufacturer didn't have the foresight to address.

Very helpful. Thanks a bunch.

Thanks bro this video helped me

Thanks bro

You covered all I needed. Nice presentation. Keep it up.

I never used a snowblower til last season and I really needed this video. now its a new season already and I'm watching this video again for a refresher. thank you for making this video...its so helpful!

Just bought this. My questions are do I use 4 cycle oil and how much do you put in? Thanks

I have that same exact snowblower, luvvvvv it...I just finished tuning completely up...bring on the snow storms Ohio 😆😂🤣😁😆😂🤣😅😆

Thanks for the post. I installed the MeltBuddy on my Ariens snowblower but noticed a problem. The gate bracket (black colored at the bottom of the bucket) does not shut all the way when the control lever is not being squeezed. It looks like any added ice melt will just fall through the open gap when not in use. On your MeltBuddy, does the bracket shut completely when not in use? Thanks.

I looked in my manual I have the storm 2410 two stage gas powered troy bilt and to turn in while it is running, looks like (according to manual..) there should be 2 levers on the underside of both L & R handles, I do not have that. I have no idea how to turn it, I usually just struggle & use all my strength to do so. Can you comment on this. Thanks.

Thank You I was stuck on how to turn this on

Why are these things so damned complicated to start?

Thanks for the video. Did I break the machine if i forgot to turn the knob back to original shown at 4:29 in this video. The machine just ran for like a minute or two then stopped. I though it run out of gas so I pumped in. Machine worked again then stopped in another minute or so. I realized I probably forgot to turn the knob. I stopped and waited to turn on the machine but never got back to work after several attempts. I did wait for a few minutes for another try though.

Can you show one with the electric start. Mine is not starting and its been awhile since I've used it.

Love this and your industriousness! I see a bright future for you!

Thanks!

This was extremely helpful...thank you!

Nice work with the video. Watched it once, fired it up! Appreciate your help posting this!

Awesome , thanks for the help !! I have had mine 3 yrs bought it for the WV snows and just moved to Va. Still have yet to fire it up .

Thank you JCO for this video. It helps a lot for first time snow blower users like me.

Thanks for the video, exactly what I was looking for. 👍

*”Does a nice job right down to pavement!>>>**ur2.pl/988** A little difficult on wet snow but motor does not lose power! Only flaw is shute turns with vibration of machine. But maybe do to the fact I did DW 40 all moving parts before using it for first time. For the money you can't go wrong!”*

So how was this setup did everything work good I’m looking into getting into landscaping

Thank you soooo much!!! My father is the one who does it but he is outside the country, we just had 8" of snow and I read the instructions but couldn't get it started. I missed the bunny part.. you saved me, thanks 😊

OUTSTANDING!!! Thanks!!

*”VERY HAPPY WITH IT.USED IT 5 TIMES NOW AND IT WORKS BETTER THAN I THOUGHT IT WOULD.EASY TO USE AND PUSH.>> **t.co/UPqJOmt0y8** << WHATS NICE IS IT'S LIGHT ENOUGH I CAN PUT UP ON MY DECKAND BLOW THE SNOW OFF IT.A COWORKER IS NOW THINKING ABOUT BUYING ONE.”*

Helpful video...thanks for posting!

Thanks JCO. Big help.

Thank you! My husband is out of the country & of course it snowed. This really helped!

Did you buy that or demo it? If you haven't bought it you should buy a 770t

hey thanks again man i oww you

thanks hope i didnt damage motor added 20 oz like tha manuel said and ran it for about 2 hours no wonder there was white smoke every so often. do you think i can just remove oil to reccomended level. and leave it or do you think i could have ruined motor

does this come with any oil in motor already

Thanks. Just what I was looking for.

and can subscribe to my youtbube channel plese it would mean a lot. And i also got this vid to 100 likes so i liked the vid great video!!

do you use gas and oil or just oil?

Thank you for the video. I had attempted to use the electric starter,and my snowblower started right up. After I turned the choke to the run position, the machine died whenever I depressed the auger control handle. I had used the snowblower a few days prior without this problem.Was wondering if I am missing a step.

Thanks for this video... just what I was looking for before the first big snow of 2017 hits the Northeast tonight!

Hi JCO, might want to reshoot this video. Pretty hard to hear you and maybe have the blower out of the garage already, so you don;t have to do that. Also, don;t put your hands in the blades, even when it is off, as people don;t know that blades can still spin even when it is off. Too many fingers and hands to get sewn back on here in the Colorado! Thanks
