Honda HSS928 in about 20'' to 48'' of snow, very impressive beast! (02/17/2019)

[@REALflat1]

I used to work at a local ski resort and ive used both the 928 and the 1132. The track drive system is worth its weight in gold. The 1132 never quit no matter how much snow i fed it. While the 928 was a bit on the small side for ski resort level snowfalls, it did its job without fail. The 1132 was an absolute beast!

[@KF1]

Impressive how little snow is fallout out the right side of the machine. Super clean and good pacing.

[@Hunter98367]

That snow blower is working its heart out. That's a lot of snow.

[@bricenip]

in the market for a upgrade and looking for videos on the Honda HSS928 and this tipped the scales for me! Great vid. thanks!

[@evenito9455]

how do you like the HonDA 928 ?

[@markzack7838]

I got a 724 Honda with tracks... It's 20 years old and does the same thing on a smaller scale... I hate winter but is does the job and never fails me... 👍

[@flip110119]

Do you ever feel the engine is under powered?

[@flip110119]

I’m looking into a new HSS724 and on the fence with the GX200 engine if it’s strong enough? I’m in the Chicago area and I want to make sure I’m buying enough snowblower for my area.

[@markzack7838]

@@flip110119 No I t never starved for power... With that 9 horse you will have no problem whatsoever it's amazing how far these blowers can throw snow So you might have to watch out where you're throwing it so you don't hit your neighbor's house... LOL 😂 Again you will be impressed it's well worth the money... I hope this is helpful to you... Mark

[@dabprod]

No spill-out on the side. That's great. But need some drift cutters on it.

[@danswartwood4580]

Thank you for sharing and your APPRECIATION to your subscribers

[@toddb930]

I ordered one of these a couple days ago. Now we probably won't get much snow this winter.

[@appleztooranges]

I miss getting snow in Massachusetts

[@who8dapple]

I was lucky enough to purchase a well cared for 50 yr old AMF 2 stage snowblower. Not the prettiest thing, that my Kids call it the grey beast! The original owner had updated with it with a brand new 5hp Honda engine. I bought that beast almost 12 yrs ago, and that motor never fails to start in under 2-3 pulls.

[@iceranights]

Is this the one with electric start and the sensor that stops the ogger when something get cought in it

[@kimg.2617]

Yes, electric start and safety on the ogger, thanks for watching!

[@johnnywishbone1349]

I’d like one of these but doesn’t snow much here anymore so I just have a 252 cc single stage Toro

[@briggsdidnotstrapem7699]

no talk, let the honda did the talking, what a great video bro.

[@johnsikora6043]

Most snowblowers work great in soft, fluffy, dry snow like this. Does it perform well in wet heavy snow?

[@jamesnm21]

Yeah but the chute can clog

[@leaffanatic8843]

Where did you get the black bucket extender?

[@YuriLychacz]

absolute unit

[@pierrepoitras8274]

Je suis indeci entre la hss1332 ou la hss928.. As tu un conseill a me Donner?

here i am with breaking my back with my tiny honda 720 while this beast is declaring war on winter

[@charliegalanti8765]

Lol

[@Samlol23_drrich]

Look how clear the road is. Now that town knows what they are doing. Not like around here in NY where they panic for a week before a 3 inch snow.

[@chrisE815]

Which town are you in lol?

[@Samlol23_drrich]

@@chrisE815 a very small one where they are actually awesome clearing the roads (Waccabuc NY). Where i grew up and still work on Long Island is still a nightmare. Its like the "Milk and Bread" comedian before it snows

[@oscarsalas3200]

Do you regret not buying the 1132 or are you happy with the 928.

[@S_man89]

I look forward to giving my 16 horse simplicity pro a try this winter. If it needs the impeller mod I’ll give that a try. Cool video man.

[@iCANT_BELIEVE_YOU_SAID_THAT]

You have the Lamborghini of snow throwers.

[@Normambo]

Impressive job!

[@stickit2theman1]

And im just sitting here with my little 40 yo s620 single stage xD

You make me wanna take my 1332atd out. I wish we had this snow

Belle job!

I own this Machine, Its a Bad ass snow blower.

T'es en feu Pumpy!!

[@Peter-976]

Area looks familiar, where is this and what lake is that?

[@Pumpy235]

It's about 20 minutes west of Québec city. And it's not a lake, it's the St-Lauwrence river. Thanks for watching Peter!

[@michaeltobin905]

were does one find the extension for the front???

[@Pumpy235]

I bought it at my Honda dealer. It's a ''GRIPO' accessory. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks for watching!

[@tombrown4071]

Damn, Honda goes through pretty easy and don’t even hear the machine bog down

[@jeffreyash7794]

That thing is bad a$$!

[@S_man89]

Dude I know. They even make bigger models than this over seas. Like the size of a VW bug! Yamaha and Honda make really powerful and efficient snowblowers for sure.

[@tcmits3699]

That's because he slows down travel speed, HST is a must

[@gfkk2131]

I need a Honda! my 10/32 craftsman don’t even compare 😔

[@Pumpy235]

It's not the same class! Thanks for watching!

[@PainterD54]

Nice machine! Of course, it's a HONDA!

[@briancampbell5944]

Pumpy....forgot to mention that I have a 1991 8/28 Honda. Bought it new, still works like new. I run Mobil 1 5W-30 synthetic since new. Only have replaced both drive belts once, and one impeller bearing. You can't beat a Honda even though they are expensive. You get what you pay for.Thanks. What part of PQ are you in? I am from PEI.

[@mycatumz640]

Your absolutely right. I've had mine for 7 years now and all I've done is oil change and grease. Started it today and 5 pulls and away she went.

[@lalajee143]

@@mycatumz640 if you start it on 5 pulls. Something is wrong. Try spraying starter fluid in sparkplug hole. Or get a new sparkplug. It should start in 1st or 2nd pull

[@mycatumz640]

@@lalajee143 Your correct It had not been running all summer.

[@johnredford09]

I hear a snowblower running, but all I can see is a steady spurt of snow erupting out of a seriously deep bank. It's almost like a snow volcano. Hey! Did you just create a snowcano with your Honda?

[@Pumpy235]

A snowcano !!! It's funny! My honda 928 was loaded, we had a pretty good storm. Thanks for watching sir!

[@appleztooranges]

Wow you go slow with this machine. Are you suppose to?? I typically put my HS1332 at 3/4 joystick speed

[@S_man89]

You have the bigger model so that’s why you can go faster. I do believe going slower may give the best results as in not too much snow intake for the machine to quickly move it away.

[@briancampbell5944]

Pumpy....why did you use Honda vs 1026r?

[@Pumpy235]

Hi Brian! I use the tracked Honda because the slope is too steep and at the bottom there is a huge ditch and the 138 road. On the videos we don't see the grade of the slope, roughly 15% (approx). Nobody with a tractor wants to do this hill... Chains on tractor is not a option because asphalt is very nice and not old. I live in Neuville, it's about 20 minutes west of Québec city, north of the St-Lawrence river. Thanks for watching and have a nice day! It's a pleasure to write to you! Where are you in PEI?

[@briancampbell5944]

I figured it was pretty steep for the tractor. I live in Charlottetown. I was in a new 1025r with Mauser cab the other day. Nice. Tell me, how do you have your rear hydraulics on the blower hooked up? The 1025r I was in had FASSE electric solenoid valves mounted outside the cab with two switches inside to operate chute rotation and spout deflection. Very nice set up. Have a great day. We travel the north shore to Ottawa every year.

[@Pumpy235]

Hi Brian! By the way, my name is Kim and Pumpy235 is for youtube! Mauser cab are pretty nice, I saw one on youtube, wow! My 1026R have 4 hydraulics outlets at the rear: Red and blue for spout UP and DOWN, Yellow and black for the ROTATION of the chute. It's the joystick at the right of the seat who control everything: snowblower, mover and kwikbrush (rotating brush for springtime cleaning). I have only one hydraulic hose to move in front to make the mower go up and down. Sorry for my english, my wife is not here to correct my text before sending it to you, I hope you will understand what I want to explain... Have a nice day Brian!

[@briancampbell5944]

Nice to meet you Kim. Nothing wrong with your english. I wish I could speak French. I lived in Hull years ago with 3 French Canadians for one year but could not pick up your language. I can sort of read it but that is it. Is that a JD option to have 4 outlets at back? Most have only two.

[@Pumpy235]

I don't remember when I bought the JD 1026R if the rear 4 outlets was a option... I don't think so, because the 1026R was the ''FULL EQUIPED MODEL'' with what I want to do with the tractor all year long. The JD 1023E was a less equiped and a motor of 23 hp, maybe only 2 outlets at the rear... I don't remember and I don't know the specs between the 2 models. Have a nice Brian!

[@jeffreyhagelin3672]

I guess it should be a beast for three grand.

[@noroar3258]

oddly satisfying

[@stepside2839]

It is certainly doing the job But, a slow🐌 walk Throws it far, though

[@Ice.asmr5]

I would have eat a lot of white snow

[@Ram-re5em]

I got the 32 inch even better. Easy $200 bucks for this job.

[@ericanderson923]

Lettin er eat

[@russellmaddock3492]

The color or brand is in the eye of the beholder. Honda, Ariens and Toro commercial grade machines all get the job done. It really depends on what dealer is close by and has the best service. If one has to have a Honda, you will pay a premium price. Is it worth the extra cost? That is the big question. If you've got the bucks to spend, go for it. No matter what snow blowing machine you have, regular maintenance and ethanol free fuel is the key to a well running and long-lasting snow blower. I have added a link to a video. The color red gets the job done very well too. Enjoy. kzbin.info/www/bejne/p4LOooJpfJiWbpI

[@kushbandit8701]

DAM.... and I just purchased a Toro....Oh boy.....

[@orrfamily641]

I tested one today and it sucked, had snow half of what your doing and the tracks would just spin and I was on asphalt , not impressed...

[@Pumpy235]

Maybe too much pressure on front or wrong adjustement of the scraper bar or skid shoes... Or the problem is your not used to it... Try again!!!

[@oj5218]

Strange, never had that with mine

[@JohnSmith-ug5ci]

That is VERY rude blowing snow onto the road and possibly causing an accident not to mention it is illegal.
