Surprisingly those tires do quite well in snow as long as the blower is on. If it starts spinning, just lift the blower a little bit and it stops spinning. When he first got it I got some used road grader chains from a friend of mine and made a set to fit it. After he got the blower he never needed them.
Don't help me to much! It's a 50 mile drive to get there, and I'm the only one that can do it for them.

That is a good looking piece of equipment. I've heard good things about them and some terrible things about them. Just how good or bad are they?

No it's liquid cooled. I think the engine is a Hinomoto. I know Dad put a new head gasket in it 3-4 yrs ago. Can't remember for sure but, I think it is a 5230. 30 hp.
Will possibly be for sale in the spring. Cancer is kicking Dad's a$$, probably won't make it through the winter. That's why I'm the one doing the snow removal.

Thanks Shameless. Can't fight the inevitable though. Not looking forward to it, but have accepted the fact it's gonna happen.

Prayers for your Dad and the entire family. It's a tough spot your in and not easy to accept. One thing to realize, all of us will face the same situation some day. Maybe not cancer, but the end is inevitable. God Bless.
