Bent snowblower auger

[Dub11]

I have a BCS two wheeled tractor. If I had a need for snowblower, that is the way I would go. I do have a blade for mine that works in a pinch.

Those are cool.

I bought it for the tiller, then got a rotary plow, potato plow, built a blade, and I have a cart that attaches to it and I haul stuff to the garden and veggies back home. I wish I would have went bigger.

How many different models do they make?

Quite a few now. If I was to do it again, I would have got a Grillo. Cheaper but same quality and I could have went bigger. Check out www.earthtoolsbcs.com

I bent the end of a blade, about 2 inches bent almost all the way back. I was able to straighten it out using a couple of pipe wrenches and a pipe cheater. Didn't have to disassemble anything!

Buy a half a dozen actual shear pins. They are designed for it. Don't use any grade of straight bolts. This is coming from someone who has straightened bent augers, twisted buckets and worst of all, stripped gears in the gear case. When you have to pay for new shafts or brass gears, a couple of extra bucks for shear pins or shear bolts ain't too bad.

Some great advice I bought a used honda previous owner put some grade 5 bolts in it. While replacing them noticed the augers were rusted on the shafts.

Make sure ya lub your shaft... Lol
