Yeah, no action shots but its something. Probably my first tractor post in months I've been working the 101 hard. Been my main machine this winter. Heck, I bet it does better than the 6518 did (That ones up at the cabin...stranded). Still need to fix the hydraulics and get on some belt guides but its working good enough to last the winter.



I'll see if I can get some action shots or video next snowstorm. |
 Yup, Its Mark! Security!!! |

Gotta love the old iron! You need a trailer to load the walker on and pull behind the 101 to your snow removal jobs! Looks like a dynamic duo there. Wondered where your winter posts have been.  |

Mark what is the model of snowblower you have on the101. How wide is it and what kind of horsepower does it take? Is it a single belt drive or a 3 belt drive ? I would like to get a snow blower for my 101 but don't know what to get for my 101 16hp. I have posted this request but really get any answers. Please give me your opinions. Thanks Alan |

Roy, do you have the same affliction I do...."handles won't fit your hands"? The doctor tells me it's a rare condition that there is no cure for. I told him I want no cure! Besides, my Wife's hands fit the yard rake & garden hoe just fine! |

Gee, it must not be that rare as I am afflicted also. My wife even sent me to PT. Thankfully the treatments were ineffective.  |

I've never used a walking tractor, but I'd bet they are better than those new $500 snow blowers. Nice LL, makes me want to get one running again. |

Its a single belt drive, 36" wide, I think the engine is a 10hp. It works really good so far for me.

Looks similar to me. It would be cool if you could buy a replacement two stage snow blower which would fit the Sovereign Simplicity/AC machines and the walking tractors. Or a two stage for a powerMax.
