Snowblowing is rather simple if you keep a couiple of things in mind. First of all, the wetter the snow, the heavier it is, and the harder the tractor has to work to move the same amount of "dry" snow. Snow will move easier over a smooth serface, the smoother the better. Snow is also abusive on luittle by little it will remove paint and even slowly, wear on the steel. Protecting the areas where the snow pushes hardest against the equipment is very important. Quick solutions will wear out faster and you'll be right back where you started. and unpacking snow from a snowblower shoot is no fun. I used to rub wax, Parafin wax all over the inside of my snowblower.
Where ever the snow is under force against the machine I'd rub on the wax. One more think to keep inmind, is the angle of the shoot when blowing the snow, When in a wet snow, you'll have less problems if, you can keep the discharge angle , so that the snow discharges at a less of an angle. or higher is the air.

Good luck
