8' wide, double augers, gear box rated at 60 hp. We put on a tall shute on it so I can blow into trucks after it's windrowed to center of street. Windrows about 4' tall and 6' wide work best. Power it with a IH 966 Hydro. chained up. If I have good drivers and the snow is just right I can load 3 - 16' farm trucks that have 6' sides and with end gates (just like we used to use cutting silage)in less than ten minutes total. In the early 1970's they tried to use it on a IH 1466 Reg. trans, JD 4430 Quad Range, Case 1070 Powershift and they were all too fast in reverse. The blower sat in a fence row until 1984 or so until I convinced someone to try a hydro. Tried out the the 966 and bought it the next day. Works perfect for any condition. If I push it I will shear a bolt or two. I have ran this set up every year since. In the late 80's and early 90's when we got a lot more snow we loaded about 100 loads a day for two or three days straight. Last year I took out 1 bearing when I hit a chunck of cement in the windrow. Only thing we have ever done to it. Later, Funtwohunt
