The slots can also be used to advance the vanes when they show signs of wear, extending their life. This makes them more forgiving when you position holes. These vanes have unique mounting slots.This means that part weights will not disturb the balance of your impeller. All components are commercially precision manufactured. By adding a set of rubber vane extensions to your impeller you can close this gap and throw show and slush farther while dramatically reducing chute clogging. In many cases wear or distortion makes these gaps bigger as machines get older and performance is reduced. Wet slushy snow causes even greater problems with clogging and poor discharge distance. Factory impellers have gaps around the impeller that reduce the discharge and let the impeller clog up with snow that stays behind. Your snowblower or snowthrower is actually a snow pump. Over the years they acquired Snapper and they have since been acquired by Briggs & Stratton. in 1983 management bought the Simplicity operation from Allis Chalmers and it was once again an independent company.

For the most part, "what you see is what I know".
I do not have parts or documentation except where mentioned. NOTE: With the exception of my mentioned BobcaT I do not own any of the machines on this page. There are plenty more stories to tell, Dynamark, Poloron, Noma and many, many more! I'll be featuring the oldest and most interesting machines on this page. E-mail a picture of your vintage snowblower and tell me a bit about it including it's age. I want to thank the many people mentioned and not that have provided information and pictures over the years. While today's designs are by far superior it may have been more fun back then.
They are from past years and represent the diversity found in the early efforts. These are not Gilsons there is plenty about those machines elsewhere on the site. Here are pictures of some machines and a little history from my archives, please forgive the quality on some.
