Just picked up a Snobee that I think is 5 hp. It is single stage. Got it running and it runs dang well. And since it is MN, it is snowing again so I tried it out. It blows snow further than my 8 hp 2 stage!
The chute bounces around quite a bit. Does anyboy have a solution to that?
It is serial number 4-001984 The decals of A/C make me believe it is an early 60's model. How old would this be? It is funny....no safety devices anywhere on it.
I'll post pictures later on Monday.
Thanks

I think the 4 in the s/n makes it a 4hp. I have a 6 and an 8....still looking for the 4! The chutes on mine dance around a lot also. I think that is just the way they are. Maybe it helps them throw snow further! Have fun.... ------------- ALLIS EXPRESS! This year: |

All those older single stage AC snow blowers did that right on up to the 90's with Agco Allis's. No easy solution. It don't hurt anything. I asked grandpa once about that on the B212, he said it did it since it was new. ------------- German Shepherd dad 1957 Allis Chalmers WD45 #WD234847 1951 Allis Chalmers WD #WD88193 |

Further question...do you have to pull off the covers on yours to fill the fuel tank? ------------- D19D, D17D, WD, WC, Snobee, #83 Plow, SC Blade, 14' disk, 400 series planter, B , Terra Tiger, M Dozer w/Baker Blade, TL-12, 42S Grader, G |

Here are the pics. The second one sorta shows how tough it is to fill these with gas.
