Well thought I'd post a pic of my newest piece of equipment. It's a 2012 toro 621qze single stage blower. I'll prob use it on heavy snowfall days only. Reason I got it is cause it was 65% off !!! brand new never used. Keep in mind though they are crazy expensive here compared to USA or Eastern Canada. Never having owned a single stage blower, I think this is a good one. Yes? No?

Those powerclears are machines. Awesome deal on that too. You definately wont regret it.

I used mine to clear 4" of cement today.

One tip tho, be nice to the starter rope its a btard to repair. Not a quick on site fix by any means.

Good to know, it has the electric start option but I'll always be using the rope at customers house. I did research to find the machine I wanted, & I decided this is the one I wanted, when I saw price I said no way I'll pay that, then found this at the local HD on clearance. I didn't want a big 2 stage that weighs a ton & takes up all the room, I wanted the lightest but most powerfull/capable single stage. Now all I need is some more snow to test it out.

That's just it. They are small enough and light enough that one guy can lift it all night and Not feel abused. Yet still capable of doing the job.
I noticed yours is the 4 stroke id love to hear you thoughts on the noise level. Mines the older 2 stroke and LOUD.

I'll let you know for sure when I get it going, I'll see what the decimal reading is.

Got my new trailer logo'd up, only a few small decals to put on. Looks good I think but not cheap though! How you think it turned out? Kinda want the word Handyman a little taller.
