That a plastic garbage can lid can get sucked up by a snowblower faster than you can read this sentence?
Im thinking, "why pickup the lid, I'll just get up next to it. . ."
[bang]
I had to pull all the sheer pins so I could rotate the auger back wards and rip the lid back out with a pair of channel locks [bang] [bang] [bang] [bang] [bang]
RIP garbage can lid
[laugh]
What is this "snow blower" contraption you speak of. [cheeky]
i guess the rubbermaid lid didn't bounce back from that one?

This PSA could only be improved with pictures.
Not you, MrIncredible. Also, I think the word you are looking for is "fellatisnow."

A snowblower is a device that
usually starts, but idles like an alcohol dragster with severe blower surge.

does anyone but me keep starter fluid spray around? i don't know how you guys even have seasonal equipment without it.
chunks of wood are also idea for checking shear pin effectiveness.
I lubed all cables and changed belts before winter. Now my vertical chute adjuster is frozen in place [bang]

I do. Near the generator, the spare fuel etc etc etc.
I'm ready for most any emergency.

Yup, me too.
I think there are two or three cans on my property at all times.
It also doubles as a really kickass flamethrower. ;)

Once you get the wheel and tire bolted back on (quickly) you can usually outrun the grass fire.
Unless you skipped the winter maintenance the prior year and it won't start easily....

You take the wheels off?
I had an old dump that had a tire go flat while sitting. The bead broke and I fixed it on the truck.
Had to put the fire out though.
It was in my yard.
