Quick look at the Kubota rear mounted snow blower

Just a quick look at the Kubota rear mounted snow blower that I have on my Kubota BX25 tractor. In the video I point out the two shear pins, one near the gear box and the other near the pto output.  So far I've had only one sheared pin and this happened a couple of years ago when I was running the speed of the engine too low and was clearing 2 foot snow drifts.  The resulting accumulating of packed snow in the  collection guide was obviously too much for the pin and it broke.  Lesson is to keep the rpm near maximum when clearing deep and/or heavy snow.
