I picked up this 6' snowblower for $150 and it looks quite rusty but is actually in fairly good shape. The faded orange paint doesn't help any. It can be reversed by changing the pto shaft and chute handle to the opposite end and then removing two bolts and switching the 3pt section to the opposite side. It was connected for reverse plowing so I tried it out and it worked well except for the traction part with a TO 20 Ferguson without chains. I then turned it around so it would be pulling forward and to my surprise it hardly threw any snow out at all although it graded nice. I found out that the scroll part that pulls the snow in was pushing it outwards because turning the blower end for end caused it to turn backwards. The scroll section is welded in place so there is no way to flip it around to pull the snow in. Why would the blower be made to mount both ways and not have a way to turn the scroll around? Any ideas? Can anyone tell me what brand this as the labels are scuffed off?. I think that this blower would work real well pulling forward as the weight transfer when raising it slightly really makes it dig in. It would have to be used in the right area such as a long driveway and if the wind was wrong the driver would look like a snowman.

Here is another view. I finally figured out how to get the photo posted. I was putting it in the Link rather than the Image URL. It might be helpful for others to know that the picture will show up in the preview before you post.
