It is like everything else, ya have to know how to run it. I have one on the back of a WD Allis, and it works great. I have a different one with a straight auger on another WD. The ARPS is a cheap way to go if a budget is a issue. Every farmer will tell you they do not work, so I'm always looking for those kind of deals.
They do not work for drifts over three ft. if you intend on a one pass ordeal.
The trick is to raise the blower off the surface a few inches so the snow does not slide. Then make another pass to clean up. So far this winter I have not had to do the second pass, just in real wet snow, so far not the case this winter.
I have a loader with a snow bucket on the front so the 1/2 inch snow, I push into a windrow, then blow it.
I can't imagine anyone blowing with any blower with out live power.
My other blower only comes out in real deep, three ft storms.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
