A few weeks ago my neighbor saw me pulling snow off my roof with a regular roof rake. He loaned me his "Roof Razor" and it was a real time and shoulder saver.
It looks like a two foot wide by eight inch high cheese slicer with a wheel on each side and a 10 foot long slick plastic tarp attached to the cutter bar. You push the razor through the snow and the loose snow slides down the tarp. After a bit you learn the timing to roll it back as the snow slides down the tarp until the bottom end of the tarp reaches the edge of the roof so the snow will drop off the roof without having to drag the snow to the roof edge.
While the razor is low you reposition it for the next cut and you push it up into the snow again to take the next slice. It was a lot easier than hoisting my long wooden pole roof rake up over the top of the snow and then pulling the snow down to the edge of the roof.
I haven't bought one yet but here's the information that was on the lable: Roof Razor www.MinnSNOWta.com (218) 365-6000. The website shows a video of one being used.
There are different sizes and they are not cheap at over $100. The neighbor bought his a couple of years ago on ebay. Amazon.com also sells them now for less than the manufacturer's online price.

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
