I Bought this snowblower 2 years ago, I added 2 led lights a voltmeter, heated grips and an easy charge pigtail to the battery. This Machine is a beast, heavy powerful and with practice fantastic. It has one real flaw and it's really annoying. IF you are TALL and you adjust the auger height higher in order to clear or steer, it pivots the handlebars commensurately lower. This Machine is already built for a shorter person so when you pivot the front up ( which you need to in deep snow or ice to turn 180 you find your back bent over far more than you like. Fatigue creating. If you use it a lot like we need to, its a very obvious drawback. Having said that the power , reliability, controls, throw distance, traction all shine... Honda please make a bar riser kit. BTW in VT deep snow never once had clogging issue... try spraying the chute with silicone a few coats. Dupont makes a snowblower spray too.

Nope, I am five foot tall, kills the back to have the auger up for transport!

Bought this for my small back deck in the Eastern Sierra. kzfaq.infoUgkxoHYZbq5g9fkcAtinlTqstNlje-UQkCHN We get A LOT of HEAVY snow so I was a bit skeptical but it was worth it! After the first storm of the year this has exceeded expectations! It throws snow very well, even 10-12” + that said the more it piles up the harder it is to maneuver the machine. It is exceptionally light weight and overall exactly what I was looking for. If you have a large amount of snow and a lot of area to clear, you may consider something with a drive engine to help maneuverability, but for decks, second stories, roofs etc, you can’t beat the light weight to great snow throwing ratio. Side note, the chute rotator is a bit flimsy and it initially didn’t seem to work, after a few uses it seems to have loosened up.

You guys need to put a factory oil drain hose on the engine.. This is the top of line snowblower that we pay good money for here.. Come on honda..

Fold a piece of card board or heavy paper to create a ramp for the oil to drain... Jezzzzzz. It may be called a Mcgiver but a little thought goes a long way. Plus if Honda included one, it would probably cost you $100

The thing that’s odd about Honda snowblowers is that they don’t have grease fittings on auger shaft. I’ve never seen one. Every other snowblower I’ve seen has them

Cub Cadet doesn't have them either. Sealed units

1:48. The oil drain extension is woefully short leading to an unavoidable mess. Best solution is to purchase a rubber hose extension that can direct the oil into a suitable continer. Leave the hose connected to the motor at all times.

I use a funnel attached to a hose to drain the oil.

I drain from the fill port by tipping the snowblower and pouring into an oil drain pan - our local Honda rep actually showed me that - less mess and no need to replace the drain plug crush washer

@douglasmichel6361 3 жыл бұрын

I fold a piece of cardboard to form a small ramp for the oil to reach a pan. Not a drop get on the machine.

@PJ-nw3zy 3 жыл бұрын

use a waste oil can with manual suction pump and hose attached. Stick it in the fill port.

Honda, man, come on. 1:56 look at that oil change demonstration. Some of the drainage is escaping along the edge of the pan and will be dripping down the tracks. Where's the 2" rubber hose extension? Cheaped out? Include the damn hose!

You'd think with a price of over $4000 you'd get a full pressure oil system with a proper filter.

@KF1 2 жыл бұрын

And that they would include a .50c rubber hose extension so you don't accidentally get oil down the side of the tracks. 1:56 that's not good enough. Oil is going to drip down the side of the pan really quick. Where's the simple hose extension?

Stay away from the overpriced HSS928 and HSS1332. My HSS1332 has been a clogging nightmare and I regret the day I spent over $3,300 to *upgrade* from my Toro PowerMax which never clogged for the 14 years I've used it.

Do you have the modified chute?

@samirrustagi3236 4 жыл бұрын

Wow, not sure why your blower keeps clogging. Is the secondary working properly. We average over 400 inches of snow and very often it is wet and heavy. I have been using Honda snow blowers for over 20 years and I have never had the chute clog up. All I can say is operator error. BTW, everyone in our development only owns a Honda because nothing else really gets the job done.

We had 8" of heavy wet snow this weekend. The first part of the snow, the water was literally dripping out so my blower kept clogging, no surprise. Later in the day, when the water had a chance to drain, I could then blow without clogging. The snow was so heavy, it was doing a number on my lilac trees. I was then able to use my snowblower to blow snow from my lawn onto my lilac's which helped to remove the snow load from them. I am talking about throwing the snow at least 30'. And the snow was still pretty wet and heavy. So no complaints on my part. In the 3 years I have owned it, it has been a lifesaver.

Definitely get the upgraded chute - should be a warranty item - I got it for my HSS928 and it made a big difference. I live in Truckee CA and we usually get 100s of inches of marine moisture snow (Sierra cement) so it can be very wet

@@cycle11111 looking to buy the HSS928 this year. What’s the difference with the upgraded chute design? Has it been changed for the newer models when purchased now?
