Winter Upgrade Kit for Snowblower Chute Winch

[olekid]

Greetings, installed a winch to rotate the chute, used snowblower on rear of B7510 yesterday and found when chute was directing snow to the right the winch got completely covered in snow that you could not see it. So, I added a winch cover to keep it dry, works excellent. Thought it might help someone. I got lots of ideas from OTT. I hope the pictures went through.Later

Great job! I think we have proven on this forum that there are a million ways to make the chute go around. What type of winch is that? I might be able to use it on one of my future projects.

That's definitely a high tech cover!!
But it works!!

Great low tech mod. Only thing I think you need to do is track down some plastic friendly orange paint- then you are done.

Greetings, the winch came from Princess Auto on sale, its a 2500 lb ATV winch.


The orange plastic paint or orange duck tape LOL is on the list to pick up next time I go to town.
