This storm was worse for clearing than the last one, even though less snow. Spent a couple hours yesterday doing our drive and the neighbors' driveway entrances. The heavy wet crap is the worst kind of snow to deal with even with a blower.
I always spray some sort of lubricant beforehand on the chute, impeller and augur. It helps but the really slushy crap at the end of the drive can really cake up in the chute occasionally but I think less frequently than it would if I didn't spray anything. Like I mentioned in one of the other threads I just take it slow and push forwards every so often and let the augur/impeller throw the slush/snow out before I push forward some more. For really big hard blocks of snow left by the plow I break it down with the shovel. End of our drive always has the most slushy crap, even now a big huge frozen puddle of water in the street in front....not even close with any of our neighbors.
