Consequently, there are many features that will appeal to the average homeowner. Especially if they need to clear a lot of snow in a hurry. As a result, the powerful engine treads for great traction and flexible controls makes this machine well worth considering.

Starting with the 32-inch wide intake,  this machine can cut wide swaths across your driveway or parking lot quickly.  The variable speed transmission allows the operator to match snow load conditions. As a result, it easily slows down or speeds up as you deal with snow conditions.

There is a work light for night time operation and all controls are within hands reach of the operator.  As a result, you can operate the snow blower with one hand while redirection the chute with another.

Warranty

Honda also offers a 36-month warranty to both residential operators and commercial operators. Which is unusual in the industry. This is an electric start engine. However, there is also a recoil chord for emergency starting manually. The potential accessories that can be purchased with this snow blower machine include a snow blower cover. There is also a drift breaker kit. The size and weight of this machine coming in at 271 pounds is too heavy for most people.
