BCS Single-Stage Snowblowers (snow throwers)
Don’t be fooled – these blowers, with a single stage auger that turns over 1200 RPMs, will outperform almost every two-stage walk-behind snowblower on the market (with the exception of the Berta 2-stage blowers in our lineup). Why can’t other brands do this? Simple: we have all gear drive. The power necessary to maintain this high auger RPM cannot be efficiently maintained through belts, and yet that’s how every ‘competing’ single-purpose walk-behind snowblower is built. Owners of the BCS single-stage units call them “snow cannons”, and they are not kidding! We don’t get to use these much here in Kentucky, but when I lived in Indiana, we got to use them some…it’s mighty impressive to watch a blower throw snow 30 or 40 feet! These Single-stage blowers will move up to 16” of snow in a single pass…if your average depth of snow that needs to be moved is MORE than this, then you may need a 2-stage blower.
Heat-treated gears are housed in an oil-bath gearbox and supported by ball bearings. Because the “paddles” (which are at the center of the augers, to throw the snow out the chute) project a half-inch or so past the augers themselves, these units have the uncanny ability to crush and spit out almost anything…frozen chunks of snow, ice on top of snow, wet snow, etc. All units have adjustable skid shoes on each side, which can hold the (replaceable) scraper bit on the bottom up off the ground as much as an 1.5 inches for gravel driveways. Discharge chutes are made of steel – no cheap plastic here. Chutes rotate to the right or left via a handle that extends up to operator position. The top of the chutes have an up/down discharge angle adjustment with a quick screw-knob to lock it in place at the desired angle.
Due to relatively low implement weight on some snowblower sizes, a PTO extension or implement weight may be required to properly counter-balance engine. Ask us for more info.
NOTE REGARDING SHIPPING: To reduce the chances of damage in transit, these units are shipped not-quite-fully assembled … all models will require the chute to be installed to the top (5 minutes or less).
