I just brought this blower home today. It was seized when I got it, which made me hope the bearings are still tight. I removed a mouse nest and got it to turn, then put some oil on it. It rolls OK but there is still some drag to it. I think I haven't gotten oil to the front bearing yet. I intend to tear it down and give it a deluxe paint job this winter. I have been wanting another blower since selling the last one I had and regretting it. It's a bonus that it is from A B Jardine in Hespeler Ontario.
