Looking to get an opinion from the Gade experts...
I'm looking into buying a used Gade, 500 or 800 whatever I find that I can afford.
First: Any known problems w/ these machines or years to avoid?
Second: Thinks to look for or questions to ask when buying a used one? Any known weaknesses?
Third: Has anyone on here tried plowing with them? I would like to be able to plow my driveway out in the winter and the wife says I can put snowblower money to this instead!
And if you have plowed, how does it do? Will the 500 push snow or do you need the 800?
Thanks for the responses in advance... I'm looking forward to getting one of these machines, but need some help first!
Thanks
Tony
