ISnowblower is throwing snow, but also putting snow up on the machine ananda on me. When I finished one row the machine is covered with snow!
Snowblower is blowing off the snow, but it is also putting snow up on to the machine and on me. Do I have it set wrong?

There are many factors that can cause this to occur. ONE IS THE WIND, LIGHT SNOW WILL BLOW BACK OR SNEAK THROUGH HE CRACKS OF THE EXIT. if THE SNOW ON THE OTHER HAND IS WET THEN THE EXIT CHUTE WILL ALLOW THE SNOW TO DROP ON THE MACHINE. ONE WAY TO FIX THIS REQUIRES THE ADDITION OF RUBBER STRAPS, YOU WILL NEED TO DRILL HOLES IN THE IMPELLERS and attach the rubber, (this can be cut from an old tire or a floor mat or other rubber that is around 1/4" thick or more. Make the parts the width of the blades and around 2-3 " from tip to base. This will stop the snow from collecting on the walls of the blower and throw the snow farther from the blower.
sorry about the uppercase, did not know I had hit the caps lock, not a touch type person.
