Blow or sweep Snow ?

The key words are "light snow". Any significant amount and it would be a waste of time.

yep, light snow and a broom is better. They say up to 10 cm... I'd argue no more than 7.5. Which is close enough, but barely worth the effort - that's melt territory here.

Look at the little tonka toy how cute! I have to agree around here we'd just wait till noon and that would either melt or turn into a couple of feet. Still a neat little toy, what else can it do? Might be able to hang it in the air and use as a cow brush?????

That would do better sweeping up after they cut the grass!

I find that I can ignore 10 cm of snow. ;)
It would work very well in areas where you do not want to give ice a chance to form from trampled snow.

Thank you Tig , that's exactly what it is made for , to keep paths around shopping centers , walking tracks , bike tracks , hospitals and any other public area clear of hazards .

It was built for "light snow removal " was demonstrated in "light snow" and i stressed it was a good way to remove "light snow" .

Absolutely - didn't mean to imply differently. Just thought it is funny what levels of snow are thought in different areas - sort of like Ozzie heat would have people dying here.

Usually in centers etc people use a bobcat with a sweep attachment, or a walk behind sweep.

I guess you're just heading towards winter down under. Up here we're still a bit traumatized from the last one and are looking forward to some free heat from the sun. :)
