Let's be honest here: traditional snow blowers can most definitely be a pain. They won’t always start, they get stuck, and man, is it a pain to get new parts sometimes. Your Teryx H2 fixes all those problems in one shot. The good news is, you've got a more-than-capable engine already that will start reliably in any weather, four-wheel drive that will chug along through whatever, and heated cab options that keep you comfortable while everyone else is freezing. Plus, the H2 is very smooth and controlled in how it cranks out power, which is no small thing when you're trying to throw snow exactly where you want it instead of all over the neighbor's car. Best of all, when spring finally peeks around the corner, you can just detach the blower and your H2 goes right back to trail duty like nothing happened.
Snow blower sizing isn’t exactly rocket science: bigger plows clear more snow per pass, with the obvious downside of being a good deal heavier (and requiring more power). A four-foot unit will work great for driveways and smaller areas where your ability to pivot and move around is a top priority. Add six inches when you've got a bigger driveway or larger area to clear (without making a hundred passes). Finally, the 72-inch monsters are for serious commercial work or huge driveways where maximum efficiency beats everything else. Engine power matters just as much as width. 15hp engines handle normal snowfall just fine, but when you're dealing with wet, heavy snow or really deep accumulations, the 22hp Honda motors give you the grunt to power through without bogging down. The Versatile Plus models give you good all-around performance that handles most conditions you'll run into, while Premium units add features that make tough conditions easier to deal with. Don't go overboard on size if you don't need it, but don't get stuck with something too small to handle your worst-case scenarios either.
Having it is just the first step; using it well is the key to getting the most out of your H2 blower and avoiding any undue damage or other issues. For example, whenever you can, you definitely will want to start blowing before accumulation gets out of control. While you’re operating the H2 blower, make sure to keep your engine RPMs steady throughout. If you try to sprint though a section of tough snow, you are likely to just bog everything down. Adjust your throwing angle as needed before, not during each pass so you don’t have to make any panicky on-the-fly maneuvers. Finally, maintenance is absolutely a must for keeping everything running as it should and preventing unnecessary wear. Take the time consistently to check out your belts, fittings, and whether or not anything is loose!

Will a snow blower attachment hurt my H2's performance during the rest of the year?
Not at all. These things mount and dismount pretty easily, so you can run your blower all winter and take it off come spring without any permanent changes to your machine. Most attachments use standard mounting systems that don't mess with your H2's normal operation when they're not installed.
What can I realistically do in one pass?
Weather specifics and your blower size will affect this, but generally, you can take on at least a foot to a foot and a half of snow without too much strain.
Do I have to prep anything on my H2 before installing a snow blower?
Just your basic winter prep: clutch, belt, a heater if you need, etc.
