Sad.

Ariens, some may know, wound up owning what was left of Gravely Tractors, after Studebaker and Clarke Equipment finished gutting it.

Lawn-tractor geeks will know of Gravely. Their engineering doctrine was, "Cast Iron. When in doubt, use cast iron." Their snowblowers had no plastic chutes, no polycarb toy-shovel mounted to clear. AND no auger-release handle. To disengage the snowblower, you either shut the tractor down, or you moved to the attachment boss casting and turned a T-handle lever 180 degrees. Disengaging the blower was simple, but ENGAGING it, quite the act. You wanted to wear thick gloves; or, if you were like me, you'd start it, warm it up, and then shut it down, engage the attachment drive, but keeping the transmission in N (not a total disengagement; it creeped, because of cone clutches) and then started it up.

Not with a push button. With a leather strap.

The thing was WORK to use, but it would last longer than its owner. Ariens has completely abandoned what knowledge and design-rights they purchased with the company.
