How far do snowblowers throw snow?

Why doesn’t my snowblower throw snow as far as it used to?
If your snowblower isn’t clearing pavement well, first turn off the snowblower and clear any snow that’s built up in the chute. A clogged chute won’t throw snow very far. A worn, stretched auger belt won’t spin the auger fast enough to throw snow off the pavement, so replace the auger belt if it’s worn.
Can snow be too deep for a snowblower?

How does a snowblower throw snow?

How do you use a snowblower in deep snow?
Run the blower at full speed but with slower forward motion for wet, heavy snow. Also, make more passes taking smaller bites in deep snow. Position the machine so that it collects less than the full width of the opening to maintain the throwing power.
Which is better 2-stage or 3 stage snow blower?
A 3-stage snow blower is technically better than a 2-stage. 3-stage snow blowers are more powerful and get the job done quicker. However, they can be more expensive, so if you require a snow blower for residential use, a 2stage might be the better option.
