Snow blower test

I used the snow blower for the first time this winter in a foot of snow. Yes it had lots of power, too much , the wheel base is too wide and cant drive through the snow it wants to ride up over it. I need to fasten some wings to the side of the blower to get the wheels to dive through the snow ,not up onto it. That was the only issue other than the fact that the carburetor needs a good cleaning , its running too rich and will stall when it gets warm. plenty of power to move the snow.
