Is this blower safe to use on a gravel driveway? null

I would not use our snow blower on a gravel driveway, because I would be concerned about kicking up gravel and breaking some of the plastic parts. Not to mention spitting out gravel at someone ..

You can use it on whatever kind of surface you want so long as you are aware that rocks and gravel may come out of your snow shoot. Hopefully you understand all of that and direct the debris to the proper angle for safety.

No, its main clearing power is a plastic blade on the bottom, by the wheels, touching the sidewalk or driveway. The hard plastic impeller unlike an old rubber flapper blower, never touches the ground & leaves about 1/4" clearance around the housing. It can clear snow off grass but you need to tip it back enough to finely keep it off the ground (I suppose that technique could be used with gravel but it could be dangerous to humans and machines if rocks are thrown).

Hello Butererfly - We do not recommend using the product on gravel surfaces. Gravel, stones, or any loose surface material will be picked up and thrown by the snow thrower, causing damage to the unit and potentially nearby property and people.
