Snowblower cost for Max 22

[kootch88]

Anyone boght a snowblower for a MAx series tractor? Is there a lot of items to bolt on to mount the brackets? What is a good price for one if anyone knows?

Won't need it, we are in a draught no snow it has been canceled..:laughing: I for one hope the snow comes.

 

[kootch88]

I hope I don't need it too much this winter either, but you have to have something in Maine. We average somewhere around 110 inches I think. ( I'm actually checking that figure with one of my policyholders who is a NOAA meteorologist. Can't wait to have a lawn left to grow next Spring!!

I got a quote of $3358 out the door, complete for the 56A blower and mounting bracket if anyone is interested. I was quoted $4900 by another dealer and it sounded pretty steep, but then again I've never bought a large snowblower before.

what kind of blower is it? did you find it online?

 

[kootch88]

It is a Mahindra front mount blower 56A. I got the quote from a dealer and I also got a quote from the dealer I bought my tractor from for $4400. Quite the difference in price. He said the old price of $4900 was a guess since the prices just came out

Kootch88... Those Maine mornings are starting off cooler. Snow could fly any minute

U ready for snow yet?

BTW, did u look at any of the pull behind snow blowers? They work as u drive forward, even though they are behind the tractor...

 

[kootch88]

Yeah, they sure are getting cooler!!! I am not ready but plan on getting the snowblower in about a month. I would never do the behind blower because my neck (steel Rods in mine) would be killing me in about 5 minutes, tops!! Kind of hard to drive forward if you have 2 feet of snow while blowing too!
You ready fopr the snow? You getting a blower?

 

[madmax12]

I have a snowbear snowplow I'm hoping to chain to the bucket. Pondering rear blower, but no plan for blower at this time.

 

[kootch88]

Snowblower, chains and maybe a cab are here for my winter fun! Are you ready for snow?

A cab? Cool! Where do you get a cab for the Max series?

No heat, and he said the cabs would be $500 but who knows what he will say tomorrow.

If he doesn't remember... Just throw out the lower number you remember from the conversation...

 

[kootch88]

Funny, when I went in he forgot what he said, and I was tempted to throw out a real low number, but I couldn't do it and I gave him the correct price. I also bought a soft cab as well. All set up and ready to roll.

That is cool! Will you have pics for us? Was the cab difficult to install? Was the softcab offered, the only option available to us? Or was it one you chose compared with others? I may look into the softcab too. I'm very interested to see a pic of it. Congrats!

I put some on another thread, but here you go! It was easy to install and it is available for your machine at 500 bucks. It is the Max series cab. The photo shows a very wrinkled screen but it is not nearly as bad as it looks. I need to heat it up some to ghet the remaining wrinkles out, but it will work well, i am sure.

Looks Great! You've already got me talkin to the wife about a soft cab

 

[kootch88]

Your wife must love me! I am not sure, but I think my blower fits your tractor as well. Just so you know, I paid $3,358 which is what Dana quoted me in Waterboro so Ryan matched it. He told the kid to charge $3795 to everyone else. I am sure he would match Dana if you mentioned it.:thumbsup:
