My face is red... I wasn't even thinking or mid driven PTO.
I am looking for a 5-6' Blower with Quick attach mounting that can run well on 19GPM fluid.
See my post on the front mount blower.

We've had a few small snows but nothing that's needed plowing yet so I haven't put my blade on yet. I'm still hoping for a little dry weather to get some grading done with the box blade.

my quick attach blower runs on 15 GPH, but its bumped up to 3,000 psi. most tractors run around 2,000 psi from what i gather

To put that into perspective, that 15GPM at 2,000psi, puts out the equivalent of 17hp.

That same 15GPM at 3,000psi puts out the equivalent of 26hp.

Pressure makes a big difference.



I got these numbers from an online hydraulic hp calculator. Hydraulic Horsepower Calculator

Going by the numbers my CK 30's hydraulic pumps 12.79 gpm at 2000 psi 14.50 hp. That does not sound that great. My front mounted 66" dual stage blower raises and lowers pretty darn fast as does my FEL. Confused a bit here lol

grsthegreat has a PTO powered hydraulic pump and separate hydraulic reservoir. You don't want to be powering implements like snow blowers from your tractor, it will overheat the hydraulics. Construction equipment is built for it, but tractors are not.

But GPM, not GPH ??

That was a mistake, I've been thinking too much of MPH lately....

I'll edit the original post to clear up the confusion :D


Edit: I'm sure Grsthegreat made the same mistake, and meant GPM (Gallons per minute) - Too many darn acronyms :laughing:

Quick Attach I've been looking at all their stuff. Same with 'Everything Attachments' My tractor is a hybrid. Construction type with the option to take off the backhoe and use PTO. The FEL has a Quick mount and an Aux hydraulics that should handle A blower full time without a separate pump.
