Snow Equipment Owning/Operating Pictures of your snow weapons

[K man]

Well, it is raining cats and dogs here today so no snow moving for a while. My babies are sitting nice and cozy in the garage waiting for the next snow storm.

This is the first year I can recall that I have not had to clear snow yet. We typically get 135” a year. I was going to get a 3pt blower to augment the plow truck but decided to wait as funds are short.

I have blown /plowed my driveway 3 times already this year only because of these little snowstorms of 3 inches at a time. Snow, rain, snow, rain etc just enough to drive you crazy lol. Today it is raining and it will be mild all weekend with no snow expected till maybe after Xmas.

Haha, my old MF is a gasser, it almost starts before I turn the key! But even still, I wouldn’t want to deal with those temps!

We've had very little snow either. Only "had to" clear my driveway once so far, and really that was just for "fun". Only a few inches that drifted a bit over 6" in spots. Been a strange winter for us so far, really warm and no snow.

Very nice! I also run an HLA 2000 blade, and really like it.

Our place is a vacation house so a contractor usually plows our 700’ driveway. So we use the FEL with Edge Tamers for cleanup and plowing when he is away.

The tractor has R4 which are not great in snow. We grooved them, which helped some, but it would have been smarter to put studs in.

So this season we bought Ofa Eko [studded] chains for the rear, and ATV diamond studded chains for the front. Made a HUGE difference in how much snow we can push, and traction in the woods.

don't be shy in getting your wife behind the wheel, she will enjoy it as well. see pics different tractors... same wife

I need to teach my wife on how to use my tractor. It would come in very handy at times. My daughter is capable of using my tractor.

Well I used my sander today to spread some ashes, had two full cans of coal ash and 1/2 inch of sleet and slop.

Coal ash is not a good thing to be spreading around your property. You should find a place way out of the way to dispose of it away from people, animals and water.
