How do you plow snow?

We don't get the "real" snow here very much. Primary tool is the 8' Fisher on the L4240. Third function for left/right. The blower was sold along with the L3200 I had because it wasn't a good fit for the plowing I do.
I like that underslung plow principle.

I usually enjoy removing snow. Not today. Heavy wet snow. Trees down everywhere. Hidden branches in the snow. No frozen base. Broken shearpin. A pain to clean up afterward. Bah Humbug

Still took care of all of the neighbors

My new 6' snowpusher worked excellent in this wet heavy snow with a rubber scraper. Didn't curl NEARLY as much turf as I usually do with my 86'' Dozer blade (That I'm selling). Will use this until I have inverted snowblower surface to work with. Did I mention it is MUCH faster workflow with this pusher.

We're under a winterstorm watch for tomorrow into Friday.
Well, depends on which weather i watch. Some show minor snow, some show no snow but rather rain. One shows neither. Guess ill have to wait and see.

I have all my winter snow gear set up to install on the tractor, but havent done it yet. I dont like damaging the roads with the chains, which happens if i install them too early. I may go ahead and install the hydraulic power pack and hoses on the tractor this wekend….well see.

The latest one we had, with predictions of up to 18 inches, resulted in about 1/4".

So glad I got the snowblower and plow out of the shed for that.

You know what would have happened if you didn't
