    snow blower

    Not for a tractor but. At an auction today, a wide tracked walk behind snow blower with 9 HP, electric start, power steering, forward and reverse that runs sold for $45. I would have had some interest but it would just take up too much room in my garage. I got a set of 4 aluminum...

    Snow and all weather cabs

    Has anyone else found covermytractor.com for their tractors? They have a lot of soft cabs, covers, and canopies for different manufacturers and models. They even have things for skid steers, wheel loaders, and excavators. If anyone has any information or feed back on them, I would appreciate it...

    For the folks with no snow...

    We are right at 300" so far this year. I will put up a few pics. The first one is of my house and you can see where my Mini Aussie Barney got up there and walked around a while. We had two storms that were 78" and 59". I run a snow blowing route of 79 driveways. I am hoping it quits soon. Enjoy...

    Playing in the snow with the B and RTV

    Just out doing more cleanup in my yard. Love the blower on the RTV! I can't believe how it throws snow for only being 26 horsepower! Now that I see how good it works, I took the blower off the B and finally got to use my hydraulic rear blade. And both are so good on fuel. I've filled them once...

    Rear snow blower viewing question

    Wondering if anyone has a suggestion for viewing with a rear mounted snow blower. b3200 kubota with a soft cab. I have an inside wide angle mirror but it doesn't work that well :( Possibly another version would? But when the wind is blowing along with the blower, it's sometimes a whiteout which...

    I think I'm going to need snow removal equipment

    The place we bought in Oregon got about 10-12" of snow last week. We were up there and were able to drive up the driveway when there was about 8" but then it snowed more over night. A contractor in a 4wd truck got stuck after we left and then the GC brought a skid steer in to clear it. No one...

    Snow capable three peak LT tires

    This week we drove to our place in Oregon. The whole area got a lot of snow, passes were closed for time and had chain controls when open, etc. The GX460 (basically a 4runner with V8 and full time four wheel drive) did great. Packed snow, ice, fresh powder, whatever. I didn't even lock the...

    Snow Blowing With The RTV

    Is the K-Connect blower overpriced? YES. Do I love it? YES!! LOL This thing is a blast to run! It was great with the Boss plow on it, but for me I think this is even better. I've never put ballast, but I had to bring firewood to house, so figured I'd just leave some in the dump box. Will only...

    South Louisiana Snow Pics!!!

    (new to me) Snow removal setup: Front blower, blade combo on L5740

    I also posted this over on Orange Tractor Talks. For my TBN users, I wanted to share my new snow setup on my L5740. Totally overkill for most snow weather events here in Maryland, but it's "nice to know you can." Luckily we just had a couple decent snow events so I was able to test everything...

    Using snow blade with rubber edge

    Inexperienced snow mover here who is dealing with snow in SW VA after two snowless winters in a row. So I'm also rusty.

    Mini skidder in snow

    Didnt think it would work but it does, so far. Have 3 blades I am going to make up brackets for so I can use them on this unit. one is a vee , an atv mini state plow, and an old gravely straight blade that would move dirt too.

    80" of snow this week.

    I expect most have heard of the snow storm in Upstate NY. I am in the place you read about. My house got 80" in a few days. It was pretty intense. I run a Kubota M6-111 hooked to a Cyclone 92" inverted blower. I hear everyone saying the inverted is no good in deep snow. Maybe it is not the...

    Plowed Snow - Yanmar Content

    I Stink At Removing Snow From My Gravel Driveway

    Here in Virginia we are having our 2 x per decade decent snow event. I have a #8 brownstone driveway and I've never been very good at getting the snow off with my JD 1025R. I have a rear blade, which requires constant attention to keep from gouging. I have put PVC on my loader and use it in...

    What size snow plow?

    I recently purchased a new place and have a gravel driveway approximately 1/3 mile long. It's not flat but the hills are not too steep either. I used to plow snow at the old place with a rear blade on a Kioti CK35, this driveway is longer and I now have a Yanmar YT3589 cab. I don't expect a...

    Snow dogg UTV plow

    Yesterday I looked at a 6ft Snowdogg UTV plow that's FS near us. I'd not seen one before and I was rather impressed with its construction. This does have a stainless blade and just the bottom wear edge that trips when you strike something. Its pump, oil tank and valves are in the black box...

    Snow chains for plowing with a rear blade

    snow thrower

    the GR 2707 will work on the GR 2120, contrary to what the dealer told me. The solution to the chute handle is simple, use an eye bolt mounted on the side plastic cowling with a straight bar on the back and front to beef it up. A lot cheaper than the new thrower with the weights on the back...
