Snow B26 66" light material loader bucker

[lhansman]

I do not want to put a plow on the loader of my B26 because I have heard that an angled blade could bend the loader arms. I am considering purchasing the 66" light material bucket for my B26. Have any B26 owners out there purchased this bucket?

Have you used it in snow and if so how did you find it?

I have no snow moving experience. But I think an angled blade would be much more useful. I often drive into piles of dirt and rocks loading a full bucket and then push as much additional material as possible to spread it. If I can do that with hard materials I cant imagine snow causing a problem.

But if you run into a light pole or concrete or steel with a blade on your FEL I can certainly see that causing a problem.

I have a B26 and have a 60" 4n1 60" smooth bucket and a 66" front blade that came off a F series front mower and I welded it to a QA for the front loader it works good but it will slide the tractor around when backfill behind the trencher but on snow it works really well. I would think a truck blade would be to heavy.
