Grading B7610 Rear Blade Size

Ditto what Big Dad said. I have same set up and due to angle, 6 ft blade is needed to cover the tracks. Never had a horsepower problem with snow.

I'd go with the 6ft. I have a 25 hp and use a 7 foot medium duty blade and wouldn't want anything smaller. At full angle snow doesn't stop me unless I'm going up a good slope. I also use skid shoes when off the driveway in dirt and leave about a 1.5 inch gap. This lets me build up a hardpack base so I'm not digging up the grass/dirt and reduces the drag. I also have no problem with traction in the summer on dirt when the blades angled.

Well,the people have spoken!Looks like I'll recommend he get the 6 footer as long as it works on his tractor.Thank you again for your replies.

I agree with Bigdad! a 72 works perfect on my 7500, anything less would suck for clearing snow. The 7500 handles it very well!

Wish I bought a 72", I have a 60" on my 7510, When I angle the blade its a bit short.

Oh well, next time...

I agree, I have a 60" Woods blade and I wish I had the 72". The reason I can live with it because I bought it used in excellent condition for 1/2 price of a new one.
