Snow Attachments Cool Pics from last Winter. :)

Thanks. Good old simple reliable set up.

Have you got pics of your loader mounted hydraulic blower??

Had a pull type blower for years, and never once got stuck.

With the mountains of snow we got when I was a kid, that meant something. Anyway, may go pull type on the next blower again.

yup..here goes
I looked into the pull type, but it wouldnt work for my horse stalls.....cant drive into them and blow. its the way there set up. I was also worried cause a few times weve had 36" of snow overnight, and not sure what id do then.

I'm sure, other than the price... that is a darn nice rig!!!

Will, have you priced out these pull type units from Lucknow? Wondering what they cost.

 

[grsthegreat]

I know that the pull behind units from "quick attach" are $4,895 for a 60" and $5,795 for a 78". There not cheap, but built like a tank.Hydraulic chute rotation adds $300.

It might have been cheaper :laughing: We are looking at where we want our house... vs. where we can get to in the winter time. I hope global warming gets here soon... j/k

well i looked at getting a very heavy duty rear driving (rear push) snow blower for my new tractor and was getting quotes in the 6000 - 7000 range for a WELL built, USA made unit. This set up ran me 14,000 but i now have a rear powerpack that can power future front mount post hole diggers and other thingies im thinking about playing with.... like front mount mower.

Isn't that the truth. Going backwards didn't seem that bad for the first ten or so years. Tired of it now though. Having the blower out front and a heated cab makes winter enjoyable again:thumbsup:

Here are a few while we got a huge storm and I was trying to keep my trails clean for sugaring season. If I let it get to deep I can't get to the top of my property. This was with the trusty B7200HST.

wow just from your pictures your property must be awsome! I have a trusty 7510 and know these are some of Kubota's best machines.

Thanks! Those aren't too bad. Shipping should be lower for me as these are made in Ontario. I imagine these prices are before taxes?

Curious as to why you didn't get the hydraulic deflector? To be honest I have not had the need to adjust my manual one in years. Any idea how much it added to price?

On the Farm King Y series,the same bracket for them all, the bracket was $90, a cylinder and two 1/4" hoses from princess auto, maybe $250 max. We added it ourselves after we got the 1635. The bracket came from Connect.

My DK35 just has one rear remote hydraulic connection which I will use for the chute rotator. The dealer thought a rough price to add the 2nd remote would be $500. Then I would need to add the deflector cylinder. So I thought I'd wait and see how the manual deflector works.

If I decide I need a remote deflector I will also consider an electric linear activator such as these at Princess Auto:

What ever you do, if you have an enclosed cab...dont use a manual rotator. The shop where i purchased my cab tractor was busy replacing the rear window in a cab tractor cause the owner didn't think he needed a hyd rotator. Forgot to check before he raised it up and the arm shattered the rear glass. It cost WAY more than a rotator would have.

Princess auto is da bomb!

You most certainly are in your glory in that pic!!!

We didn't have too much snow last winter...just a few lighter (<6") accumulations...so, no outstanding action pics, I'm afraid.

But this was my first winter with the 4400 and chains, so here's a pic.

Boy you do look quite happy in that picture, I too just love going out on a snow filled quiet morning plowing and blowing snow.
