Front blade on a ZTR

[Gaspasser]

Has anyone had any experience with mounting a snow blade or front blade on a ZTR? Specifically a Toro model.
I have a long drive way and it's a lot of shoveling.

No personal experience but I know that the manufacturer of my ZTR, Country Clipper, offers a snow Push Blade for their ZTRs.

Common opinion on various discussion boards I've been on, though, seems to be that a ZTR would be a bit too light to be able to get the traction needed for pushing anything more than a very light snow.

Thanks for the info. I did wonder about the weight of the machine and the problem you mentioned.

Yes a company in Johnson City, TN makes Snow Plows for ZTR mowers.

Well with 20 acres you might have or be in the market for an ATV w/4WD and a snow blade,That is what I ended up doing I bought used ,Just an idea? /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif But it will push some serious snow /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif and easy to manuever around .
