Kubota 64" 3 Point Hitch Blower (Model BLMX3164)

[Backlight]

Local dealer has a Kubota 64" 3 Point Hitch Blower (Model BLMX3164) for sale. I can't find anything about it on the Kubota site. Does anyone have one of these units that can provide a review? Should I be considering Kubota blowers or perhaps something else?

Thanks for your help!

What's yer tractor and who's the dealer?

Have a Kubota B2789 rear blower for my BX25, and it is deadly. Do you need 64"?

Kubota has a habit of re-branding another manufacturer's snow blower with orange paint and labels.
Years ago it was McKee blowers. Today I don't know.
If you look around enough you will probably find one from a Canadian manufacturer which looks identical except for the colour.
It is likely a well built unit from a reliable company.

Not sure I need a 64", other option is a 51". I have a B26TLB, thought the blower should cover the width of the tractor? Maybe 64" is too big.

Thanks Dave! I'll have to do some more research...

A friend of mine just bought a 60" Kubota blower for his L4400, it is inside his rear tire width, I suspect he will wish he went bigger the first time he uses it.

Make sure it covers your rear tires width or you'll be very sorry.I have a LP2674 for my L3540 and it's the bomb through deep snows.

I am pretty sure that Rad Technologies in Thetford Mines, Quebec makes snowblowers for Kubota and John Deere. They are a good blower, not quite as good as a Pronovost or Normand, but much better than most of the others. Rad also sells blowers under the Ber-Vac brand. McKee made blowers for John Deere and Kubota but that ended a long time ago.

My 51" Kubota blower is a RAD Technologies. I'm happy with it, and it does cover the tire width of my B2620, but I wish I went bigger.
I can take a full height and width cut and it doesn't labor my engine at all.

Don't forget that you can get wings for these things as well. I am picking up some wings tomorrow from Kubota North in Bracebridge, and they will add about 3 inches or so to the width of my rear blower. And to be sure, the B2789 has never run out of power, and my Kubota BX25 only has something like 17.5 hp on the rear PTO.
