Mounting on bucket.

[Thomas]

"as I crawl off the hood and back into the seat"

Air bags at such times sure would be nice.

Before plowing neighbor I ask twice is there anything I should know about.."nope" that afternoon he was restringing xmas lights on the tree also lower half of his house.

Here is my mount. It has 3 seasons on it and it runs great.

Robs.
Nice setup.

Has the pin/pins bent from push snow if turning when plowing?
Chain for?..to keep/help w/stress plow frame?

 

[robs660]

I do not let the plow frame rest on the bottom of the bucket I use the chain to keep the plow about 1/2" above the cutting edge of the bucket. I have never bent or broken any pins or bolts and I have plowed snow for 3 years with the setup. I will take a few photos tomorrow of the setup.

The other nice thing about the chain is it moves part of the weight of the plow to the back of the bucket and lifts better and smoother.

2nd chain is to limit the trip springs. I will tilt the blade forward at a very aggressive angle to scrape ice without the chain I trip too much
