New 20HST 5' Box Blade

[playmoore]

I just got my new CK20HST Looking at getting a 5' Box blade tommorow. Is 5'a good size for this tractor. I have been borrowing a JD 17 hp with a 4'. Also the price I found is for a Farm pride from Dell's for 599.. Am I on the right track??

Welcome to TBN and congrats on CK20HST.
5 foot should match your rear tire width...box blade should be couple inches wider than rear tires for smooth job.

Welcome to the Pack!!

A five-footer will be fine - adjust your work speed accordingly. As Thomas said, the blade should cover your tracks. I used a six-footer with a Jinma 284 (28hp) handily.

One of the best implements you can buy, not familiar with that brand, i have a woods and I like it.

Good luck and welcome to the pack,

Deputy, what kind of gun is that? I know nothing about guns, but that one looks serious.

I've only watched a guy use a 5' box blade on a CK 20, but he sure didn't seem to have any trouble running it. The soil was very good, though soddded, and I'm sure that helped. River bottom loam there.
