Grading Nice blade for LA402 tractor owner that needs one

[Tim_in_IA]

Hi I had been talking to this gentleman about a curtis blade he has that looks like new and he had special mounts made for an LA402. I think he's asking $800. I have no connection to him other than looking at his craigs list ad. I don't think it will work for my LA352 so I am passing it on to the group. I think he is in Ohio.

Tim,

I just put that Curtis plow on my 7610 last week. Works awesome! I have front hydralics, so I converted it to a power angle. I had been using a Paynes clamp on plow, but found out why you need a trip edge/spring return blade.. Next up, I converted a 7 1/2' Fisher plow with power angle to clamp-on style. Tractor had enough power to lift it, but is was at the max capacity, and didn't like plowing with the backhoe on.

I'll take some pics tomorrow and post them. I paid $800 for mine, and had a friend reweld the mounts to fit my loader.

A 60" blade would be better suited to a smaller FEL than a 402. When angled it would be just outside front tires and leave rear tires going threw unplowed snow. The brackets are easy to cut loose and weld in a new location.
