Roadbuilding with the B2620

[Paystar]

Couple pics of the first phase of repairing my bushroad washouts. Very impressed with the little B.
Tires aren't loaded and it pulls a loaded 60" box blade full of loamy sand up the hill no problem at 2000 RPM. I thought for sure I was going to have to bring the bulldozer home, didn't think the tractor would be able to do it.
Between this and my driveway, I worked 6.5 hours straight and still had over half a tank of fuel!

I didn't get pics of it working yet, but the 60" hydraulic angling blade really works good too. I can pull material in from the sides, and it levels really nice and smooth in reverse.
And the Agri-Ease clamp on forks work good for moving my maple logs around.
I'll have pics later on working on the big hill, but I had to quit because of heavy rain. I will have to go re-repair it all again as I didn't get any ditching done yet.

It looks good! You're doing a lot. I like the "before and after" picture where you can see the deep ruts in front of the tractor and how smooth the road looks behind the box blade.

You are getting that thing to do some good work. It amazes me what you can do with them. Great photos

A capable tractor with a good operator. It is amazing what a compact tractor can get done.

Thanks for the pictures. The rear hydraulics must really be a treat when doing that kind of road work. I haven't decided on them yet. Will any rear blade adapt, or does one need a special rear blade for such hydraulic add on? Around my place, those side mirrors and top mounted ROPS lights wouldn't last long....mostly due to the operator.

Might have to buy some mousetraps or a cat. The mice in your woodpile have put up a satellite antenna!

What's all that white stuff in the first set of pictures? Playsand? Lime?

Looking good.
