video of bx24 with rear mounted snowblower in action

Here is a link to a video I did today of the BX 24 in about 18" of compacted snow. I was getting rid of the built up banks. If anyone is wondering about the BX performing with a snowblower, no problem. It performs very well. This is a 50" bueler that was scabbed with rust. I wire brushed it down and applied chassis saver paint, its hard as nails. Anyways, I paid $400 for the blower and about $40 in paint and a new chain for $15. It has beveled gears and no gearbox. Just as well as I see some issues that are happening to one guy with a meteor.

Hey, thanks for sharing. I have a McKee 50" that I am getting ready to hook up to mine. Your video answered my curiosity about how it will preform.

Although I have heard a lot of comments about how a snow pusher blade would not work that well with the bx24 because of its lack of HP and weight, I think a smaller pusher on the front (maybe 5'-6') and a blower on the back would be a pretty nice combination for this machine. The blower would do the heavy work and the pusher could clean things up.

The rear blower and front end loader is a great combination. I use the loader for wood and it is also great at moving banks of snow if I need to.

Nice video! Love watching what these tractors can do. Maybe I'll get some snow here in the DC area so I can play in the snow also.

Great video ! You were enjoying it so much, I thought you might clear the whole front lawn.


"Video" is definitely the new "pictures".

Great video, but it confirms to me that the front mount blower was the right decision for me.

Yes, Thanks for sharing! If I only had one machine that is what I would do also. But I have a snow blower for the LT. I need to keep the FEL on the Bota available to scrape ice and carry things so a front mount would not work well for me. Great video!

Not sure of the language, but here is another clip I saw showing a bx series rear blower in action

It does not seem to do too bad chugging through the frozen plow spoil

Wow, he's clearing fire hydrants with it. They do that here with full size backhoe/loaders.
