Will my B100 be able to handle a Box Scraper?

I am entertaining purchasing a: Brinly BS-38BH Sleeve Hitch Tow Behind Box Scraper, 38-Inch.

Will my Kohler 10Hp and 8 Speed Trans be able to handle it?

I was going to add wheel weights 55Lb rear & 30Lb front.

I have Turf Saver tires on it currently. I'm guessing I will probably have to use AG tires?

Filled turfs, with the weights should do the trick.  :handgestures-thumbupright:

"Filled" meaning Washer Fluid or Weights?

Weights will help, but you will able to pull the Brinkly box scraper with out them.

If you need to move a lot of dirt, or hard packed, be sure to till the area first, to roughly the depth you need.  This will make it possible to move, when not using a bull dozer.

My soil isn't that hard/compacted, I start hitting sandy soil at 3 1/2 to 4 feet. 

I'm thinking wheel weights front and back as well as a concrete block on the scraper. Attempt it when the soil is moist.

 

What's the skinny on filling your tires with Washer Fluid?.......What about a tire repair with the fluid in it?

Would Carlisle Big Bites Trupower AT Tires (523367) - 23x10.50-12....Fit on my B100, original tire size is 23X8.50-12

Would they be alright to use for lawn mowing as well or will they leave a trail.
