hi horseman with no horse,

 

as stated in the many replies to your original post,  you need chains, period.     since the money tree is not blossoming for you perhaps you could find someone in your area that might have a set of chains.  then maybe you can barter for them.  just a thought.

Here's one place.

 

SoftClaw Rubber Tire Chains - Traction without damaging your surfaces

 

I have them on both my blade tractor and the blower tractor. I love them and find that in most cases are as good as steel. Some cases a bit better. I also need them because of an asphalt drive. I do quite a bit of dirt work in the summer. They are excellent for that too. With that being said, would I choose rubber if I didn't have the asphalt drive? No. If for no other reason the cost.

 

I’ll be damned…..I was checking out that website and realized it was a local phone number for me. Turns out that they are literally a 5min drive from my house. Guess I’ll have to swing down have a look in person

As has been stated….”it’s traction that you need!”

If you’re on grass you’ll need to get the scraper bar up by lowering the skids. 
Mine is set at around 2” above the skids. 
If you’re get some chains on that machine I think you will find it does very well.
