Few more pics of the 2026 snow removal duties. Finally installed the 2 LED lights on the OTC Cab, a world of difference trying to get @Raven out to work at 6 15 am in the morning. I usually start plowing around 4 30 to 5 am. Tractor had 383 hours in 2018 when I bought it, now a little over 650.

With the weight box on the turfs work extremely well. Never had an issue Jim. Have only used the diff lock one time. Very pleased with them. I spoke with several people about turfs because I wanted R 4's and they all talked me into turfs for my usage. No chains either.

Does it have the short stub by your foot that you step on with your heel?

Most I have run have that too. What a pain and I have yet to figure out why they can't put a lever on to lock it in. Gotta be a reason since they all have it. 

My Mahindra you almost have to stand on it to get it to hold. Then the foot slips off 'cause it's so short ... Grrr

Even loaded these tires are crap moving snow. Well they work ok until a melt & refreeze happens then all ice under snow  forget it. Neighbor has a big pile of chains I'm gonna pick through and fit up. Trouble is they should be taken off for summer work and they can be a pain to put on and get tight seasonal. 

I don't have a weight box but now I leave a very heavy box scraper on.
