418-A First time plowing

[JCM 10,682]

With all this snow this year and no 44'' 2 stage set up on the 520 - H I installed the 48'' Dozer blade. I really can't believe the oomph this thing has. I'm sure the extra weight of the twin cylinder helps. I only put the trac weights on and not the heavier steel weights along with a nice set of 2 link chains. I was pushing at least a foot and a half of crusty snow with it. Very impressed. This is my main mower but I may have to think about using another WH for mower duties ?

Looking good Jim, but please don’t ram the piles with my future 418-A 😂😂

Snow plowing with a garden tractor is nearly all about traction. Apparently you've nailed the combo that suits your needs. 

Very nice!

Of course when I was done plowing it reassured me I could take it for a trail ride carefully without getting her stuck.

Any chance you could photoshop out that green thing in the background of the last picture?

 

It really diminishes the feng shui...

  I 'm lucky I can even post pics on here. I've had too many head injuries in my lifetime and very lucky to still function properly.
