snowblowing with 8hp

Recommended Posts

Was wondering if anyone has snowblowed with a c-81 or compariable hp tractor before with and 8spd. Just thought a good snow would bog the motor down to much to blow snow with a single stage.

I used the C-81 with a blower. it worked but it was in low range most the time and that engine was snorting hard. I took the side wings off the blower. After that year I got more tractors with more HP.

I have a two stage which I will be doing most of my blowing with. Was just thinking about using it when there wasnt enough snow to bring the two stage out.

I pushed snow for years with a Charger V8, short frame 42" plow and rear tire chains. If you're looking for something to use when there isn't a lot of snow, I would suggest doing that.

8hp is plenty to push snow with a blade,but a little small for a blower,Rick
