pfrederi 17,147 #90 Posted November 13, 2020 (edited) OK a few hours early...but meet Cyclops. Richard, 953Nut @953nut should recognize her. Spent the last couple years on loan to a neighbor mowing his 2.5 acres. This year he bought a new Kubotoa 2601 with deck and FEL (about $20k) so she was excess. I didn't need another mower but I did need a Paver Plow Tractor.. 98% of what i plow is dirt. However there is about 60 ft of pavers and the other half prefers they not be scratched up. Some PO painted her black and since painting is not something i like she stays that way.. Added a LED head light (she never had lights) fitted front mount to have a plow aligning pin and added some front weight. Can't use my normal roller chain. Rear has rubber chains and 65 lbs weight on each wheel.. Added a Wheel horse parts and more receiver hitch, (have to find some more weights to hang on it), and added a poly plastic blade edge. The light is a single but it is really really bright. (Note in 20 years i have plowed snow twice after sunset... once just to check out some new LEDs I put on my main plow tractor.. You can't beat Charger/Electros for winter duty. Edited November 13, 2020 by pfrederi 4 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Eric, I made one that locks in on the front quick attach mount on my 520; basically two pieces of 1/2" round-stock welded together to form a big T. It definitely made the plow more stable but made me realize I need more weight up front. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Front weight on that one won't be an issue because of the oversized liquid filled front tires. Trina's tractor has no weight yet but I do have some to put on. I just need to build a bracket and I like the idea of having to stabilizer there as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All my tires are filled and have weights on them, and despite the M18 up front, I still find myself needing more weight to push snow and turn. The next step for me would be swapping out the reversed ags in favor of tri-ribs. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
