Snowblower Front Blower For Compacts

   / Front Blower For Compacts #3  
They make these about 60 miles from my house. They make quite a few different thinks for small tractors including a real nice three point mounted forklift.

Any idea what the complete unit costs?

Seems like a nice way to hook up a front blower. Wonder how many gpm are required to operate? Also curious about price? Those boys out in ND are pretty resourceful. :thumbsup:

I like it too :thumbsup:

The industry is moving toward more fluid powered implements and less shaft-driven stuff. This one is aimed at tractors with mid pto and QA FEL - but they offer a rear pto pump too. I like that they tap into the tractor's hydraulic reservoir. Notice the nifty filter on the loader arm ! Nice rig ! Looks to be spendy.

"So simple, even your brother in law can do it". Funny stuff.

I don't see any indication of how they tap into the loader hydraulic circuit. Any clues there? Just curious as every other system I have seen like this has a separate tank setup to drive from the PTO. Totally separate from the tractor hydraulics.

I am just thinking. With their own seperate pump. They have set up a new suction port,from the tractors resivor. To the pump,then up to the distribution block on the arm. The filter has a bypass line besides the return line. These two hoses have to go back to the resivor. That's the reason for the return filter also. The new circut will not contaminate the tractors resivor. I wonder how much heat this would put into the tractor system. May have to also add oil cooler. I still like the whole idea.
