    Default anyone use a "Quick Attach" brand snowblower or blade

    ive been looking at the "Quick Attach" brand of attachments, and just received their catalog, The items look nice and beefy, but was wondering if anyone here has used them, and what they feel is good or bad about them.

    i like that you can buy direct from them, but then again, i cant go and look at the actual item before i buy it.

    any thoughts would be appreciated.

    I have the 84" snow blade with optional wings.

    Here's a link to my original post when I purchased it.

    I've used it for 4 seasons now and have been very pleased. The option to convert from a plow to pusher is very nice when clearing larger lots. When doing driveways I switch it back to a standard blade and angle the snow to the sides.

    Default Re: anyone use a "Quick Attach" brand snowblower or blade

    I'm running mine on a Case DX45 (45 hp HST) so I'm assuming my setup should be very similar to yours as far as power. I don't think you should have any issues with power. On occasion I have lost traction with a full pusher in deep snow but not often. I'm running loaded R4 tires without chains. My Case has two ranges with high/low in each range (range 1-low being the slowest most powerful and range 2-high being the fastest least powerful. I have always been able to plow in range 2-low and have never had to plow in range 1. Most snows here are 5-10 inches and usually not a very wet snow for reference. I always fill the pusher and overflow it before running out of power in 2-low.

    **edit - I've used it for 3 snow seasons so far, not 4.
