Need to buy a Box Blade for a Deere 790 Compact, its 4wd, 30hp Yanmar. Anyhow, the width of the back tires is about 50" on the outside, Im thinking a 4' box is too small, probably need a 5', was wondering if I should go 6' or am I way too big at that point ?
Ive run a blade on several tractors over the years, mostly bigger than 50hp, so I know what Im doing, I know how not to burn up the tractor, just looking for some real world feedback on a smaller tractor.
The use is annual cleaning up of the lane (about 600' of gravel), and general smoothing out of black dirt around the house and buildings. Pretty light duty use, thats why Im wondering if maybe I cant get away with a 6 footer ?
Thanks for the input, Windy.
