Plow size

[Jonathan70]

How big a plow are you guys putting on the front of a tractor for snow removal ? Have a 2538 Mahindra ,,, looking @ a 7?6 used plow to adapt to my new Titan QA / 3 pt hitch set up for my FEL...

The highest percentage of people would use an 84" wide blade for a Mahindra 2538.

I have a 10' box pusher....5083E JD. I had as big as a 96" plow on a sub-frame mount for an L3400. I had some issues pushing that uphill with one set of chains and loaded rears.

I run a similar size tractor and adapted a 7' 6" truck plow to a QA plate and ran hyd. lines from one rear remote to the front for power angle. Also run a 7' blower on the back.

Plow angle at 45 degrees should clear rear tires least 6" so they say...start at 7'6".

I run a 7' 6" Meyer plow on my tractor. Used to be on a Ford Ranger. I'm also in CT, saw a plow on CL in MA that looks good. If the hydraulic cylinders work, it would make a great plow for a tractor.

7' electric plow - farm & garden - by owner - sale

We go to Torrington when we go into "town".

I think you will be fine.

Just take smaller bites if necessary.

The issue is going to be pushing the tractor sideways. Running at full angle, and the plow a good ways ahead of the front axle....has alot of lateral leverage. But again, you can just take smaller bites.

I use a 7'6" Diamond unit with my Titan 3PT QA on my LS XR4140 unit. Its more than capable. If I had the option again, use the same size plow.
