Anybody using a snow plow on their Bobcat? Any suggestions on make? Is a 3rd function kit going to be required?
angling a loader mounted snow plow is risky business.Anybody using a snow plow on their Bobcat? Any suggestions on make? Is a 3rd function kit going to be required?
I use a plow on mine, I personally don't like it, I actually want a frame mount plow so I can take off the loader. If you want it hydraulically angles yes you need a 3rd function, or can Manually angle it but that's too hard.

Newbie question.
First tractor. Plan to cinch Snowbear winch lifting (plan to remove/disable winch), manual angle, plow into the bucket. It would ultimately look like your setup (except bucket still on, and plow chained to it)
Can u be more specific as to why you want the loader removed from the equation? I was thinking the loader provided an unlimited ability to pile the snow to the sky.
Heres a pic of a "test" hook up... not the straps I plan to use...
Appreciate your insight, as you have (negative?) experience with what I was looking forward to doing.

To easy to tweak the loader arms, they are not built for it
I am with Cat, get a frame mount if you want one, Bobcat makes one
