Was day dreaming about ways to run a snowthrower on the front of my JD 1070 tractor. I've got the mid PTO and the quick attach FEL bucket that JD offered back in the 90's, so it is quick attach but not like the modern tractors/skid steer type. So if I converted a used three point snowthrower to fit my FEL arms could I potentially run it from my mid PTO? The RPM's are 2100 from the mid PTO so would that need to be reduced somehow? What RPM does a "typical" snowthrower turn at - 540 like the rear PTO? Other issues - like would the drive shaft be too long or be out of position.
Thanks for input, just thinking up projects to begin working on.
