- Case DX40
I am adapting a Meyer ST7.5 to the quick attach of my Case DX40. As you all probably know, in the usual truck attachment of that plow, the plow pivots at the truck attachment point and uses a chain for lifting the blade.
Almost every quick attachment plow for FEL's I have seen uses a rigid attachment to the quick attach plate(s). I assume one then plows with the loader in the float position, but I am not sure of that. At this point, since I haven't cut or welded anything yet, I can weld the A-frame of the plow to the quick attach plate or attach it using a clevis arrangement so it pivots.
Any opinions?
Is being able to apply down force on the plow an advantage?
Is plowing normally done with the FEL in float?
Regards, John
