AS my friend Art has so well detailed;
It is not a good idea in your neck of the New England wilderness period.
How many rear hydraulic outlet pairs do you have?? you should have two at least pairs
of hydraulic outlets But one pair will suffice for the rotation function only.
The purchase of a rear mount snow caster for the tractor is a much
better choice as you are dealing with heavy wet snows in Vermont.
I would rather see you purchase a Pronovost two stage snow caster from
Art for your use as the snow caster will outlast your 5740.
The other issue is you need to have
ballast fluid added to the rear tires and
you need snow chains.
There are many types fo snow and ice chains available in many styles and
its best to talk to your neighbors about the type of snow and ice you will
have to deal with. AND its better to spend more money up front do you
have zero issues later on.
