Hello Everyone,
I'm new to compact tractors and accesories so bear with me. I just took delivery of a new BX-1500 with a FEL and a temporary used 60 inch rear blade(until the new 72 inch Land Pride arrives). My question: is the 72 inch blade overkill for this tractor? I will be using it to plow snow in the winter and keep the 1200 ft gravel driveway in check in the summer. I live in So. Wisconsin and the snow falls have been not much to speak of lately. The dealer told me it should work fine and would cover the wheels when turned at even 45 degrees.
I've seen some posts with problems plowing with a rear blades on larger tractors. Would a 60 inch be a wiser investment. /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif
TIA
Mike
