I have a mid mount mower, under my JD855. I thought the extra weight would help, come plowing time. We got 5 - 6" of snow Friday, with some 2 foot drifts, thanks to the Iowa winds.
I'm using a rear blade, turned backwards, unless the front bucket is needed. Not using my chains yet. The weight probably does help, but the dang mower catches a TON of snow before the rear blade can plow. I'm gonna have to try and remove it (now that it's nice and cold and full of snow).
