Thinking White with the TC45D

fishpick · Oct 10, 2009

Just ordered a 75" snow blower for the Blue tractor - that's a little more beef than the old 48" on the Kubota

I hate winter... but with this rig I'm at least not going to be depressed with the first snow fall.

As soon as the blower shows up here - I'll send pics along.

HEY Fishpk

Nice, there's nothing like a snowblower! My Massey with the 48" 2 stage blower does a remarkable job of clearing the driveway so your bigger unit should be better yet.

I had a 48" unit on my Kubota BX - did good... but the drive is just about 1/2 a mile... and the Bota took 2-3 trips down and back, depending on how deep the now was...

I ordered a 75" blower for the TC45... so, as much as I hate the snow... I'm looking forward to at least 1 snow fall this year!

Man, 45 hp tractor and a 75" snowblower: there's going to be a snow massacre in your driveway!!!!!

I ran a New Holland 74" rear snowblower on my TC35DA and it worked well. Worked the motor pretty good with heavy wet snow, but wouldn't be without it. Congrats on your puchase.

I got a Meteor - 75" (shot out the printout from the dealer - waiting for the manuals on delivery), single auger.

To jump to the double was about 2X the price... and with the FEL - if it ever gets that deep I can just work big drifts and then hit them with the smaller blower.
