Snow Equipment Owning/Operating Snow Removal

[macmax55]

Hi All,
We have had about 2 big snow's where i live. I have been using the LA854 loader on my Kubota L5240HSTC to do it. I love the fact that i can stack snow, but at the same time it is killing my driveway. I am not sure if i should look into a snow pusher, loader mounted plow, regular plow, or snowblower. What do you guys suggest???????????

The more you get regularly, the better a blower looks. With infrequent snow I would just use what you already own. With occasional snow, probably some kind of plow. I am in the first category.

Cool thanx,
BTW what model is your tractor?

I use a plow the front of my FEL. I also have a 7' Woods Grader Blade on the 3 point but not shown in this pic. Works good for me on my gravel drive.

These pictures are a 18" dump we got last year.

That really cool,
who is the plow made by?

I put the plow on the tractor frame, not the FEL.
There are many different ways to do it.

I am on the look out for a 6 foot plow blade myself to make a snow pusher out of for my B7800. I do not want to give up my loader in the winter and a pusher would serve me better.

There some good second hand plows for sale,plows have adjustable shoes/skids not to tear up driveways to much.

Snow blower,lot less work also spring time clean up.

If your snows are really infrequent I'd just suggest more careful use of the loader - the long recent thread on a section of ABS pipe on the scraper edge may be an inexpensive way to start.
