Snow Equipment Owning/Operating Pictures of your snow weapons

[Dead Horse]

It's a Kubota B2782A 63 inch with the B2791 Quickhitch/subframe and the B2792 mid-pto kit. I bought them used - two years old - around $3800.

Nice find!

I would like to find a rig like that for my 3710. I have the mid mount PTO on the tractor.

Used stuff of any quality is hard to come by now adays.......... and the new stuff is stupid expensive. It is no wonder to me that new tractor dealerships are hurting.......

Von I was looking at the connections from the control and it looks like the quick disconnects are actually at the piston on the snowblower and not at the controller? Do you use the same hoses for the FEL?

Just curious as I am getting ready to hook up my plow and it comes with the lines and the quick disconnect fittings, but my FEL has the quick disconnects right at the controller.

I am sure you will enjoy blowing snow this winter and then next summer you will be out looking for a cab! LOL

Here is my snow weapon. I just got it painted with some leftover paint. I'm hoping to use the V plow for plowing sidewalks. I also have a straight plow for parking lots and things.

I usually get it done before deer season but the warm wether got me doing other stuff. Lucked out.

Great on the chains. You will like them.

I think they are a little more aggressive than I need and I'll be putting old plywood and rugs down to protect the cement floor.

Tandems (two axles) or on duals? Would like see a pic of the rig.

We used to take a wheel off each side to make the duals into singles during the winter. Much better traction (less flotation) with singles on snow and ice, and as well they would be easier to chain up.

Single axle dual wheels. Some guys around here call them tandem wheels. Since the truck only gets used for plowing my driveway I put the chains on in the fall and take them off in the spring.

The picture is deceiving. The hitch has its own hoses with quick disconnects at the loader valve end. At the piston end there are semi-permanent 'L' shaped fittings.

Not likely that there is a cab in my future. But maybe a new parka and some ski goggles.

Thanks, I restored it last winter and used it so hard this summer that it already needs another paint job.

There is a push button under the clutch pedal and an on/off switch under the seat.

With those and a pair of snowmobile bibs you'll be all set :thumbsup:

Hey Dead Horse I like your new Avatar.

Looks like an Economy Power King and if it is they were really good garden tractors. They held up really well and there are quite a few around here still in use. Nice looking tractor.
