Your TO 35 should handle a 6' box blade, a York rake, and a back blade just fine. It should also do well with a 6' finish mower.
I know it will run a 5' bush hog well, but I'm not sure about a 6' bush hog. The drive line will power it just fine. However, I don't know if the extra weight and the longer moment arm of the 6' over the 5' will lift the front wheels of a TO 35 off the ground. My MH 50 has a longer wheel base, so it has an advantage. I also have loaded rear tires with wheel weights. Even at that, if I let the clutch out too fast with the machine pointed up a hill, the front wheels will come off the ground, fortunately, only for a second. Perhaps someone with a TO 35 will chime in on this last point.
Most people don't realize how much larger a 6' bush hog is in comparison to a 5'. It just plays like a much larger piece of equipment.
