Has anybody here had any experience with a 3-point snowblower on a 2015 gear drive??
A friend of mine has 2 for sale really cheap, (a 54 and a 64 inch, i think) The 54 inch would be even with the width of the tractor, by my measurement. I'm cool with that.
My concern is this. The 2015 gear is not a live PTO. So if I were to get into alot of snow, I couldn't spin the blower fast, and stop or slow the tractor down like a hydro, or live PTO without actually stopping the blower too, right??
So I guess my real question is... ...Does the 2015 have sufficient power (17.5hp) and a low enough reverse gear to handle a substantial amount of snow?
The first pass down my driveway is my main concern, because after that, I could just take smaller bites. Thanks for any input.
