It’s a whole lot easier to add some bracing before bending. Pushing back buts the most stress and damage to the frame. A receiver hitch might be handy too.
This will be O.K. using in forward scraping but the weak link will be in reverse pushing with one corner doing most of work. With a box blade buy one that is over rated for your tractor. It will give you extra weight for a counter balance if you have a loader. The extra thickness of the metal will allow your tractir to spin it's wheels when pulling or pushing without bending your box blade.This TSC box blade is only rated 32hp and my LS is 42hp. Would I just destroy it or could I just slice slower? Never used a box blade before.
Absolutely. A generalization that people who 'have to ask' can look at so they don't buy things that their tractor literally can't pick up off the ground, etc. It's not a high quality bit of information.I imagine the manufacturer's rating is a generalization as to the weight and traction that the average 25-35 engine HP tractor has, and that's about it.
So if they'r saying 35hp max, and yours puts out 42, that's 20% more HP, so no warranty claims (is there a warranty?).
