Just did a little touch-up work on our private road to make it wider, then started the switch over to winter gear. I stuff the rear blower on a large pallet in my shed for summer storage, quite the shoe horn job that requires removal of the FEL just to get the tractor turned inside. Now the MMM rests in there for the winter, safely chained and blocked to the wall.
Also welded up some brackets for shoes on my rear blade, can't wait to try them. Still no snow this year, story of my life in the 3 years and 346 hours (had to go check!) I've had the machine. Need to put the chains on today.
Other than that, its just a firewood mover and garbage can transporter this time of year. Gives my son good practice on the machine and the neighbor pays him well for the garbage can return each week.
Keep your fingers crossed for tons of snow!!!!

I then put the rear blade on. I believe I'm ready for the snow. Though I still didn't get the MMM cleaned. It is also due for an oil change, hydraulic fluid change, and antifreeze change as I'm at 667 hours. I will probably just wait until spring and do it all. There will probably only be 2 hours put on it between now and the first mowing. Now if we start getting a bunch of snow and I start putting a bunch of hours on I'll go ahead and do it all. I know, I should've already changed it so the engine doesn't "sit" with dirty oil in it.
