b7500 snow removal????

I'm happy with the PTO HP of the B7610. It blogs down slightly when snowblowing 8"+ going up a very steap section of my 1000 ft driveway. But then again, I snowblow in High gear. All I do is ease of on the Hydro peddle a bit and go slower and the engine RPMs pick right up. It has impressive power and torque with the MMM is the summer. Incredible difference over mt old Scotts rider.

cayanne,

Aside from the blower, I run a loader, 60" MMM, 50" tiller, and 48" rough cutter. With the exception of the blower, I find the tractor to be more than adequate to run each implement.

For some strange reason, it seems like I have to go rather slow with the blower when the snow is heavy. Others running this tractor/blower have said the same. I'm not sure why this is. It's not a big deal, just that I expected to be able to run much faster than I could with my old Ariens 14HP with 48" blower. The fact is I can't. So it still takes me 15 minutes to clear my 300' drive of a foot of snow. I was hoping for something like 12 or 13 minutes ;-).
