We just got over a Northeaster this weekend. must have got at least 8-12" and had about 5-6" on the ground. I have a road going from the back of my house and along the top of my blueberry field, about 500-600'. I started pushing snow ( without my rear chains) just to see how far I could push it before the tractor would spin. I would go down the middle first ,then as I came back up the road I'd widen the road by just taken some off each side. I found that instead of pushing ,filling my bucket and having to dump, I would put the bucket level in float then push until the tractor would stop just before it would spin.I'd pick up the bucket ,back up and put the bucket back down in float then go forward until I'd come to my pile, then go into it as I picked up the bucket just enough to start taking the heft of it and would push that until the tractor would stop. Back up put the bucket in float level to clean up as I go. Once your bucket fills with snow ,Don't dump it. Leave it filled as this makes the snow your pushing roll off the sides (most of it ) you will get some over the top ,but nothing that you won't get when you back up to clean up. I saved alot of time not having to keep backing up to dump off the sides of the road ,as I would have to keep driving my front wheel off the road to dump. Might be something to try .I know when I have to plow this road again ,I'll be doing the same thing again. The thing I kept in mind is when you get to the pile your pushing slowly be picking your bucket up until your able to move the pile forward as you start to slow keep coming up with your bucket. I would not go more than 15-20' at a time so not to get much snow under the tractor. When you back up to clean up you"ll get it clean by putting the bucket in float on level. Push that up to your pile and repeat it.
