Do they make this type of snowblower?

[Teikas Dad]

I want to get a snowblower for my tractor as I'm planning on moving to central New Hampshire next year. I don't like the idea of having to back up all the time with the TPH type. Kubota makes a front mount that requires an entire subframe.

Does anyone make one that replaces the bucket on the front loader that either runs with it's own gas motor or via hydraulics with a pump mounted on the mid PTO? I searched on the internet and found snowblowers that mount on the front of ATVs that have their own motor, but I didn't have any luck with a tractor mounted PTO driven hydraulic type. Maybe they don't make such an animal?

They do make one that runs of the rear PTO(hydraulic)this one replaces the bucket,also make one that runs off the rear PTO via a drive shaft and sub-frame.Both are real pricey, upwards of $12,000.Search the snow removal forum here.

sure do. very spendy though. Mine cost about $11,000 complete. mind you a heavy built USA made rear blower runs 5-6K.

Skid Steer Attachments | Mini Skid Steer Attachments | Tractor Attachments | Bobcat Attachments | Quick Attach sells them, as do a few others. You can get a truck mounted front end blower that has its own engine and have it made to fit tractor loader also.

WEEEELLLLLLL,


The problem is cost and more cost as you can purchase
front mounted snow blowers that use a hydraulic power pack
that operate with a hydraulic pump tank in the rear and hydraulic
motors to operated the impeller and open cross auger.

The other thing you could pursue as an option is the purchase of a three
point hitch kit from Pronovost as you have a mid point PTO BUUUUUT
that would require you to remove the front end loader and frame :^((

Saying that SNOGO Makes a small motorised snow blower that would
cost you as much or more than your B3200 and would be as expensive
as your purchase cost of the B3200 or more .


The thing is with a hydro mule and a rear mount you could probably get a swivel seat
and also operate that way which many of us do.

A lot of us use big truck mirrors and rear view cameras and have for years.

It comes down to home much you are able to spend and you are looking at a system that will get above 16-20,000 thousand real quick.

It might be much simpler to trade down to a B2370 with the bells and whistles and get a loader and front mount BUT a rear mount is much less expensine for that power unit size SO.........

$$$$$OUCH!!!! I guess if you've got the money you can get anything you want. Hmmmm, maybe looking over my shoulder while I'm backing up isn't so bad. I thought the Kubota front mount at $4k was expensive....I don't feel so bad any more! Thanks for the info guys, appreciate it.

wow, i cant even imagine spending 11k to put a snowblower on something, much less a compact tractor. more power to you; but thats insane!

Hello Teikas Dad,

No worries, collectively we just want you
to look before you leap.

If you can go to a truck repair shop you can buy the biggest
side mounted rear view mirrors with or without the lighted mirrow
do dads AND you can buy the heated mirrors and tie them into the
tractor lights.

The keys to a rear snow caster purchase are 1. buying one wider
than your rear wheels and 2. buying one with a chute extension as
you will not be buried in snow that spills off the chute and spout.

Just strap in two or three walk behind blowers in the bucket, start them up, bypass the safety handles and blow snow.

There was a blower that attached to the loader and ran off the mid PTO. You had to put braces on the the loader to prevent you from raising it too high. Someone on here had one on a Kioti.

I like you're thinking...totally redneck like me!!!! Only I'd use duct tape instead of straps!
