Scott,
Thanks. I admire your work keeping those Farmalls red. Got hooked on tractors yanking trees with an H. Keep'em running.

Great videos! Thank you very much!
Two comments:
1) The use of rear ballast is very important if you've only a FEL to push or move snow. I learned this by leaving my back blade behind the shed which was not accesible after the recent snow/sleet/freezing rain storm in southen PA. My first time out resulted in a lot of tire spinning. Once I rigged my ballast box (with about 500-600 lbs of sand in it), I had a much more productive time of it.
2) Your ROPS is folded. Not such a great idea when using a loader.

Roy , Your points are very valid .
But, I can't help but to think that this would make a great tutorial on how to use an FEL to get a full bucket . whether it be snow ,mud , sand , or gravel , Goneandbrokeit has got it down to a Tee . I've read so many threads asking about how to get a full bucket,and all the explanations . But these few short seconds of video are by far the best explanation I've seen .

Only one good dumping of snow so far this year for us,and like you Sir it does help copeing w/cabin fever pushing back snow banks.
