Wow, I'd call that setup the "Nova Scotia Special". That is absolutely beautiful. When I spent time around Arichat (former in-laws), it seemed the drifts were over the top of the house. The idle of chatter of the guys seemed to be who had the best snow rig.
What a great tractor you have. Is there a jealous icon?

That is one HECK of a snow blowing rig with the blower in the back and plow in the front!

Enjoy!

Played with it for a few hours today...about 4" of snow overnight. What a joy to operate. Still keep going for the clutch but I'm sure with practice I'll get used to no clutching. I just want this "mother of a snowfall" to happen just to see how good this thing will push. I'll keep you all updated

Yes old habits die hard. After 40 hours now I don't go for the clutch immediately as part of standard work.

Took me a while after a hydrostat to learn to move my throttle foot right to the brake once I have shifted the shuttle lever to neutral or depressed the clutch. I was so used to the tractor with the hydostat staying put exactly where it was when I lifted my foot off the hydrostat (i.e. no rolling).

I still do use the clutch when I am driving in a somewhat confined area where I need precise control of the speed. I use it when I am parking in my shop and also use it when I am maneuvering a hay bale in my barnyard around my cattle.

Well she finally arrived! What an adventure as the delivery truck blew an engine on a mountain and I had to call a wrecker to bring the tractor home. Never got to check it out as yet.

WoW..Wow..WOW!!!

Man that's a rig!! Congratulations! :thumbsup: ... I'm jealous!
