Modifying Fisher Snow Plow for Tractor???

   / Modifying Fisher Snow Plow for Tractor??? #11  
I went to grab a pic of it and the ad it gone...I'll keep looking then. Another option I was thinking about would be to make a 3pt hitch mount for the loader and use the rear blade up there.
Is that an option that is good or bad? I don't have a lot of room to store too many attachments.

No, as said above you NEED that trip, my Fisher has tripped quite a few times saving the arms. Plus the Speedcast truck plow blade is just SOO easy to mount on a SSQD plate (do the little Kiotis come with that?). It's especially easy if you can get the pushbar from the truck side.
Good thing is not many people run the Speedcasts anymore, so they can go for real cheap on Craigslist, especially on the off season.

Now sure what a SSQD plate is and when I googled it, nothing tractor related came up.

This is the only pic I have of the plow. I put the red circles on there.

PS...$75 for a plow? That is awesome. I just sold an old Craftsman 42" plow for $75.00 :D

Skid steer quick attach plate, it's a style of quick attach for FELs.

That is a Fisher Speedcast, and is what you want. Hold out for a better price though, those blades go for 150ish all day on CL...my 75 was a lucky mid Summer score. There are a ton of those blades still out there, just gotta find someone who just wants to get rid of one.

If you can, get a pushbar with it, but they are easy enough to fab up if you can't. The pushbar is the part where your red circled ends connects to. It spans the front truck frame rails. Be careful though, fisher made different widths and you gotta match it up to the A frame width

Paid 150$ for my Meyers plow and love it. Rebuilt the cylinders and reworked it to work on my loader control. Just plain easy. I don't use a loader since I don't have one but I've used my neighbors and like moving snow with the plow.

Thanks, the floor was free. It was plywood underneath and took a beating so it needed an update. It' has to be redone since the glue was Eco friendly and not so sticky as the good old glue.

A fisher plow is much heavier then a meyers plow. I put a meyers on my BX and I am still thinking I may need to trim 6 inches off each side to trim weight. My father hooked up his fisher plow on the back of his 3 pt and used that to plow with. He prefers to have a bucket available all the time, and I prefer to have plow on FEL arms to push snow up a bank. I wish I had better pics of fisher plow mounted but its all i have.

I have 7.5 Meyers attached to a quick attach plate on my Kioti CK30. I also use the hydraulics for my 4 in 1 bucket to angle the plow. Works Great!. I put the plow on in October, and only change back to the bucket when I have to reduce the large snow banks near my dogs' pen.

The CK 30 handles the wirght just fine.

Where you at VTFireftr? I'm in Southern VT too.

Your CK30 is considerably larger and heavier than my lil guy.
I've had many Fisher Plows like this in the past and I remember they were quite heavy.
My lil CS only has a 675lb bucket lift capacity. I believe the blade weight on a 7.5' Fisher is 715lbs and I'd still need to add the A Frame.

No, my Fisher 7.5" is close to 350 or so, total probably about 450 with A frame....but that's way to close to max to hang off the front of your FEL arms...even on my DS3510 you can tell it's there!
