Although I don't like to show off, I think I will anyway. I have the new BX2750B front mount blower attached and ready to go. Coupled with the rear blade I am ready for the tremendous amount of lake effect snow we get every year. I just had to show off.

Thanks

Frank,
Those are reflectors on the ROPs. The flash must have caused the bright reflection.

And, come on guys, I cleaned up my rig after a summer of mowing and hauling things around with the FEL. I do like a clean machine though /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

How about a picture of how the chute rotation crank handle is attached to the loader valve. This has been a question for a while now, that no one has been able to answer. How did Kubota engineer it? Will we get to see a picture of you dressed in your full snow fighting gear before the snow flies???? /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I have snowblower envy already /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif
Looks great, but where is the cab? Your not going to battle all that snow without a heated cab are you? /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Well I guess you could use the snow suit and full face snowmobiling helmet as others have suggested /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Enjoy!!!

Yep looks great BUT you need a cab! If you do not have an extra $2000 this year, see what I did. It works and costs $125, much better then having a face full of snow. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

You had better pray that the wind is in your favor or you will come off that machine looking like a snow bunny.

Junkman,
Here is a photo of the bracket. This one is shorter than the first one they gave me, but I still had to drill new holes so the bolts would line up to mount it on the valve frame.

By the way you guys, I've been blowing snow behind a 5hp snowblower for many years so I have learned how to deal with the north winds! I will be very comfortable blowing snow on this rig /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif
