Rear Blade Rear blade question

[Iowa2210]

I run a Woods 5' blade behind my 2210, same as the deere RBC60. When I run it at 15 deg angle is covers my wheels well, at 30 deg angle it runs about right at the outside edge of my tire. It has done everything I have asked of it, and never felt like I was taxing the tractor.

BTW, paid $375 OTD for it, and will be getting a set of skid shoes for it this fall so I can move snow.

I run a 5' Farm King blade behind my 2210. I haven't done much in dirt but used it lots in the snow this winter. I run turf tires with chains and was able to do alot with the blade. The 5 footer is about all I can imagine back there without weighted ag or industrial tires. In deeper snow I can easily run out of traction or have the blade steer the tractor. Lacking split rear braking you need a loader or front weights to maintain the ability to steer and running in 4wd is a must.

I use a Frontier RB2072 behind my 2210. I never used a five foot model, but 6 foot works great. I use it for road/driveway maintenance. As a point of reference I also use a 6 foot rake, and I've never had any problems. I have filled R4's and if I run a little lean on traction I just grab a bucket full of stone.
