I've been using a Wheel Horse 312-8 with chains and front blade for snow removal and it has done well until last year when my driveway was sealed. The sealer had no aggregate in it and I had a really hard time getting up my driveway as it would freeze and turn into a sheet of ice.
With this, and the fact my Wheel Horse is 22 years old, I am getting a Kubota BX 1860 with a 60" front blade that I can operate from the seat. I will also put chains on it and liquid in the tires.
My driveway is asphalt, about a 1/10 of a mile, up hill all the way.
Any observations on this method of snow removal? I haver not considered a blower because I have trees and banks on both sides of my driveway.
Thanks!
