YM 155D Snow thrower??

[chevy791979]

I'd love to have a belly mower for mine.
One thing I will say about these things is, a ballast box does HUGE wonders for traction and such. I imagine wheel weights would do great also, I just don't have any yet. They'd be easier a in not having to pin a ballast box on and off a needed.

how difficult was it to put that block heater in it? Do you happen to have a part number for the block heater?

Easy as pie to put in. Right by the starter is a threaded hole that this fits in.

The one I am picking up today does not have a loader unfortunately. It does come with a 48 inc yanmar finish mower though. I would like to have a loader for it, but unsure if I want to spend the money on that right now. I am wanting to put a front snow blade on it and or get a 3pt snow thrower for it.

I've also got a 3pt wood chipper. It works great for brush and such. I have an outdoor wood boiler and heat my 4600 sq/ft home with it. This tractor helps out alot feeding my boiler. Lol.

Thanks for the pic on the heater. The belly mower would be the **** over my 3pt mower. As for the ballast box I can see where that would come in handy. Have you thought about ballasting your tires? I have done that on my other yanmar. I ended up using Rim Guard (Beet Juice) on mine and it works wonders, and is very reasonably priced too. The wood chipper sounds cool. I wouldn't mind getting my hands on one of those. Is yours also a leaf shredder too?

You guys are talking about chippers, here's one I picked up recently. It's a Merry Mac pt12 or something like that.



Also a shredder...Works amazingly well.

That is a nice looking set up! Is that mated with your 147D? What did you give for that chipper/shredder?

Picked it up at swap meet for 500... Didn't steal it but it's in good shape. New they seem to go for 17-19 hundred..

And yes it's on a 147d. Handles it with no problems.

Nope. It a DR brand chipper

I've also thought about ballasting the tires but with them only being so big, I didn't figure it would make enough difference to justify doing it over actual wheel weights.

Sorry this took so long, but I had a busy weekend. Here are the pictures of my recent 155d purchase. I took the mover off the tractor for now so I an do some maintenance on the little guy first. Let me know your thoughts.
