Tractor-Equipped Snowblower
After reading the many great ideas in each issue of FARM SHOW, I'd like to pass along an idea of my own. The photo shows my 33 hp. Deere 1050 tractor equipped with a snowblower on front and a blade on back. The blower is driven by a 21 gpm Prince pto-mounted pump drawing oil from a reservoir tank carried on top of the rear blade.
The blower is powered by a hydraulic motor. The arrangement works great because I can use the blade to pull snow away from building walls and doors, and then blow it away with the blower. The oil tank provides extra weight on the blade. (Alan MacLean, 2532 Hwy 2E, Kingston, Ontario K7L 4V1 Canada)
