I have a 6 ft snow pusher I use mine in float I like the snow pusher vs the bucket because it rolls the snow instead of falling over the top like the bucket

It would be interesting to see how the bucket would do with “Edge Tamers” attached to keep it from digging in.

I tried a 8 foot snow bucket on my bobcat s185. It was too much. It didn't help it was the first snowfall of the year and I was pushing on gravel. The bucket wanted to keep digging. If I tried pulling the cutting edge up it would start leaving too much then I'd spin out. I'm going to rent a 6 foot pusher and see how that goes. If I have no problems with power/spinning out I'll buy a 7 footer.

This year I took a 2 inch pipe and cut a slit down it and hooked it over the cutting edge on mine. It don't cut up the grass as much now this way.

I see you have a weight box on the back of your tractor. We are purchasing a MT225HE. Planning to trade in our John Deere along with the weight box. The dealership is filling our tires with a liquid( some type of oil vs calcium chloride). Should we/do we need to keep our weight box?

I would recommend it yeah. It will lift the back end up without it. And with dirt in the bucket you don't need to use 4x4 near as much.

Nice tractors! I have the MT357. I use it for logging and around my sawmill... I put it through some heavy use, and it is an awesome tractor. I had a Kioti DK40 for the previous 10 years, and it was great. Everything that broke on it was my fault. I have 50 hours on the LS, and I have yet to find a weakness.

Yes Sir, the 28,000$ problems of the "investment" must of be a "light-weight small rig" that maybe "Trys TOO HARD" to get ALL the chores done. I Have had ZERO PROBLEMS with the Three of my tractors( & ALL "finally paid off fer"& various manufacturers ). REASON NUMBER ONE.....l Thoroughly READ, READ,& READ & Understand the OPERATOR'S MANUALS for hours before l have EVER TURNED THE KEY on DAY ONE.... They were ALL DELIVERED and Parked for HOURS&HOURS & Studied; before ALL the "RAMMING-SPEED " occurred. A 5-10miniute salesmen "operating course" almost counts for NOTHING !!!!! Bet it's a "hydro-slack-o-matic " that EVERBODY takes LOTS of "joy-rides" ON ,& LESS Than 200 total hours & "break-in" procedures were Super-seeded by a LOT of "Overloaded,get-er-dun Proceedures" .... Right out of the Gate!!!! "EASY -ALWAYS Does IT", RIGHT; to make machinery Last & Opperate nearly Flawlessly.

Believe it or not, the float function doesn't work very well in this application. At least for me. What happens is that the tractor front wheels will lift off the ground. I've found it best to get it level and at the desired height and then just go for it.
@Redrunner95 Жыл бұрын
@@mikef1570 What happens is there is enough drag on the snow pusher that the snow pusher slows down but the tractor still wants to move forward. The hydraulics in float position basically allows for unrestricted flow through the hydraulic actuators on the loader ie, no resistance to change of position in the actuator. This ends up creating the affect of lifting the front wheels off the ground because the snow pusher gets stuck, tractor still needs to move forward and there is no hydraulic resistance in the actuators to transfer the tractors motion into the stuck snow pusher. Kind of hard to explain without seeing it happen in person, but I have experienced this numerous times. I suggest using the float to let the snow pusher conform to the ground then popping it out of float and move forward. This may also be a symptom of lighter tractors. I have a John Deere 1025R
