After reading some of the other comments and expecting more guys to say you need a Snowblower I had to agree about your answer to one of those comments about the price. The blower for my little Kubota 1830 is right around $3500 and maybe more. That is a big investment and with my gravel driveway I use my bucket with Edge Tamers and it works very well. I have decided to spend the snowblower money on the hard cab with Heat and AC. The wife even told me. "Your pushing 70 and you have worked your whole life so why should you be cold?"
Used 3 point hitch snowblowers can be had for a song and a dance.. and they are very reliable everyone goes so hard on the price of new blowers, Front mounts sure, but their are so many good deals to be had on rear ones
@@michaelmactavish4445 That was a rough price in 2019 when my tractor was new. That's the smallest one made by Land Pride as the 1830 has 18 HP but only 16 HP at the PTO
@@michaelmactavish4445 If I had a paved driveway I would buy the blower and the heated cab but I can't see throwing stones in my grass all winter so for now my bucket with Edge Tamers does an excellent job and I should have the cab by next winter.
Again a good snowfall on your side! Here we can still see the lawn through the thin layer of snow. But it's very cold. So no doubt I won't tear the lawn this year! You're only missing a snowblower if ever you get more snow! But you can still push a lot of snow with that plow and the tire chains though. Thanks Mike and best wishes to you and your family! Joe.
Heyhey Joe we are getting hammered with snow here 49 inches in December alone. The most I have seen here. A snowblower is great except for the price. The chains are the best thing I bought for the tractor thanks to you. Thanks for watching my friend
You’ve got some snow there mike! Great video, love the work lights you have in the back, I’v been meaning to add some rear lights to Mine for awhile. You’ve got a great setup for all that snow 👍🏻
Heyehey Mike we got even more after that it has been the worst that I seen here in 23 years. The light work great and make a huge difference. Thanks for watching my friend
@@AkDadStuff so true. I priced the front mounts and said screw this and put one on the 3 point with a camera in the cab so I didn't have to keep looking back. Yes they are definitely expensive. Your snowpusher works very well.
Merry Christmas Mike. I know that you certainly don’t need the practice when it comes to plowing snow, but yet it looks like you are going to get it. Still no snow here in Iowa. We have had 2 snows but it didn’t last any time at all. Stay warm and dry in that awesome cab. Full watch and a thumbs up 👍🏻
That is a lot of snow and I could see you running out of places to push it after a few big snow storms. I have the small 1830 Kubota and ended up paying a guy with a full size front end loader to come in and push my piles back another 10 feet and after that I pushed them further back to begin with. I think your place could be a setting for a Christmas card. It is obvious that you enjoy the work as I do. Merry Christmas.
How's she goin'? Wow Mike, you're already running out of places to put the snow and it's only the end of December!!! I love your snow pusher. And with the amount of snow you get having it on the loader arms is the way to go eh!!! This way you can push the snow way up into a mound. Merry Christmas Mike and I hope you and all your family have a nice New Year too!!
Hey there Mike it is nice having it on the loader and its a good thing too, we are supposed to get 15-20 inches more starting tomorrow. Merry Christmas
Hey bud I'm not sure if your tractor has a float function for the loader but my lx3310 does. It helps keep my front wheels on the ground so I can steer. Good video though!
Hi Mike, when you put the chains on the B 2601 did you need to put wheel spacers on the tractor for clearance? If so how does that work with your mid mount mower? Is there enough clearance for the back wheels on the 60 inch mower? Thank you for the video and happy holiday season. Wayne from Wisconsin.
Next time could you video the work you're doing starting at the camera and working away from it? That way we can see everything you're doing and see your progress. The way this was shot, the bermed up snow in between the tractor and the camera blocked most of what you were doing.
Heyhey Daniel I am sorry that some of the views were blocked. But in the area I was plowing with the large mounds I was on the road and could not set a camera there. Thanks for watching
No cabin fever when your get seat time....thanks for sharing.
Hey Thomas thanks for watching more to come. Merry Christmas

Great video Mike! Thanks for sharing and I'm glad the cab is working out for you.
Thank You Sharon I appreciate you guys making it happen

You sure do get a lot of snow. Merry Christmas.
You have way more patience than I do. After one season I put a snowblower on mine.
Hey Mike Snow blowers are way out of my price range so I will keep pushing

Merry Christmas Mike. Don't forget to duck when the Big Man flies over tonight...that overloaded sleigh will be clawing for altitude!
Heyhey Santa will be alright here . He comes to my house in a F250. Merry Christmas
I can't say I envy all the snow, but that does look like a lot of fun! Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas! - David 🎅🏻🎄
IT is a bunch of fun I could do it all the time. Thanks for watching.
Mike, great video. Jon would love to have at least one dumping like that in MN. Take care and be safe and Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Hey Mike Jon will get his I am sure. Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas to you and your family, keep those blades sharp my friend.
Merry Christmas and thanks for watching

Heyh Gary I am going to get more "PRACTICE" on Sunday and Monday we are expecting another 12-15 inches.

Heyhey I am running out already and expecting 12-15 inches more
Merry Christmas Here is hoping Santa brings you a snow blower !
Heyhey Santa won't ever bring me a snowblower because snow blowers are not cheap. LOL Merry Christmas
Nice Merry Christmas

Hey bud I'm not sure if your tractor has a float function for the loader but my lx3310 does. It helps keep my front wheels on the ground so I can steer. Good video though!
When I am pushing that much snow the float causes it to ride up. I was in float. Thanks for watching
@@AkDadStuff gotcha. Right now I'm running turf tamers on my bucket. Is the snow blade a big improvement?
Do you have your loader in float? Mite push better keeping your wheels on the ground
SANTA........................
At least Santa claus has a place to go with his sligh
Heyhey Bill he will be here in the morning
@@AkDadStuff I know that he will be there.
Looks like a lot of fun. How wide is your pusher ? I have a 24hp yanmar and I’m debating between a 5’ or 6’.

Is there enough clearance for the back wheels on the 60 inch mower? Thank you for the video and happy holiday season. Wayne from Wisconsin.
I do have spacers and they do not interfere with the mower
@@AkDadStuff thanks for the information. I think I’ll get the 2 inch ones if that’s what you have. Thanks again Mike and Happy New Year.
Hoping you got a wireless mic for Christmas!
With that much snow you need a front mount snow blower and a set of front tire chains. You will be done in a quarter of the time.
Hey Don Snow blowers are way out of my price range so I will keep pushing
