    Time to mount the Blower

    I did the same after work tonight. Dropped the loader and put on the snowblower. They’re calling for 6-12” tomorrow.

    What do you think of these tires ?

    The R14T was invented by Titan, division of Goodyear. Supposed to be a cross between the R1 and R4. By all reports, a superior tire for use in snow. Also, a lot smoother tire going down the road. Not a big deal when tractors went 22 mph tops. Now high 20’s is slow. The last time I helped out...

    What are you currently working on??

    Removed the loader and stuck the blower on. A few issues came up. It is really easy to remove the loader. The hose retention loop for the blower that goes on the frame above the front axle gets to stay there. I can’t see why I would need to remove it. The hydraulic hoses for the blower are...

    Anyone have a GC1723 Massey Ferguson ?

    Ok, finally hooked that part up. The mid pto shaft going out the front spins counter-clockwise when sitting on the seat facing the front.

    The snowblower was ready to pick up today. On the way, I got a set of lightweight pallet forks for it, also.

    Fastway Flip jack foot

    Not sure I would trust that with an empty trailer. Definitely not with a heavy or loaded trailer.

    Oh, that’s one nice little MF’er. I don’t have the blower yet, so I haven’t pulled the cover off the mid pto yet.

    Got my tail lights switched around to the protected (and in the way if using a 3 point attachment) position. Hardware store did not have rubber or plastic plugs big enough for the outside wire access hole that is now abandoned. 1&1/8” They did have the chrome style, so that’s what it got: The...

    Anyone have a GC1723 Massey Ferguson ?

    Blower is still another week out. When they got it in at the dealer, the front lift, driveshafts, and hydraulic orbit motor all came in a crate. Wherever it came from, it had been sitting outside and gotten rained on and it had a leak. Everything inside was rusted. They ordered new stuff. I run...

    Now to pick something out of the shed to sell. Probably the Gravely or the Troy Bilt snowblower. MFer needs a set of forks! I don’t remember my weight box being this ugly on the last tractor.
