I assume you're asking me? This is the first season I've had this tractor. Prior to that, we had a guy with nothing more than an F250 and a front snowplow take care of it, and we've had much more snow than you see in these pics. The tractor is a much better set up the way I have it. The front mounted blade on the loaded can lift so high, that I can push tall piles back easily. It is also very heavy and powerful, and can push mind boggling amounts of heavy snow. It's all about having exit push outs, where excess snow is pushed, and then those piles can get higher and higher, and pushed back as need be with the front plow. The rear blade follows along and cleans up, and when I get to an exit push out, I simply raise the rear blade, back over the pile of snow it left, and then push it forward with the front blade. I haven't had to use it yet, but in less than a couple minutes, I can put on my front bucket and actually move piles of snow from one spot to another.
Nice little blade, mine is bigger but so is my tractor and I didn't have any chains on the tires either....Used the beast today to clear some heavy and deep snow. MX5800 with chains front and rear, front blade and rear blade turned around backwards and angled is such a great combo on dirt and gravel roads. I have to clear a mile of roads on my property and it makes quick work of it

Thanks for the reply. Yes I was just curious but it seems like you've got a pretty good handle on it. Very nice setup, congrats.
Thanks man. Our Internet is frustratingly slow here so we try to keep the vids to a minimum. Thats 34 inches of snow by the way...The 3901 doesnt even slow down at all blowing this stuff. It's like it just plays with it.
Nice setup you've got there. What size blade? Might just be the angle those pictures of mine were taken from, but the blade is actually pretty big
He can easily change back to the bucket in a matter of minutes. His fel is a quick connect so it's just a matter of lifting 2 levers, dropping the blade, disconnecting the 2 lines going to the blade and putting the bucket back on.
I meant while he’s using the tractor to plow.
So far, no. Since the front blade sits so far out from the front of the tractor, and can raise so high, it's easy to push piles back or even off the side of a hill. The front bucket would only be necessary if I need to take snow from one place and move it a distance away.
