    Stupid newbie question - can’t get snowblower off tractor

    Dusty, the manual had the one line that I posted and that was it. Like many manuals the assumption is always that you know what you are doing in general before you even the book.

    Stupid newbie question - can’t get snowblower off tractor

    Howdy - I have a Kubota L4060 with a L4479 snowblower. I bought it January of this year and it was delivered with the snowblower already attached. The dealer provided no instructions, assistance or any pointers so it has been a realLy interesting experience learning to drive a tractor and use...

    Buying a rear blade for a Kubota L4060

    Only my second post and both times the responses reinforce my understanding of how ignorant I am to the world of tractors (and snow). Thanks to all for the great replies. The blade I am looking at has a 12" offset and based on the comment about horsepower I will stick with it (84" on a 72"...

    Buying a rear blade for a Kubota L4060

    Thx - I do have a 74" front mounted snowblower. Don't have the blade yet, hence my questions. The tractor and the blower arrived well the property got 3 - 4 feet of snow so it has been a struggle. I have a ¾ mile road I am clearing. Ended up using my excavator to break through the snow / ice...

    Stupid Tractor Newbie question about snow depth

    I just to say thank you all again for the fantastic suggestions. I was able to clear about ¾ mile worth of road using the snowblower (front mounted) with all the knowledge I gained from this forum. I also used my excavator to break up the really icy parts and then the blower to clear them...

    Stupid Tractor Newbie question about snow depth

    Love that story! I do know what is underneath as there was no snow when I bought the land. It is a hayfield with a gravel road surrounding it so I am safe in terms of falling into ice or whatever.

    Stupid Tractor Newbie question about snow depth

    Thanks again for all the great insight. I had expected to get this tractor months ago and deal with all the ancillary things I would need to procure, ballast, chains, etc. I don't even have a front end loader as it is still backordered. I have the tractor and the blower. I may see if I can get a...
