6' snow blade Modification.

[joekimtkd]

I have John deere 6' Snow blade with electrical hydraulic cylinder (to lift).
so I have to modify this to fit into my B7510DT.

but I have a bit different idea for it though.

'cause, I want to use Bucket to move snow and want to use snow blade
for not much snow pile. and for heavy snow, want to use snow blower.
So my tractor supposed to have all those three attachments all times.
(1. Front end Loader Bucket, 2. Snow Blade, 3. 3Ph snow blower)


So I've been thinking installing snow blade on the bucket itself some how and
controlling the angle of the blade with electrical hydraulic cylinder.
and using KUBOTA's fancy feature of Loader Floating system.
(Thanks to Vic again...)
and using snow blade that way and flipping the snow blade up and start to
using the Bucket and flipping snow blade down to start using the blade again..... (Am I dreaming too much~?! )

Only matter of how to installing that snow blade on the bucket and how to
get it out quickly to use bucket and start to using snow blade in no time.

For now, I have a good idea for that......
I've already talk to a few mechanics and welding guys and they all says
great idea.

I've seen many snow blades on Youtube but either you can't use the bucket
on the spot or loader has to lift the blade and so on.

Does any one has good idea on this matter?
(Picture will be the greatest way to express... )

Of course, I will draw the idea and will post it here as soon as I get the chance.
or Vic to help me to PATENT it~~~???

Thank you for your help in advance.

I have spoken a few mechanics and they said it will work good.
Just only matter of how am I going to build it~~~ That is all~ ha ha ha.

Since I'm not the good welder, (although I have small Mig welder that can't weld heavy metal...) I have to take it to the Welding shop and have to look for a bit smart welder who could understand all this circumstances...

'cause, I've seen a few welders that were welding completely unacceptable.

As soon as I get a chance, I'll draw it roughtly and post it here. Then Vic, you could be the judge for me...


and I have a couple of videos too.

Hello Joekimtkd,welcome to the forum. Vic gives me too much credit for my fabricating skills. I weld my own stuff and build things for myself only.But I am an amature. Wildfire on the other hand is a professional fabricator.He makes some really nice stuff. I live about 20 kilometers from Durham. I know a mennonite who is a really good fabricator. I can't remember his number but I will post it tomorrow.And I am really interested in seeing your idea for the blade.Keep us posted.
