snow blower for b7800

[dfcloud]

Hey All,
I'm looking for a used snow blower for my b7800. I have found a New Holland 716C. Do you all know if this is too big for my rig to run? It is a 72"er. Rear PTO HP is rated to 22hp.
Thanks for any info!

Greetings from just up the road.

I personally think it's too much for your tractor and our snow.
I have the same model as this just slightly bigger and it works very well, I do over a mile of drive and private road and it's a well built unit.

Thanks Wolfman!
Somehow I did not see this one on craigslist. I'll be calling them shortly and probably doing that lovely drive to Spokane.

A few weeks ago I picked up a 48" Loftness for my b7100 for $900. It was a great deal considering it was the exact size I needed, great shape, and is built like no other I have ever seen. This thing is made of some seriously HEAVY gauge steel that I think would stop a missile. I never heard of the company until I found it and every review I read expressed how great the quality was. Also, I couldn't find an owners manual for it so I contacted Loftness and they emailed me one right away. Well worth the money and thank goodness I found it in August because it should have cost me much much more. I'm sure any make 3 pt snowblower would get the job done but if you come across a Loftness grab it! Just beware they are heavy so opt for the one that is as wide as your tractor.

What's this snow stuff? Why does it need to be blown? I think my 3200 needs a leaf blower or vacuum attachment, anyone got one of those?
