Snow BLower Recommendation - B7200 Rear Mount

[NoJacketRequired]

Well, it seems one orange tractor isn't enough. I've found a B7200 that is tempting me quite a bit. I'm curious as to what the great knowledge base here would recommend for a rear-mount snowblower for this unit?

Yes, I know, the front mount blowers are the cat's meow - I have one on our B7510 - but in this instance I want the B7200 for moving airplanes, making a rear-mount blower the only option.

A local fellow has a 48" blower for sale, standard 540RPM pto input. Not having worked with a tractor of this HP rating before, I'm wondering if I'm setting myself up for disappointment?

As always, thanks for the excellent, well considered guidance.

I used a 48" rear blower on a B7100 for years. It worked great. Only drawback was my tractor was a gear drive so no live pto. If your B7200 is HST then it will work even better because you can stop the tractor and keep the blower turning.

Thanks, Sam. Yes, this is the HST 4wd model. As it turns out, the blower had been sold before I was able to close the deal on the tractor (two different vendors, both in the same geographic area). Guess I'll have to keep my eyes peeled for a blower.
