MN_FISH Posted February 4, 2005 Posted February 4, 2005 Hasn’t been any snowblowing pictures so here’s another picture! The snow isn't that deep but there is a lot of snow because I keep blowing all the snow south to the pile. All the snow is settling now with the temps in the high 30’s [img]http://www.simpletractors.com/club2/uploaded/MN_FISH/South05.JPG[/img]

AGCO918 Posted February 4, 2005 Posted February 4, 2005 Very nice looking tractor and blower.Looks like it throws it a ways.
D-17_Dave Posted February 4, 2005 Posted February 4, 2005 Wayne, that's what I want my 620 to look like. I f we ever get any snow to use it with. lol
Jason Posted February 4, 2005 Posted February 4, 2005 Hi Wayne Nice picture of your 9020 and snow blower. I really like the looks of those tractors. Thanks for sharing that picture. Take Care Jason B
MN_FISH Posted February 5, 2005 Author Posted February 5, 2005 620Doc that's a 3-point lawnvac. I left it on for extra weight. Darn thing is side heavy. If you look at my post Lawn Vac Brackets 9020 you can see how it is mounted solid. I also put 4 50# suitcase weights on the vac. I'm going to take the vac off and make a weight bracket and put 4 110# suitcase weights on it to bring the weight closer to the back of the tractor. The vac sticks out too far and it makes the front end lighter so it doesn't steer to good when the snowthrower is in the float position. We don't want to put chains on the rear tires because it will scratch up the new cement in the garage. Also we use the tractor for mowing and don't want to fill the tires with fluid so we'll stick with extra removable weights.
Ronald Hribar Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 What is reason for not wanting weight in tires when Mowing? leaving ruts in lawn? I found on my newest Simplicity with out fluid in tires I would spin tires when turning and going upgrade. Fluid in the tires did help. It would still spin when grass was damp. Traction control on that tractor is to stop and then start out slowly.with weight in tires, doing that I always made it up the hill.
MN_FISH Posted February 6, 2005 Author Posted February 6, 2005 Ronald Hribar We don't have any major hills that we mow or have to climb. With the high flotation tires it has plenty of traction in the summer without any additional weight. The extra weights are just for snow throwing. Suitcase weights are easy on & easy off^. I work the garden with this:D so we want minimal compaction. [img]http://www.simpletractors.com/club2/uploaded/MN_FISH/9020Cultivator.JPG[/img] Also the tractor weighs about 1300# by itself and you add the 300# mowerdeck I'm overweight already for the portable aluminum ramps for our trailer when we have to haul it.
Jason Posted February 11, 2005 Posted February 11, 2005 Hi Nice looking tractor. Where did you get the Mini Cultivator for your Powermax? It looks like a mini DMI because of the blue paint. That is a nice set up and great for working a good sized garden up. Very nice. Take Care Jason B
KVANDY12 Posted February 15, 2005 Posted February 15, 2005 Fish looked at your profile, sames you have several of thoughs big tractors. I'd like to find one, but have never seen one here in S.C.
Charlieson Posted February 19, 2005 Posted February 19, 2005 We havent had any snow at all here, I dont think its going to snow. I have to start granny once a week just to keep her battery charged. I had to look here for some action pics so I wouldnt forget what snow looked like. ddh
HubbardRA Posted February 19, 2005 Posted February 19, 2005 Dwayne, Maybe you will get some snow tomorrow night.
