The Kub's new/old plow mounting system's
maiden voyage
The first winter with the Kubota as our main snow plowing tool I had
the plow mounted on the loader bucket.
The Kub plowed snow well but mounting off the bucket was too long.
This additional length created lotsO leverage working against plow when
pushing snow all but straight ahead. Also, with all the added weight of
the loader bucket, lift arms n hydraulic system, the snow plow an un planed
road grader.
A few weeks ago I took the Kub down to my mate Emil's welding n fabrication
shop to re design the mounting system. I think I wanted the plow to push
off the frame not the loader bucket.
Lots better now but with a little tweaking, it will be close to perfect
(hope).
