In Reply to: What size LP snow blade? posted by thephantompatriot on November 30, 2014 at 13:25:18:
Let me give you my two cents (which will be worth just what it costs you) I've plowed lots of snow with a Ferguson 30 (pretty comparable with your 354) That landpride in the pic is WAY more blade than you need but if you want to spend the bucks fine. Yes, a 7 ft is sure all you want. A 6 might actually push more snow. But you are going to find out right away that the tractor won't push much. Especially with the blade turned around so it cuts in. The way to push snow is to back up with the rear edge of the blade back so it rides over knobs and does not dig in. On your finish pass you can leave the blade the same only do your work going forward. In light snow you may be able to do all your plowing going forward but be aware, too much snow dragging ahead of the blade can get you stuck. Of course on cement or blacktop this advice may not apply. I routinely plow my cement parking lot with my little 154 Leyland and the 7 ft blade facing rearward. I do have to watch out for any lips of cement it can catch on.
