Any one out there put a blade on the front end of an H for snow plowing, how does it work, hook on etc.

Thanks

The easiest way is if your tractor has a loader. Take off the bucket, and put a blade on the front of the arms. You can be as creative as you want, or keep it really simple. If you have loader arms on your H, you could easily adapt a rear-mount 3pt blade onto the front end.

I have a flat blade that's 8' wide and over 40" tall that goes on the front of my M. An H will not push what an M will, but it may surprise you. Chains are a big help, but not essential unless there is ice under the snow. Add weight to the back of your tractor. Set the blade about 2" off the ground, put the H in 3rd gear, and move some snow!

I have a picture I could send you if you want. Give me your E-mail address and I will send it to you. By the way, it is for sale "cheep" if you want it. I live in the mid-Michigan area.

I have a IH-H/M loader with the IH snow blade, but no shoes. I have a M&W live pump on my H, but you can use your belly pump. Yeeees, you will need a set of chains and leave the blade straight, don't angle it or it will go, where it wants to go. :-) It is for sale!

Thanx!

I have a snow/dozer blade for an H for sale in Traverse City, MI. It lifts using a hydraulic cylinder that mounts on the front culitvator mounts of the tractor. It uses the belly pump. It pushes from the rear axle housings. Complete mounting and cylinder included for $150. Email efisher@chartermi.net if you are interested.

If you have no hydraulics and have converted to 12v get a electric hydraulic system from a pickup truck then you won't have to deal with non live power issues.

I used to have an H. Donated it 6 months ago to a local church. I had a very crude but semi-effective blade. The most useful blade setup I know of for an H without Hydraulics is as follows: A guy described his setup to me on this site about 2 years ago---Use heavy Channel iron 5/16" thick or so. Make brackets that will bolt on to the rear axles, then bolt the heavy channel iron onto brackets on the rear axle. the channel has to run all the way out in front of the tractors front wheels. THen mount a blade on the front of the channel iron pieces. TO lift the blade/channel setup attach a lift bar mechanism to the side of the tractor about where the governer setup is. this will be the pivot point for lifting the blade setup, you only need to lift up the blade about 6-8 inches.

I use one every winter, works very good. Mine attaches to the loader frame, just remove the bucket, and replace it with the blade. If you intend to push snow, you will also need a set of rear tire chains.
