I find a front blade moves snow much faster than can be done with a bucket. I have a 460U with a front bucket. I take the bucket off in the winter and put a blade in place of the bucket on the loader arms. It was a simple matter to build a bracket to mount blade. Make sure you can angle the blade. Pushing snow with a blade is all about weight on the back and chains for the rear tires. My 460U has calcium in the tires. I also put about an 800 pound 6 ft snow blower on the back. Buy chains that have a cross pattern and do not buy the highway brand. The chain on the highway brand just falls between the lugs and does not do its job. I have a 6.5 ft blade on the front because I had one lying around. I suspect your 350U could handle a 6.5 ft blade. BTW, I live near Rochester, NY about 5 miles south of Lake Ontaria. It is not uncommon to get 12+ feet of snow per year. Doug Stockman Penfield, NY
