I've been pushing snow with a 16 inch tall by 80 inch wide blade pinned straight onto the loader arms of the loader on my Super H for 22 years. Most of the places I push snow are short so snow dribbling off the side is no problem. I raise the front wheels of the tractor off the ground when cleaning my concrete driveway. Winter of '07/'08 when we got over 101 inches of snow I had snow piled up 8-10 FEET tall. I've never felt the need to be able to angle the blade on my loader, would add way too much length to the loader&tractor and make it difficult to get in some places. I back drag snow from several places. A blade raised with a chain couldn't do that.
Had a snow blower on a garden tractor but got tired of wearing so much snow, plus it would have been really slow going on some of the snows I've pushed. Made the mistake one snow of driving into the shop with the tractor. Next snow had a 3+ft tall drift in front of the door, took several tries to get thru that drift, had snow piled a foot tall on top of the pto shield when I finally got out.
Had a day in about 1998 where we had severe blowing snow early one morning, decided to stay home from work with the 145 mile round trip commute. Spent the day pulling people out of the snow drift in front of our house, Son & I pulled a dozen cars out, about 10 AM I gave up trying to keep the drift cleared out. It must have been 4-5 ft tall. Packed in so solid our St. Bernard dog easily walked on top of the snow.
