I think a loader attachment could do the Job.

Do you use it with the hyd in Position or Qual? Perhaps that's why you want to add wheels?john.n wrote:My creation from last year, I found it worked really well on our steep hill/ road. think I'll add some wheels to the back this year though.
however it did turn an hour and a half into 4 mins... vast improvement.
Looks a mean bit of kit.

I use it in position control. its a heavy thing so wears out the rubber strip very fast. some wheels would save on rubber.
the weight is brilliant for traction though as a dexta is very light on the back end without anything on the link arms.
the blade is 6ft and about 20inch high. will shift almost a foot of snow in one pass, any more and you get pushed sideways all of a sudden which can be less than desirable.

You will find that when the road turns icy, you will need to put tire chains on. The Tractor will slide the the lowest most undesirable spot along the path and stick there until spring if you don't satisfy its needs. Dandy Dave!
