The host runs real passes, notes the blade is oversized for the tractor, explains the hydraulic top-link tradeoff, mentions float mode, and gives honest limits on concrete. Closes with a price point and a center-skid recommendation. Best for owners wrestling with rear blades on rock or gravel surfaces.
An owner-operator channel where the host documents hands-on experimentation on his own property, and he uses a discount code for the featured product, so keep that mild commercial relationship in mind.
Normally no, but adding Blade Tamers skids to the bottom of the blade kept rocks from being thrown out of the driveway and worked like a champ.
They will not hurt the concrete, but they prevent the blade from scraping all the way down, leaving about an inch of snow behind.
The host used one on each end but recommends adding a third in the middle since straddling the driveway crown caused the blade to grab rocks.
The host set the top link once for optimal angle and recommends leaving it in float, since further adjustments always made things worse.
