Ramon: Shuttle work of any kind creates almost double the clutch wear as normal tractor work. Just consider the number of times you change direction plowing snow compared to a moldboard plow. Hitting unseen objects is another problem. Just takes some common sence. We have been doing blades and loaders almost since the tractor was invented. No question, there are more suitable vehicles for blade and loader work than a gear drive tractor. Most 40 hp skid steer loaders will out do a 70 hp tractor with loader, and at less cost. Just use common sence, and you will only rebuild clutches more often.
