Will it run a small bushhog?
drhermesc: Do you think the hydraulics are good enough that I could adapt a pickup type snow plow to the front? They only have small cylinders.
NO, it does NOT have an independent PTO... I was just trying to explain what an independent pto is.... sorry if I confused you. It would run a 6' "bushhog" with no problem, except it would be wise to have an over-run clutch added to your pto shaft, or the mower will "push" you when you push in the clutch pedal... same as any tractor without a "live" or independent pto. In other words, it would be like one of the old Ford 9N, 2N or 8N tractors.
I don't know what the system pressure is, but I think it would pick up a front mounted blade or snowplow. The 3 point has no problem picking up a considerable weight, and it's the same system with about a 3 1/2" cylinder. My rear blade is heavy and it doesn't even notice it's back there. The guy I bought it from had about a 6-700# weight on it to counter-balance the loader and it picked that up with no problem..
