TRACTION absolutely.... That is an area where the two stage backup snowblower shines.. With the old Vee style pull through snowblower; there are times that you have to back into the larger drifts with the blower raised, then drop the blower and drive forward with the blower running..This is the only way to not chance getting hung up when a large, long drift is tackled..
Once that first path is knawed through, you can slip on the snow wing and chew away on the side of the drift, while keeping the tractor wheels on the cleared path...
These old Vee type snowblowers are a good buy for the money, and will blow snow.. They were designed to work with the old tractors of yesteryear.. There is little else out there that will work well with the older tractors, especially without live PTO and creeper gears.... One thing for sure, they beat using a shovel.
I enjoy talking about the evolution that equipment has experienced over the years..
The snowblower and tractor designs have both experienced major improvements..
Getting the tractor, the equipment, the job at hand and the poor pocketbook to all match at the same time; !! That can get to be a challenge.... One thing I enjoy about this Forum; there are so many good contributers that are willing to share their experience and advice..So many diferent machines and combinations to learn about..So many different ways to do a task, and so many different reasons to do so..

It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
