Just my two cents worth.I operated a front mounted p.t.o.powered snow blower when I worked at G.R.Ford Airport. However,it was on a N.H.4wd articulating steering tractor with hydrostatic drive and front and rear p.t.o.'s. Both p.t.o.'s could be set at 540 or 1000 rpm depending on the attachment. The Blower had a double auger with impeller and a hydraulic operated chute and we ran it at 1000 rpm. The tractor was rated at 150 h.p. Not much help for you in that I am sure your tractor is somewhat smaller. I am just saying it takes alot of H.P. to pitch that snow any distance and not bog down the tractor. You know Michigan snow can have alot of moisture in it especially when it comes in off the lake making it heavy. Thus the need for MORE POWER. Belts tend to slip when the going gets tough. You may be alright with a belt drive since you aren't doing a big area and if you take 3/4 cuts after your first pass.Good idea though,Hope it works for you.
