Erskine 3 point pull behind snow blower

OK, no responses to my question about the Frontier SB-2176 front mount snow blower.

Doesn't surprise me. It's $12,994.00 plus $3,400.00 for power chute deflection. Basically priced out of the private market, only the government could afford one. So not many out there in normal hands.

How about the Erskine three point, PULL behind, PTO driven snow blowers. Can my 40 hp PTO drive the 78" model? Do they work well?

Rear Pull Snowblower : Tractor Snowblower : Erskine Attachments, Inc.

Thank you,

AK Greg

I'm not familiar with that brand, but I doubt you will be able to run a 78" snow blower with a 40hp tractor. My 1066 International is 145pto hp and it struggled at times with a 8' blower. Everything depends on how deep your snow is and how "wet" it is. Dry snow blows easier than heavy, wet snow.

Nobody puts that "C" word in front of MY International!
