The transmissions of most residential lawn tractors and zero-turn-radius riders are best-suited for one use—cutting grass. But unless you have a high-end lawn or garden tractor, you could shorten the life of your tractor by pushing a plow or snow-blower attachment against significant snow.
A garden tractor can only push a limited amount of snow. If you get more than 4-5 inches at a time you might find it difficult to move. If you regularly get heavy snowfalls you would be better off finding a snow blower attachment for the tractor or buying a walk behind blower.
Similarly, can you put a snow blade on a zero turn mower? Use your-zero-turn mower to clear snow from your driveway or parking lot with the Ohio Steel 60 in. Simple to operate - push down foot pedal to raise snow blade and reposition when needed.
Hereof, are ATVS good for plowing snow?
Any mid to upper size utility ATV will plow snow just fine. Its recommended staying in the 400-800cc range, not because of engine power but because of weight. The bike should weigh from 400 to 700 lbs or more. Riders who buy the bigger machines generally have other uses in mind than snow plowing only.
Are Husqvarna riding mowers good?
Husqvarna riding lawn mowers are compact for better handling and ease of storage. They offer easy-to-reach cutting height adjustment at fender level, a seat that adapts to different body styles, and an ergonomic steering wheel for comfort.
