| We have about 700' of driveway we used to keep cleared with a 30HP Case 610 and a 6' Farm King 3Pt Hitch blower. Case hydraulics died so we sold the lot to a HD mechanic and now have a neighbor come in with his heavy equipment (front end loader , 4wd tractor and blade or grader). The only problem is the blades tend to scrape the gravel (1/4 road crush) off to the side and/or strip any grass growing along the edges. Not his fault , just the way the driveway is.
Tendency is to wait until the driveway needs clearing (in other words the 2" snow falls accumulate then we get a 10" dump)
I know the walk behinds won't handle this , especially if it's been driven over , as they don't have the weight/traction to cut into the packed snow.
On the other hand , on a 26 HP garden tractor , would a 2 stage blower do the job?
Would it cut into the packed tracks as well as packed snow at the end of the driveway after the County grader has gone by and plugged the driveway?
