 Topic: Snowblower for a 200?
Posted: 07 Mar 2011 at 10:07pm |
Would a 200 handle a 7.5 or 8 ft snowblower? When blowing extra heavy , could you just use the power director and go between Neutral and Low? I already have a loader using all the hyd outlets so I assume I'd need a diverter/splitter type thing.
What do you guys have for snowblowers on your 190's & 200's? Any feedback on a set-up for a 200 would be appreciated  |

I've used an 8 foot dual auger Allied on the 190 just fine but usually I ue the 7050 cause the cab and lighting is way better than the Full Vision on the 190 or no cab on the XT. You can slip the hand clutch to ease into snow banks or shift from high to low to slow down but you will probably never use high range when blowing snow.

I just bought a 7 ft double auger, 2 stage blower to put on my 190 gas. I hope it handles it. It is pretty small, though. I've seen single auger ones that are bigger. The question now, though, is do I want some more snow so I can try it out, or would I rather just wait til next year. I think the latter of the 2! Darrel

My D14 handles a 6' 2 stage OK; need to use the PD to slow it down in heavier stuff tho. The D17 SIV walks it thru the heavy stuff just fine; altho the PD is needed to inch into the big piles/drifts. I like the D17 better as it has 4 remotes which can operate the hydraulic chute directer. Got to believe a 200 can handle a 7 1/2 or 8 ft 2 stage with no difficulties.

....and after your first pass,you can take just the amount off the side you need to not ride the clutch and not over load the blower.Several small slices are easier than one full slow/slipping slice.
