 Topic: Allis Chalmers D-14 Moving Some Snow...
Posted: 06 Feb 2010 at 1:29pm |
Just a few pictures from the snow fall here is SW Ohio, I would say we had about 8 inches, used the D-14 to do our driveway and a few others. Probably my favorite part was one of my neighbor's flagged me down and asked to blade his because his Ford 3600 would not start. Nothing like an Allis to do a job a Ford cannot.

Looks good. Pushing snow is like mowing grass, ( you don't really want to be out there so make it as fun as you can ) We were lucky enough to miss most of that snow in east-central MO, but looks like we will get it on Monday.

wish we had gotten some snow to play in. I always help the guy across the road too. He has a JD 2630 with loader with bald tires and no chains. He cant fugure out why he cant push snow.

Does your blade swing around so you can push with it too? I know some around here do.

Had about an inch or so of snow this morning. Not enough to get out and play in though. Nothing like getting out and playing with tractors all year long.

We got blasted here in Virginia. The 6060 couldn't get enough traction to pull or push, dad was talking about breaking out the chains to use on the D15, I told him at 80 he is getting a little old to be messing with the snow

As Charlie175 said, we got about 8" - 10" of snow today on top of the 4" or so already on the ground, left over from last weekend's snow. I'm waiting until tomorrow to go out and tackle that snow with my B. This will make the second weekend in a row that my little B will have to perform, but I'm sure she'll do just as well tomorrow as she did last week!

I have the same set-up. Only diffrence is that in Ashland Co. we had so much snow that my D-14 wouldn't move it. I didn't even attempt to try, just went and got the neighbors skid steer and spent about 2 hours moving 12-13 inches of snow. Had alot of fun tho'.

I had the 45 work yesterday moving snow here in Ashland County, took a lot of work. Hope the next snow not a big running out of place to push it.
