Weight

[Robert Payne]

Anybody know the weight of a QA36 snowblower??? once i mount the snow blower,I'm mounting a steel weight box on the back of the tractor so that i can add beilgin blocks for weight (use what you got laying around) to counter wergh the snow blower. I'm using Kindorff and chain to mount the weight box to the 3 point mounting holes and a cheap bathroom scale to weigh the blocks so i don't over load the back...

I believe it would take a lot more than the weight of a snow blower to make the rear end of the tractor light.
I would take a guess at it weighing about 100 to 120 lbs. (I have picked one up several times)
Some of the northern guys that use a blower regularly could tell you how much weight they use.

I have 150 lbs of wheel weights for my QA-42 thrower. Works great with chains. I guess the thrower is around 100 lbs based on my “grunt factor” when I mount it on my 147.
