will be following along. I would think this would be a nice setup if you can make it work good. the Blade up front for most of the work the blower on the back gives you rear end weight for pushing traction and then if you get deep snow you can just back up and blow it. Kinda Best of both worlds if your doing 90% plow and 10% blow I would think it be good.

was thinking about this and you could also just walk besides the tractor while using the rear mount blower that way your facing the snow blower and not having to try and look behind you. I know its not ideal and the saftey people are gonna have there knives out. But I have done alot of work standing along my 140 and moving it back and forth. Fine adjustment to line up the forks for picking stuff up. Stand on hydro drive side reach across to lower lift the forks then back up slow to where I want to be. I alway's stand on the drive side of the tractor I don't reach across the hood for moving tractor fowards or back. but I have stood beside them a bunch and moved foward or backwards. also getting backed into tight spots in the garage when I have the tiller on the back and stuff. Or I have a pallet on the back that I want to fit in a tight spot and its alot easier to watch facing the item then trying to look behind you and watch both sides when backing into a spot when there is little clearance.

Just my thoughts.

Are you gonna travel at speed no not really but slow walking pace you would be okay. That is till you slip and the front of the tractor runs over you and all of that.
