Got my cub ready. Besides the washer fluid filled tires, the 60 lb concrete wheel weights, the 200 lbs rare weight, and the extra 42 inch blade extension wings, I added 4 million candle light power (2 million each) power by a spare battery this year. Seems like I add something more every year. Should be enough light if we ever get any snow. The lights are just zip tied on a tube steel mounted across the back, so it I ever wanted to use the lights separately, I can just cut the ties. Whole light setup cost only $4 in parts I did not already have.

Wow,looky that!!

Good use of concrete for weight.How much effort is there to lift that blade?

Thanks, it is all arm power assist. Gives my arm a good work out as it is pretty heavy. When I take the extensions off, it feels so light.

Do these things draw heat inside from the motor? As a windbreak it would be great but with heat, snow removal would be enjoyable.

Finally got the wheel weights installed on the 2072 so it is ready for snow duty. Chains on the tires and the tires are loaded. The 54" power angle Haban is ready!

Mine holds the heat in if the sun is shining (longwave radiation) and a little in from the engine. You definitely do not want an airtight cab or you'll be napping in a way that you don't want to me napping! None of mine are airtight, but they are comfortable enough to make snow removal even more enjoyable. My only complaint is that it is difficult to see close to your sides if you have a little dog wanting to be at your side or something like that....

Great pics fellas......keep 'em coming!
