I did some leaf burning yesterday and I was raking out big piles of leaves from under my conifers and I realized that I could use my 125 with the snow blade to push the stuff into the fire. I thought that there must be something stupid about this idea but I wasn't sure what it might be so I gave it a shot. The problem came when I didn't enable the float on the blade so when I went down the hill towards the fire, the blade jammed against the ground really hard, and I couldn't push the button to unlock the lift. My weightless rear wheels were slipping and I couldn't back away from the fire! Finally I figured out how to get the button to push and I was able to back up.
Here is a video of the operation:
