With no chains and no EXTRA weight, you will have a tough time pushing much more that a few inches of snow.
Even WITH chains, the biggest issue will be backing up if you get so much snow that it spills over the back of the blade.
High speed and good weighted traction is the key here plus (very important) knowing in advance what is UNDER the snow in terms of possible obstacles/obstructions.
When the windrow rolling off the edge of the plow gets above blade height, you are pretty much screwed and it's time to break out the thrower or tackle the windrow head on at a 90* angle.
Good luck, be safe and have a blast!!
