Rear 3-point Snow Blower

[Cub Cadet 123]

I have seen rear snow blowers for larger tractors, but not for these cubs. To me, it seems like it would be hard to direct while steering your tractor. I guess you would just aim it and drive straight back?! Still, it seems like it would be a challenge to operate. Well, it is for sale at a location that is not to far from me, if anyone is interested:

The chute looks like it's adjustable.

Seems like a rear mounted blower would be hard on my neck.

Well, with all the weight hanging off the back, traction should be good. I like the side extensions. If I recall correctly, I paid about $1200 for the 45" Cub Cadet snow blower (new) in 1994. My neck would never tolerate a rear looking position.

If a man was meant to to look behind himself while working,
the Good Lord would have provided 360 degree vision.

I do know a rear mounted snow blower is just asking for trouble like ingesting objects other than the intended snow.

Small children, pets and their food/water, toys, forgotten items like see-ment blocks, bricks, wooden chocks, a lug wrench, well you get the idea.

As far as a sore neck, did you ever moldboard plow a field of corn stocks with a multiple bottom plow and continually look back to see if they are plugging up?
One gets a very sore neck/shoulder at the end of the day.
Same goes for bailing hay with an IH #45 bailer that decides to not tie the knots on one side or the other,------------------
it does make for an interesting day, and increases ones vocabulary of inventive swear words.

Best to not have snow at all, or watch someone else do the removal from a warm lazy-boy, while sipping ones favorite beverage,
while the little woman watches the Hallmark channel.

Second best is to have the snow removal equipment mounted in the front.

Ditto on all the above!

Since that snowblower is shaft driven are there a lot of Cub Cadets out there with a rear PTO shaft?

[Mike McKown]

Just the real expensive ones.
