Add more weight?
I have a Cub Cadet LGX1054 and have put a MTD 42 inch Snow Thrower attachment on the front. I have added chains to the tires and suitcase weights to the back. How much weight should I put on? I have about 60 lbs added already. I am noticing that while turning the front end will slide and not turn unless I lift the snow thrower attachment an inch or so off the ground. Then it will turn fine. Suggestions?

I have heard of people putting chains on the front wheels to get more grip.

get some nice rib tires up front. those skids on the blower are acting like rails. keeping the blower going straight and hard to turn. some wider flatter skids or shoes on the blower would help with turning it. mking it slide better for turning.

Load'em up like Methos said. And the good advice of bigger shoes, along with ribbed tires both are a big help.

Thank you all for your suggestions. I'm going to go with the ribbed front tires and loading the rear tires. I'm looking for wider skids as well.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
