If you've seen any of my previous videos, you might know that I purchased a 6-foot snow pusher from Homestead Implements this past Spring. Since then I've added a rubber edge and have been anxiously waiting on our first big snowfall to test it out. Check out how well my Kubota L4701 handles 2' of fresh snow with a 6' snow pusher!

Awesome video
Thanks for watching! Considering subscribing for more!!
Just found your channel, us Kubota guys have to stick together, haha.
The band of kubotas, if you will..
A little late to the party here, but I have a Kioti 35hp tractor now. I was looking at the 6' Homestead pusher but wondering if I should drop down to the 5' to make sure my smaller tractor can handle it? We have potential here in North Central VT to get some big snow dumps, thought we've been lucky the past couple years.
I would say that your traction is the more important question here. If you run a counterweight with tire chains you should have no issue pushing a 6’. Before I made my tire chains I ran out of traction a lot faster than I ran out of power
I just bought this same snow pusher, in red. Unsure what length you have. I got 84”. Looks like maybe you do too. I’m using it on a Takeuchi TL6R track loader. Hope to have enough traction to push lots of snow. Waiting for it to ship from H.I. Thanks for your uplifting video. I can’t wait to hook it up and go play.
Thanks for watching! I have the 72” model. And my tractor would run out of traction before it ran out of power. I ended up making a set of tire chains for the tractor, and that hasn’t been a problem since. If you didn’t know they make chains for track loaders that just clamp across the face of the track.
@@EverythingElliott yeah they do they’re very expensive. I might have to push snow down hill, and drive up hill with blade raised. Thank you for replying. I wish you an easy winter.
Nice one! Is the pusher 72"? Presently using a bucket and 3 point blower (when snow light enough) and considering a pusher for my JD 3120. Do you wish you got the back drag with it?
Yes…..
czcams.com/video/cm-MyLu4ZyY/video.html
I have the back drag on mine and love it.
Thanks for the video. I also have a L4701. About every 3 or 4 years we get a snow big enough it requires removal. Very rare to have more than 6”.
I’ve heard the non-siped R4’s are bad in snow, and maybe they are compared to chains or siped R4’s. It was quite instructive to see a L4701 with unsiped R4’s working in snow. I can understand why someone who deals with snow routinely might want better traction, particularly steering, but for what I would have to do, I now know the setup I have is perfectly adequate. So thanks for that.
And yes, I subscribed. Have a few thousand hours on old gassers and about 350 hours on the L4701 but always learning so it’s kind of interesting to see what someone else can do with the same machine I have. It was a near shocking upgrade from the 9N it replaced.
Thanks for the support. And jumping from a 9n to a L4701 is an amazing leap. I’m sure you were blown away the first
Time using the 4701.
I have a kioti NS4710 with loaded tires. Roughly the same size as yours. Do you think your tractor could handle a 7’ pusher? I think I would prefer the larger one.
I don’t think it would have any issue at all, I regularly push more snow than fits in the pusher anyway. Grip is going to be the thing you fight, you might have have to add some extra weight to the rear
What is your make and model HP tractor and how wide is your snow pusher?
It’s a 2019 kubota L4701…47 HP with a 6’ wide pusher
is the 4 series really a compact tractor?
Yes, compact tractors are generally considered from 30-65 HP. Subcompact are the little ones, and anything above 65 HP is considered a tractor (generally seen being used for agriculture)
Is that a 60 inch or is that A72? Let me know please, thanks.
The snow pusher is a 72”
Here in Wisconsin it is not legal to push snow across road way.
It’s not “legal” here either. But neither is crossing the road outside of a cross walk. And there ain’t no crosswalks in my town.
What size tractor
It’s a Kubota L4701, 47 HP
You must have some really nice big tires on your truck if that’s 2 feet of snow???😂😂😂
Know how they say camera adds 15 lbs? The lesser known saying is it subtracts 6”. 😉
My name is Elliot
That’s a great name!
Don't look like 2 ft to me. Might have to ask your wife how much you really got.
the camera adds 15 pounds, and subtracts 4 inches...or so I'm told
