Dixie Chopper Snow Thrower

This video shows a Dixie Chopper 27 hp Commercial Riding Mower with a 48" snow thrower attached to the
front.

The driveway is 125' long, there's approx 10" of heavy wet
snow on the ground,filmed in Massachusetts. The mower
deck was removed in about 30 Minutes, no tire chains
were needed, however, Some counter weights were
added to the rear of the mower.

The mower is wider than the snow thrower. This was only
a slight issue once when the user cleared a path around
the back of the house and tried to back up where the snow
was around 2'deep.

are you able to sell this blower and attachments yet for a silver eagle??

[sudburytaylor]

@firebirdonnos

Unfortunately not, Dixie won't approve it because installing it requires the mower deck to be removed and

they're trying to come up with a blower that won't make that necessary. Don't know if it'll happen. Sorry.

Would this snowthrower work on a Silver Eagle?

[sudburytaylor]

Yes, we have mounted it on a Silver Eagle already. Unfortunately, we can't sell it because our new dealer agreement won't allow us to unless Dixie has approved it. We're trying to get it approved now. If you want one send me your contact info and I'll let you know when I can sell it!

[sudburytaylor]

Yes, the new machines all have seat belts and

roll bars that can be angled down.

i all ways start the deck at low rpm i havent seen the new dixies but do the put seat belts on them now

@tjpungas

Do you have a Dixie Chopper or a Toro? It makes a difference because Dixie Choppers tend to have more Horsepower then the competition, and this really helps whether you're cutting grass or snow blowing.

@crackcrackkorn

They're both about the same in regards to belt life, the key is the engine speed at the time of blade engagement. But the electric clutch was necessary in order to meet federal safety guidelines.

[crackcrackkorn]

i like the manual clutch its easer on the belt i think but the electric is a lot safer

[sudburytaylor]

No it's not made by rad technologies. We're working with Dixie Chopper to have them mass produce the mounting hardware and get this set-up listed as an "approved" accessory.
