Hi, I have a 1976 ss16 that came with a rototiller and plow, i have wheel weights and chains. My question is it ok to use the rototiller for added weight for plowing snow. Im looking for input,good idea or bad idea? Thank You

I always used the tiller or disc for weight when I pushed snow. Even with wheel weights nad chains, the tractor is nearly helpless with the snowplow's weight on the front end. Adding the tiller makes all the difference in the world.

I almost forgot. You may want to put the snowplow on when you use the tilller to keep the front wheels on the ground. The front is awfully light with the tiller hanging of the rear.
